[

I'm leaning on a
[
G7
]
lamp, maybe you
[
C6
]
think, I look a
[
G7
]
tramp,
[
G7
]
Or you may
[
C
]
think I'm hanging
[
D7
]
'round to steal a car.
[
G7
]
But
[
C
]
no I'm not a
[
G7
]
crook, And if you
[
C6
]
think, that's what I
[
G7
]
look,
[
G7
]
I'll tell you
[
C
]
why I'm here, and
[
D7
]
what my motives are.
[
G7
]
[
C
]
I'm leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,
[
C
]
In case a
[
G7
]
certain little lady comes
[
C
]
by.
Oh
[
G7
]
me, oh
[
C
]
my, I
[
G7
]
hope the little
[
D7
]
lady comes
[
G
]
by.
[
C
]
I don't know if she'll get away, She doesn't always get away,
[
C
]
But
[
G7
]
anyhow I know that she'll
[
C
]
try.
Oh
[
G7
]
me, oh
[
C
]
my, I
[
G7
]
hope the little
[
D7
]
lady comes
[
G
]
by.
[
G7
]
There's no other girl I would wait for,
But
[
C
]
this one I'd break any date for,
I
[
D7
]
won't have to ask what she's late for,
[
D7
]
She
[
Dm6
]
wouldn't have to leave me flat, She's not a
[
G7
]
girl like that.
[
G7
]
Oh, she's
[
C
]
absolutely wonderful, and marvellous and beautiful.
[
C
]
And
[
G7
]
anyone can understand
[
C7
]
why,
I'm
[
F
]
leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street
[
F
]
In case a
[
C
]
certain little
[
G7
]
lady passes
[
C
]
by.
