Standin On The Corner

STANDIN’ ON THE CORNER As recorded by Slade (From the 1974 Album SLADE IN FLAME) [Intro] [Verse 1] Standin’ on the corner handbag on her thigh Standin’ in the shadows giving all the boys the eye Does anybody wanna try? Standin’ on the corner hand back on her hip Standin’ in the doorway giving all the boys some lip Does anybody wanna dip? So look out now ’cos I might be over tonight [Chorus] She’s a sure shining shimmy shootin’ high falutin’ rootin’ tootin’ baby yeah And she’s found herself a shimmy shootin’ high falutin’ rootin’ tootin’ man; She’s a hard casin’ fast racin’ male chasin’ boot lacin’ baby yeah! And to get her evil way she’ll do most anything her devil says she can [Verse 2] Standing on the corner burning up inside Bending over backwards wants her fire engine tried Does anybody need the ride? Leaning out the window giving out her points Learned on teacher’s writin’ now it’s on the low down joints Does anybody need the points? So look out now ’cos I might be over tonight [Chorus] She’s a sure shining shimmy shootin’ high falutin’ rootin’ tootin’ baby yeah And she’s found herself a shimmy shootin’ high falutin’ rootin’ tootin’ man; She’s a hard casin’ fast racin’ male chasin’ boot lacin’ baby yeah! And to get her evil way she’ll do most anything her devil says she can [Guitar Solo]                   [Verse 3] She’s standin’ on the corner with her hand back on her thigh And then she’s standin’ in the shadows givin’ all the boys the eye Does anybody wanna try?
