I'm leaning [Ab] on the lamp, [Db] I know I look just [Ab] like a tramp,
[Db] Or you may think I'm hanging [Eb] round to [Ab] [Db] steal a car.

[Db] But no, I'm [Ab] not a crook, [Db] and if you think that's [Ab] what I look,
[Db] I'll tell you why I'm here [Eb] and what my [Ab] motives are.
[Db] I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street,
[Ab] In case a certain little lady [Db] comes by.
[Ab] Oh me, [Db] oh my, [Ab] I hope [Eb] the little lady [Ab] comes by.

But anyhow I know that [Db] she'll try.

[Db] Oh, she's absolutely beautiful and marvellous and wonderful,
[Ab] And anyone can understand [Db] why.
