Lyrics of The Lady Is a Tramp by Queen Latifah
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 o'k
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 follow 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 all alone when I lower my lamp
That's why the lady, that′s why the lady
That's why the lady is a tramp
Writer(s): Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart
