Up Tight - Stevie Wonder Cover
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, outta sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, outta sight
I'm a poor man's son from across the railroad tracks
The only shirt I own is hanging on my back
I'm the envy of every single guy
Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye
Go out stepping on the town for a while
Nothing's ruining my super style
She said (all right)
If my clothes aren't new
(Outta sight)
Because my heart is true
She said, baby, everything is alright
Uptight, clean outta sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, outta sight
She's a pearl of a girl, I guess that you might say
I guess her folks brought her up this way
On the right side of the tracks, she was born and raised
In a great big old house, with butlers and maids
She said (no one)
Is better than I
(I know)
I'm just an average guy
No football hero
No smooth Don Juan
I got empty pockets, you see I'm a poor man's son
Can't give her the things that money can buy
But I'll never, never make my baby cry
But it's (all right)
What I can't do
(Outta sight)
Because my heart is true
She said, baby, everything is alright
Uptight, clean outta sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, clean outta sight (outta sight)
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, outta sight (clean outta sight)
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean outta sight (outta sight)
Uptight, outta sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, outta sight
I'm a poor man's son from across the railroad tracks
The only shirt I own is hanging on my back
I'm the envy of every single guy
Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye
Go out stepping on the town for a while
Nothing's ruining my super style
She said (all right)
If my clothes aren't new
(Outta sight)
Because my heart is true
She said, baby, everything is alright
Uptight, clean outta sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, outta sight
She's a pearl of a girl, I guess that you might say
I guess her folks brought her up this way
On the right side of the tracks, she was born and raised
In a great big old house, with butlers and maids
She said (no one)
Is better than I
(I know)
I'm just an average guy
No football hero
No smooth Don Juan
I got empty pockets, you see I'm a poor man's son
Can't give her the things that money can buy
But I'll never, never make my baby cry
But it's (all right)
What I can't do
(Outta sight)
Because my heart is true
She said, baby, everything is alright
Uptight, clean outta sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, clean outta sight (outta sight)
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, outta sight (clean outta sight)
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean outta sight (outta sight)
