| I’m leaning on a lamp, maybe you think I look a tramp
|
| Or you may think I’m hanging round to steal a car
|
| But no, I’m not a crook, and if you think that’s what I look
|
| I’ll tell you why I’m here and what my motives are
|
| I’m leaning on a lamppost at the corner of the street
|
| In case a certain little lady comes by
|
| Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady comes by
|
| I don’t know if she’ll get away, she doesn’t always get away
|
| But anyhow I know that she’ll try
|
| Oh me, oh my, I hope that little lady comes by
|
| There’s no other girl I would wait for
|
| But this one I’d break any date for
|
| I won’t have to ask what she’s late for
|
| She wouldn’t leave me flat, she’s not a girl like that
|
| Oh she’s absolutely wonderful and marvelous and beautiful
|
| And anyone can understand why
