Watching all the girls go by...

Standing On The Corner
Frank Loesser

Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Brother you don't know a nicer occupation
Matter of fact, neither do I
Than standing on the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by
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'll take me down to Mainstreet
And that's where I select my imaginary dish
Standing on the corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on the 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 the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by
Saturday and I'm so broke
Haven't got a girl and no joke
Still I'm living like a millionaire
When I take me down to Mainstreet
When I take me down to Mainstreet
And I review the harem
Parading for me there
Standing on the corner
Watching all the girls go by
Standing on the corner
Underneath the springtime sky
Brother, you can't go to jail
For what you're thinking
Or for the 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


The Four Lads, Standing on the Corner

Emerald head



We survived the terrible storms yesterday. For us it was just a string of horrific thunderstorms with driving rain and an electrified night sky. Several homes were struck and damaged by fires in a neighboring town, but it was nothing compared with the damage west of us. Springfield was literally turned upside down by tornadoes. A mix of warm humid air, and upper level swirling winds stirred up the rare weather event for Massachusetts. People are in shock and wandering through the damage, an official disaster area.

For the Record,
This day came in sunny with a dry fresh breeze. 62 degrees, 54 humidity, rising. barometer.
