Baby, everything is all right Uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right Uptight, out of sight
I'm a poor man's son from across the railroad track
Only shirt I own is hanging on my back
But I'm the envy of every single guy
Said I'm the apple of my girl's eye
We go out steppin' on the town for a while
My money's low and my suit's all styled
But it's all right if my clothes aren't new
Uptight, because my heart is true
She said, baby, everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight
Uptight, clean out of sight
Uptight, clean out of sight
Uptight, clean out of sight
She's a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say
I guess all the folks brought her up that way
The right side of track, she wasn't born in late
And a great big old heart for a butler's dementia
She said, no one is better than I
I know I'm just an average guy
No football hero or a smooth-talking broad
Got an empty pocket, you see, I'm a poor man's son
Can't give her the things that money can't buy
But I'll never, never, never make my baby cry
And it's all right what I can't do
Uptight, because my heart is true
She said, baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
