Big girl in the red dress
|
She's just trying to impress us
|
And she's got the barley fever
|
But she doesn't make a sound
|
She's just hanging around
|
She's just hanging around
|
|
Down the court road early
|
With the Hustlers big and burly
|
There's a million of 'em selling
|
And the buyers can be found
|
They're just hanging around
|
They're just hanging around
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
Christ he told his mother
|
Christ he told her not to bother
|
Cos he's alright in the city
|
Cos he's high above the ground
|
He's just hanging around (hanging around)
|
He's just hanging around (hanging around)
|
He's just hanging around (hanging around)
|
He's just hanging around (hanging around)
|
|
One of 'em comes over
|
Got a monkey on his shoulder
|
And the monkey's getting grinner
|
But his eyes are on the ground
|
He's just hanging around
|
He's just hanging around
|
|
I'm moving to a coleheme
|
With the leather all around me
|
And the sweat is getting steamy
|
But their eyes are on the ground
|
They're just hanging around
|
They're just hanging around
|
|
[CHORUS 2x]
|
|
He's just hanging around (hanging around)
|
He's just hanging around
|
