Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Brother, you don't know a nicer occupation
Matter of fact, neither do I
Than standing on the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls
Go by
I'm a cat that got the cream
Haven't got a girl, but I can dream
Haven't got a girl, but I can wish
So I take me down to Main Street and that's where I select my imaginary dish
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on the corner giving all the girls the eye
Brother, if you've got a rich imagination
Give it a whirl, give it a try
Try standing on the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls
Go by
Saturday, and I'm so broke
Haven't got a girl, and that's no joke
Still I'm living like a millionaire
When I take me down to Main Street and I review the harem parading for me there
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on the corner underneath the springtime sky
Brother, you can't go to jail for what you're thinking
Or for the "Woo!" look in your eye
You're only standing on the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls
Go by
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by Brother, you don't know a nicer occupation Matter of fact, neither do I Than standing on the corner watching all the girls Watching all the girls, watching all the girls Go by I'm a cat that got the cream Haven't got a girl, but I can dream Haven't got a girl, but I can wish So I take me down to Main Street and that's where I select my imaginary dish Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by Standing on the corner giving all the girls the eye Brother, if you've got a rich imagination Give it a whirl, give it a try Try standing on the corner watching all the girls Watching all the girls, watching all the girls Go by Saturday, and I'm so broke Haven't got a girl, and that's no joke Still I'm living like a millionaire When I take me down to Main Street and I review the harem parading for me there Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by Standing on the corner underneath the springtime sky Brother, you can't go to jail for what you're thinking Or for the "Woo!" look in your eye You're only standing on the corner watching all the girls Watching all the girls, watching all the girls Go by Explain Request ×
