Leaning On A Lamppost - Original Cast Recording/1986

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 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 wouldn't 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 a lamppost at the corner of the street
In case a certain 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 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 comes by
