(4x) Watching girls go passing by It ain't the latest thing I'm just standing in a doorway I'm just trying to make some sense         Out of these girls go passing by The tales they tell of men I'm not waiting on a lady I'm just waiting on a friend          A smile relieves a heart that grieves Remember what I said I'm not waiting on a lady I'm just waiting on a friend (I'm Just Waiting on a friend.....) Don't need a whore I don't need no booze Don't need a virgin priest But I need someone I can cry to I need someone to protect          Making love and breaking hearts It is a game for youth But I'm not waiting on a lady I'm just waiting on a friend (I'm just waiting on a friend) . . .
