Intro:
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.
*(Tempo Change)*
Verse 1:
I'm leaning on a lamp-post,
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 comes by.
Bridge 1:
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.
Chorus 1:
Oh, she's absolutely wonderful,
And marvellous and beautiful,
And anyone can,
Understand why,
I'm leaning on a lamp-post,
At the corner of the street,
In case a certain,
Little lady passes by.
(Tempo Change)
Verse 2:
I'm leaning on a lamp-post,
At the corner of the street,
In case a certain,
Little lady comes by.
Oh me,
Oh my,
I hope the little,
Lady goes:
Do do do dah,
Dah dee dee dee...
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 comes by.
Bridge 2:
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.
Chorus 2:
Oh, she's absolutely wonderful,
And marvellous and beautiful,
And anyone can,
Understand why,
I'm leaning on a lamp-post,
At the corner of the street,
In case a certain,
Little lady passes by.

Bridge 3:
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's not a girl like that.
Chorus 3:
Oh, she's absolutely wonderful,
And marvellous and beautiful,
And anyone can,
Understand why,
I'm leaning on a lamp-post,
At the corner of the street,
