Waiting on a Friend (Live 1981)

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend

[Saxophone Solo 1]

{Bridge}
Don't need a whore
I don't need no food
Don't need a virgin priest
But I need someone I can cry to
I need someone to protect

[Chorus]
I'm 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
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
I'm just waiting on a friend

[Saxophone Solo 2]

[Outro]
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
Just waiting on a friend
Waiting on a friend
Waiting on a friend

[Audience Applause]
