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 that 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 could wait for, 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 marvellous 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 comes by.
