letra de the lady is a tramp (1952) - lena horne

Loading...

i’ve wined and dined on mulligan stew
and never asked for turkey
as i hitched and hiked and drifted, too
from maine to albuquerque
alas, i missed the beaux arts ball
and what is twice as sad
i was never at a party where they honored noel c’ad
but social circles spin too fast for me
my hobohemia is the place to be

i get too hungry for dinner at eight
i like the theater, but never come late
i nеver bother with peoplе i hate
that’s why the lady is a tramp

i don’t like cr-p games with barons and earls
won’t go to harlem in ermine and pearls
don’t dish the dirt with the rest of the girls
that’s why the lady is a tramp

i like the free, fresh wind in my hair
life without care
i’m broke – that’s oke!

hate california, it’s cold and it’s damp
that’s why the lady is a tramp!
i go to coney – the beach is divine
i go to ballgames, the bleachers are fine
i get the column and read every line
that’s why the lady is a tramp

i like a prizefight when it’s not a fake
i like the rowing on central park lake
i go to opera and stay wide awake
that’s why the lady is a tramp

i like the green grass under my shoes
what can i lose?
i’m flat! that’s that!

i’m all alone when i lower my lamp
that’s why the lady is a tramp!
