[Bill Kenny]
A moment after dark, around the park, an old-fashion gent goes parading
Dressed in funny clothes but singing as he goes, the lamplighter's serenade
The old boy loves to talk with couples on the walk, but when it's half after love time
He reaches for his stick, and from his bag of tricks, he lights every star in the sky
And if a lady or her beau should answer no, he sprinkles their hearts with his magic
Then he steals away to sing another day, the lamplighter's serenade
[Orville "Hoppy" Jones]
A moment after dark, 'round the park, an old-fashion gent goes parading
All dressed up in funny clothes but he's always singing as he goes, the lamplighter's serenade
You know the old boy loves to talk with all the couples on the walk, but man, when it's half after love time
He reaches for his stick, and then from his bag of tricks, he lights up every star in the sky
[Bill Kenny]
And if a lady or her beau should answer no, he sprinkles their hearts with his magic
Then he steals away to sing another day, the lamplighter's serenade
