Might be The Pawnshop in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, which was a hit for Guy Mitchell in the 50s, but could be older. That contains the line "I wait every night by the clock"

Sorry, the subject line should read "by the clock" not "by the lock." Also, this is a song that would have been popular in the US.
Thanks again.

Hello,
I am looking for a song that contained the line "by the clock" that would have been popular in the 1910s or possibly early 1920s. Any help would most be appreciated!
