I am leaning on a lampost - The Londoners

I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,

In case a certain little lady goes by.

Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady passes 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 passes 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 never leave me flat,

She’s not a girl like that.

She’s absolutely wonderful, and marvelous and beautiful.

And anyone can understand why, WHY?
