Ooo, I got a girl with a record machine

And when it comes to rockin', she's a queen

D

We love to dance on a Saturday night

A (break)

All alone when I can hold her tight

E7

But she lives on the 20th floor uptown

A (break)

The elevator's broken down

CHORUS:

A

So I walk 1, 2 flight, 3 flight, 4

5, 6, 7 flight, 8 flight, more

D

By 12th I'm startin' to drag

A

15th floor I'm ready to sag

E7 A

Get to the top, I'm too tired to rock

Verse 2:

Well, she called me up on the telephone

Said, "Come over, honey; I'm all alone"

I said, "Baby, you're mighty sweet

But I'm in bed with a-achin' feet"

This went on for a couple of days

But I couldn't stay away

(chorus)

(instrumental, same pattern as chorus)

Verse 3:

Well, they sent it to Chicago for repairs

Till it's fixed I'm usin' the stairs

Gotta get there before it's too late

My baby couldn't bear much to wait

All this climbin's gettin' me down

They'll find my corpse draped over a rail

(chorus; this time first line is "But I fly 1, 2...")
