* 2-bar intro
I've wined and dined on wonderful stew.
I've never wished for turkey.
I've pitched 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 honoured Noel Coward.
His social circles move too fast for me.
My hobohemia is the place to be.
I get too hungry for dinner at 8.
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 crack games with barons and earls,
Won't go to Harlem in omen 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 oak.
Hate California; it's cold and it's damp.
That's why this lady is a tramp.
* Repeat last stanza
* Coda And I love it.
Yes, I'm a tramp and I love it,
And I wish that you will come my way, yeah.
I wish that you will come my way, yeah.
I wish that you will come my way.
Yes, I'm a lady,
But a tramp.
