This is played in a reggae style and ends with Eugene playing a steel drum solo.

[Am] [Em] [Dm] [E7]
Ooohooooh
[Am]Its a cold night, [Em]beneath the street light, theres a man whose pants are too tight.
[Dm]Oh no, his [E7]pants are too tight.

My pants are too tight.
[Am]He stands there, [Em]and empty stare, trying to make enough money for his cab fare home.
[Dm]He'll have to [E7]walk home tonight.

Don't have enough for the ride.
[Am]The streets are cruel, [Em]he tries to act cool, he goes to work with only his work tool.
[Dm]You can put [E7]away your tool, Jermaine.
