LEANING ON A LAMPPOST
Written by Noel Gay
As sung by George Formby

VERSE: I'm leaning on a lamp.
Maybe you think I look a tramp,
Or you may think I'm hanging 'round to steal a motorcar.
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.

CHORUS: 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 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.
She's absolutely beautiful and marvellous and wonderful
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.
