[HERMAN, JAKE, CLEM & AL]
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by

[HERMAN]
Brother, you don't know a nicer occupation
Matter of fact, neither do I

[HERMAN, JAKE, CLEM & AL]
Than standing on the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by

[HERMAN]
I'm the 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

[HERMAN, JAKE, CLEM & AL]
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on the corner giving all the girls the eye

[HERMAN]
Brother, if you've got a rich imagination
Give it a whirl, give it a try
[HERMAN, JAKE, CLEM & AL]
Try standing on the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by

[HERMAN]
Saturday, and I'm so broke
Couldn't buy a girl a nickel Coke
Still I'm living like a millionaire
When I take me down to Main Street
And I review the harem parading for me there

[HERMAN, JAKE, CLEM & AL]
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on the corner underneath a springtime sky

[HERMAN]
Brother, you can't go to jail for what you're thinking
Or for the "Ooh" look in your eye

[HERMAN, JAKE, CLEM & AL]
You're only standing on the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by
