Standing on the Corner
[Chorus]
Standin' on the corner watchin' all the guys go by
Standin' on the corner watchin' all the guys go by
Brother, you don't know a nicer occupation
Matter of fact, neither do I
Than standin' on the corner watchin' all the guys
Watchin' all the guys, watchin' all the guys go by
[Verse 1]
I'm the cat that got the cream
Haven't got a guy, but I can dream
Haven't got a guy, but I can wish
So I take me down to Main Street
And that's where I select my imaginary dish
[Chorus]
Standin' on the corner watchin' all the guys go by
Standin' on the corner givin' all the guys the eye
Sister, if you've got a rich imagination
Give it a whirl, give it a try
Try standin' on the cornеr watchin' all the guys
Watchin' all the guys, watchin' all the guys go by
[Verse 2]
Saturday, and I'm so brokе
Couldn't buy a guy a Diet Coke
Still I'm livin' like a millionaire
When I take me down to Main Street
And I review the fellas parading for me there
[Chorus]
Standin' on the corner watchin' all the guys go by
Standin' on the corner underneath a springtime sky
Sister, you can't go to jail for what you're thinking
Or for the "Ooh" look in your eye
You're only standin' on the corner watchin' all the guys
Watchin' all the guys, watchin' all the guys go by
