I'm the cat that got the cream

Haven't got a girl but I can dream

So I'll take me down to Main street
G Bm7-5 A7 G G/F# Am7 D7 Am7alt D7
And that's where I select my im - ag - in - ar - y dish
Standing on a corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on a 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 a corner watching all the girls.
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by.
Interlude 2:
Saturday and I'm so broke
Couldn't buy a gal a nickel coke.
Still I'm livin' like a millionaire
When I take me down to Main Street
And I survey the harem parading for me there.
Standing on a corner watching all the girls go by,
Standing on a corner giving all the girls the eye.
Brother you can't go to jail for what you're thinking,
Or for that 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.
