Leaning On a Lamppost |
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 |
I’m leaning on a lamppost at the corner of the street |
In case a certain little lady passes by |
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 the little lady goes wadda dadda da de bom bom |
There’s no other girl I could 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 |
I’m leaning on a lamppost at the corner of the street |
In case a certain little lady passes by |
