George Formby - Leaning On A Lamp-Post lyrics

(Composed by George Gay) I'm leaning on a lamp, maybe you think, I look a tramp Or you may think I'm hanging 'round to steal a motor-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) 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 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 have to 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 lamp-post at the corner of the street In case a certain little lady pa**es by (Tempo change) 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 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 have to 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 lamp-post at the corner of the street In case a certain little lady pa**es by (Ukulele) (gd/naas)
