Up tight, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is alright
Up tight, clean out of sight
I'm a poor man's son from
across the railroad track
The only suit I own is hanging on my back
I am the envy of every guy I am
the apple of my baby's eye
When we go out a -steppin'
But it's alright if my clothes are new
You know it's out of sight,
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, alright, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, alright, clean out of sight
Pearl of a girl, guess what you might say I
guess that her folks brought her up that
The right side of the tracks
Full of butlers and maids
She says that no one is better than I
And I know I'm just an average guy
No football hero, no smooth on wind I
got empty pockets you see
Because I'm a poor man's son
And I can't give her things
She says it's alright, what I can do
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, alright, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, alright, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is alright, uptight,
alright, up tight, alright
Baby, everything is alright, uptight,
alright, clean, clean out the sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, all right, clean out of sight
