Leaning On A Lamp - George Formby.

Seq- B.Hill & B. Pritchard Jones. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Apr.2000.

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 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 anyway I know that she'll try.

Oh me, oh my,
I hope the little lady comes by.

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'd never leave me flat,
She's not a girl like that.

She's absolutely wonderful,
And marvelous and 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 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.

But anyway I know that she'll try.

Oh me, oh my,
I hope the little lady comes by.

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'd never leave me flat,
She's not a girl like that.

She's absolutely wonderful,
And marvelous and 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.

Good night ladies and gentlemen!!
