Cottontail Songtext
von Louis Armstrong & Duke Ellington

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 take me down to Main Street
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

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
