The escorts are a singing group of young inmates
All long-term offenders, in for murder, robbery and other serious crimes
Today, though, their vocal talents were being put to use
As they made a record album being produced by a Motown veteran
George Kerr of East Orange, who told me how the project began
Ah, well, about two years ago I came into the prison with my wife and we heard this group
It was an amateur show, and it just knocked me off my feet
And then I tried through the prison officials for a couple of years
And they granted me, ahem, permission to come in
Look over your shoulder, you'll find me waiting, waiting
(Hey, baby, take a look over your shoulder)
Look over your shoulder (say, you, come over here)
Where, I'll be (and sit down and let me rap to you), waiting, waiting
I used to say I was sincere, baby
But when you needed me most, I wasn't there
(But if somehow you can forgive me)
Look over your shoulder (oh, your shoulder)
You'll find me (there I'm gonna be), waiting, waiting (just look)
Look over your shoulder (over your shoulder, girl)
Where I'll be (you're gonna find me, I'll be waiting), waiting, waiting
(Hmm)
I know you found someone new (show me that you love me)
Honey (just, show me that you love me)
And, girl, I haven't the right to keep asking you
(But if somehow you can forgive me)
Look over your shoulder (oh-oh-oh-over your shoulder)
You'll find me (there I'm gonna be), waiting, waiting (hey, baby, hey, baby)
Look over your shoulder (girl, look over your shoulder, yeah)
Where I'll be (you gonna find me), waiting, waiting
I know it's not easy to find someone who cares, (ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
And especially a love, baby, that's never been shared (shared)
(But if somehow you can forgive me)
If somehow you can forgive me
If somehow you can forgive me
If somehow you can forgive me
Look
Look, over your shoulder, you'll find me waiting, waiting (hey, baby)
Look over your shoulder (please take one look over your shoulder, oh, oh)
Where I'll be (there I'm gonna be), waiting, waiting (hey, baby)
Look over your shoulder (please take one look over your shoulder)
Where I'll be (there, there, there I'm gonna be, gonna be), waiting, waiting
(Hey) look over your shoulder, you find me, waiting, waiting
(Baby, please take one look over your shoulder) look over your shoulder
You find me, waiting, waiting (gonna be, gonna be)
(Hey, baby, just take one look over your shoulder) look over your shoulder
