Uptight (everything's Alright)

Baby, everything is all right, uptight, out of sight

Baby, everything is all right, uptight, out of sight

I'm a poorman's son, from across the railroad tracks

The only shirt I own is hangin' on my back

But I'm the envy of every single guy

Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye

When we go out stepping on the town for a while

My money's low and my suit's out of style

But it's all right if my clothes aren't new

Out of sight because my heart is true

She says baby everything is alright, uptight, out of sight

Baby, everything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight

I'm a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say

I guess her folks brought her up that way

The right side of the tracks, she was born and raised

In a great big old house, full of butlers and maids

No one is better than I, I know I'm just an average guy

No football hero or smooth Don Juan

Got empty pockets, you see I'm a poorman's son

She says give her the things that money can buy

But I'll never, never make my baby cry

And it's all right, what I can't do

Out of sight because my heart is true

She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight

Baby, everything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight

Baby, everything is alright, uptight, ah ah ah ah

Baby, everything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight

Baby, everything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight
