I'm leaning on the lamp

Maybe you think I look a tramp

Or maybe you think I'm 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 and what my motives are



I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street

In case a certain little lady comes by

Oh me, oh my

In case a certain little lady comes by



Oh, she's wonderful, she's marvelous

She's fabulous, she's beautiful

And anyone can understand why

I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street

In case a certain little lady comes by



She doesn't always get away

She cannot always get away

But anyway I know that she'll try

Oh me, oh my

I hope that little lady comes by



She's not the kind of girl to be late for

But this one I'd break any date for

I won't have to ask what she's late for

She'd never leave me flat

She's not a girl like that



'onderful, she's marvelous

She's fabulous, she's beautiful

And anyone can understand why

I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street

In case a certain little lady comes by



I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street

In case a certain little lady comes by

Oh me, oh my

In case a certain little lady comes by



Oh, she's wonderful, she's marvelous

She's fabulous, she's beautiful

And anyone can understand why

I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street

In case a certain little lady comes by
