Текст песни Leaning on a Lampost - George Formby

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.
