The Lady Is A Tramp歌詞

The Lady Is A Tramp - Ella Fitzgerald
I've wined and dined on mulligan stew
And never wished for turkey
As I hitched and hiked and grifted 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 ca-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 never bother with people I hate
That's why the lady is a tramp
I don't like crap games with barons and earls
Won't go to harlem in ermine and pearls
Won'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 it's ok
Hate california it's cold and it's damp
That's why the lady is a tramp
I go to coney the beach is devine
I go to ballgames the bleachers are fine
I find a winchell and read every line
That's why the lady is a tramp
I like a prizefight that isn't a fake
I love 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 alone when I lower my lamp
That's why the lady is a tramp
