Biografía:
George Formby no es solamente un icono del entertainment británico, sino que su música fue influencia fundamental en el nacimiento del skiffle inglés, estilo claramente enraizado en el Country y en el folk estadounidenses. No sería exagerado afirmar, pues, que sin Woody Guthrie, Leadbelly o Formby, jamás habría existido Lonnie Donegan.
Además, fue precursor de un instrumento del que no se suele hablar demasiado: el banjolele (o banjulele)

Intro:
C G7 C6 C#dim G
I'm leaning on a lamp; maybe you think, I look a tramp,
C C6 D7 G7 C D#dim Dm7 G7
Or you may think I'm hanging 'round to steal a car.
C G7 C6 C#dim G7
But no, I'm not a crook, and if you think, that's what I look;
G Am D7 G7 Dm7 G7
I'll tell you why I'm here and what my motives are.
*(Tempo Change)*
Verse 1:
C
I'm leaning on a lamp-post, at the corner of the street,
G7 C
In case a certain little lady comes by.
Dm7 G7 C Am7
Oh me, oh my,
G D7 G G7
I hope the little lady comes by.
C
I don't know if she'll get away, she doesn't always get away,
G7 C
But anyhow I know that she'll try.
Dm7 G7 C Am7
Oh me, oh my,
G D7 G
I hope the little lady comes by.
Bridge 1:
G7 Dm7 G7
There's no other girl I would wait for,
Gaug C E7 Am
But this one I'd break any date for.
D7 Am7 D7
I won't have to ask what she's late for;
G7 Dm7 G7
She wouldn't leave me flat; she's not a girl like that.
Chorus 1:
C
Oh, she's absolutely wonderful and marvellous and beautiful,
G7 C7 Caug
And anyone can understand why;
F D7
I'm leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,
C G7 C
In case a certain little lady passes by.
(Tempo Change)
Verse 2:
C
I'm leaning on a lamp-post, at the corner of the street,
G7 C
In case a certain little lady comes by.
Dm7 G7 C Am7
Oh me, oh my,
G D7 G G7
I hope the little lady comes by.
C
I don't know if she'll get away, she doesn't always get away,
G7 C
But anyhow I know that she'll try.
Dm7 G7 C Am7
Oh me, oh my,
G D7
I hope the little lady goes;
G7 (n.C)
Wah dah, dah dah dah, dah dee, boom boom.
Bridge 2:
G7 Dm7 G7
There's no other girl I would wait for,
Gaug C E7 Am
But this one I'd break any date for.
D7 Am7 D7
I won't have to ask what she's late for;
G7 Dm7 G7
She wouldn't leave me flat; she's not a girl like that.
Chorus 2:
C
Oh, she's absolutely wonderful and marvellous and beautiful,
G7 C7 Caug
And anyone can understand why;
F D7
I'm leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,
C G7 C G7
In case a certain little lady passes by.
