People, i was standing at my window

Tears running all down my cheeks

Yes, standing at my window

Tears running all down my cheeks

Well, i could see the woman i'm loving

Stopping everyone in the world she meets



Well, standing on the corner

Between 35th and main

Well, standing on the corner, people

Between 35th and main

Yeah, that's where a blind man's seen my woman

People, a dumb man called her name



He said, "oh, i'm blind

You brought eyesight and made me see"

"oh, i'm blind

You brought eyesight and made me see"

Yes, and the dumb man asked a question

"woman, who may your good man be?"



Yes, i'm standing by trembling, people

People, my heart's laying in my hand

I'm standing by trembling, darling

With my heart's laying in my hand

Well, i could hear my baby say

"lord, i ain't got no man"
