The Man in the Raincoat - Marion MarloweHmmmm hmmmm
Late in the eveningOut on the squareA man in a raincoatStanding thereWe met by the lampWhere the newsboy criesHe stole my heart with his laughing eyesWe smiled as we climbed on the old streetcarI blushed when he askedAre you traveling farThe next time we met the sun shone all day
We walked and we talked 'til the evening was gray
Hmmmm hmmmm
He took me out dancing
Dancing 'til dawnNo happier coupleHad ever been born
I felt like a queenAnd he was my king
He borrowed some money to buy me a ring
But I'm still alone now the cards are all downHe's taken my money and skipped out of town
And now when I pass the place where we met
I'm wondering if I could forgive and forget
Though bitter is my heartAnd foolishly proud
I still keep on lookingWhen out in a crowdFor a man in a raincoat
Standing there
With laughing eyes and dark brown hairHmmmm hmmmm
Hmmmm hmmmm
