LEANING ON THE LAMP POST
Herman's Hermits

                
I'm leaning on the lamp
                 
Maybe you think I look a tramp
                                    
Or maybe you think I'm 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 and what my motives are

                                    
I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street
                                  
In case a certain little lady comes by
        
Oh me, oh my
                                
In case a certain little lady comes by


Oh, she's wonderful, she's marvelous

She's fabulous, she's beautiful
                         
And anyone can understand why
                                               
I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street
                                
In case a certain little lady comes by


She doesn`t always get away

She cannot always get away
                          
But anyway I know that she`ll try
       
Oh me, oh my
                           
I hope that little lady comes by

                              
She`s not the kind of girl to be late for
                              
But this one I`d break any date for
                              
I won`t have to ask what she`s late for

She`d never leave me flat

She`s not a girl like that


Oh, she's wonderful, she's marvelous

She's fabulous, she's beautiful
                         
And anyone can understand why
                                               
I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street
                                
In case a certain little lady comes by

                                    
I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street
                                  
In case a certain little lady comes by
        
Oh me, oh my
                                
In case a certain little lady comes by


Oh, she's wonderful, she's marvelous

She's fabulous, she's beautiful
                         
And anyone can understand why
                                               
I'm leaning on the lamp post at the corner of the street
                                
In case a certain little lady comes by


I think most of it is correct. The 5th stanza was slightly problematic. I hope I've got
