Original Song by Steve Wonder

lyrics

Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is alright
Uptight, out of sight

1) Well I’m a poor man’s son from across the rail road tracks,
The only shirt I own is hanging on my back.
But I’m the envy of every single guy,
Since I’m the apple of my baby’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 alright if my clothes ain’t new.
Out of sight, because my heart is true. She says:

Refrain:

2) She’s a pearl of a girl, I guess that’s what you might say.
I guess her folks brought her up that way.
On the right side of tracks, she was born and raised,
In a great big house, full of butlers and maids.
She says: “No one is better the I!”
“But I know! I’m just an average guy.”
No football player or Don Juan
Got empty pockets, cause I’m a poor man’s son.
I can’t give her the things that money can buy,
But I never, never, never let my baby cry.
And it’s alright, what I can’t do
Out of sight because my heart is true. She says:

Refrain
