Waiting On Something Good
I was walkin, just about 3rd and st marks
But it ain't the same as it was last time I was here
So I stood there, watchin the light as it changed
Remember that time in the rain when we ran through the streets
Yeah we were waiting on something good to go down
Just waiting on something good
Yeah we were waiting on something good to go down
Just waiting on something good
Sally, I used to show up at her door
But I don't do that anymore, she answers my call
She says "baby, don't you go breakin' your back
To buy me the things that I lack
Cuz I will get 'em myself
Yes and I don't need nobodys help
Yes and I'll love you just the same
If you ain't got a dime to your name"
Cuz I'm waiting on something good to go down
Just waiting on something good
Yeah we were waiting on something good to go down
Just waiting on something good
On the counter, in the back of the hotel bar
I was joining a hotel choir and I just could not
And it was b-right and the tragedies led the whole gang
And we all stood up and we sang an old gospel song
Yeah but we didn't sing very long
Cuz we were waiting on something good to go down
Just waiting on something good
Yeah we were waiting on something good to go down
Just waiting on something good
Esperando algo bueno
Caminaba, justo por la 3ra y la calle St. Marks
Pero no es lo mismo que la última vez que estuve aquí
Así que me quedé allí, viendo la luz cambiar
Recuerdo aquella vez bajo la lluvia cuando corrimos por las calles
Sí, estábamos esperando que algo bueno sucediera
Solo esperando algo bueno
Sí, estábamos esperando que algo bueno sucediera
Solo esperando algo bueno
Sally, solía aparecer en su puerta
Pero ya no lo hago, ella contesta mis llamadas
Ella dice 'cariño, no te mates trabajando
Para comprarme cosas que me faltan
Porque yo misma las conseguiré
Sí, y no necesito la ayuda de nadie
Sí, y te amaré igual
Aunque no tengas un centavo en tu nombre'
Porque estoy esperando que algo bueno suceda
Solo esperando algo bueno
Sí, estábamos esperando que algo bueno sucediera
Solo esperando algo bueno
En la barra del hotel, en la parte de atrás
Me uní a un coro del hotel y simplemente no podía
Y estaba bien y las tragedias llevaron a todo el grupo
Y todos nos levantamos y cantamos una vieja canción gospel
Sí, pero no cantamos por mucho tiempo
Porque estábamos esperando que algo bueno sucediera
Solo esperando algo bueno
Sí, estábamos esperando que algo bueno sucediera
Solo esperando algo bueno
