Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Standin' on the corner

Watchin' all the girls go by

Standin' on the corner

Watchin' all the girls go by

[Verse 2]

Brother, you don't

Know a nicer occupation

Matter of fact, neither do I

Than standin' on the corner

Watchin' all the girls

Watchin' all the girls

Watchin' all the girls go by

[Verse 3]

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

[Verse 4]

Standin' on the corner

Watchin' all the girls go by

Standin' on the corner

Givin' all the gils the eye

Brother, if you've got

A rich imagination

Give it a whirl, give it a try

Try standin' on the corner

Watchin' all the girls

Watchin' all the girls

Watchin' all the girls go by

[Verse 5]

Saturday and I'm so broke

Couldn't buy a girl a nickel Coke

Still, I'm livin' like a millionaire

When I take me down to Main Street

And I review the harem

Parading for me there

[Verse 6]

Standin' on the corner

Watchin' all the girls go by

Standin' on the corner

Underneath the Springtime sky

Brother, you can't

Go to jail for what you're thinkin'

Or for the "Ooh" look in your eye

You're only standin' on the corner

Watchin' all the girls

Watchin' all the girls

Watchin' all the girls go by
