Shirley Bassey - The Lady Is A Tramp lyrics

I've wined and dined on mulligan stew

on "Live at Talk of the Town" inserted: I have, I have

And never wished for turkey

I've hitched and hiked and drifted to

From Maine to Alberquque

Alas I missed the beaux arts ball

And what is twice as sad

I was never at a party

Where they honoured Noel Coward

on "Live at Talk of the Town":

I was never at Barbra Streisands party - aaah

And that make me bloody mad

a ...(??) funny girl

on "At The Pigalle":

Alas I'm always known as being in the pie(??)

I was never at Alma Cogans party

A shame

When she honoured Ringo Starr

on "The Birthday Concert" & video "An Audience With Shirley Bassey":

I was never at Hugh Grants party

When he honoured the great divide - ouh

His social circles move to fast for me

My hobohemia is the place to be

I get too hungry for dinner at eight

I love the theatre but never come late

I never bother with people I hate

That's why this 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 those girls

That's why this 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 this lady is a tramp

I like the free fresh wind in my hair

on "Live at Talk of the Town": I like the free fresh wind in my wig

Life without care

I'm broke... that's oke

Hate California, it's cold and it's damp

That's why this lady is a tramp

And I love it

Yes, I'm a tramp, and I love it

And I wish that you will come in my way yeah

I wish that you will come in my way yeah

I wish that you will come in my way

Yes, I'm a lady

But a tramp
