Hello ladies and
gentlemen and welcome!
And now ladies and gentlemen,
live from the Branson
Variety Theater,
it's Merrill Osmond.
She gets hungry for dinner at eight
Loves the theater, doesn't come late
She'd never bother anyone she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp
Doesn't like dice 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 love the free, fresh
wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke, but that oke
She hates California
It's cold and it's damp
That's why the lady is a tramp
She gets far too hungry to
wait for dinner at eight
She loves the theater and
doesn't come too late
She'd never bother anyone she'd hate
Oh that's why the lady is a tramp
Aw she doesn't like dice games
with barons and earls
Won't go to Harlem
in ermine and pearls
Won't dish the dirt up
with the rest of the girls
That's why the lady is a tramp
I love the free fresh
wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke but that's oke
She loathes California
It's cold and it's damp
That's why the lady
That's why the lady
That's why the lady is a tramp
