1
I've wined and dined on Mulligan Stew, and never wished for Turkey
2
As I hitched and hiked and grifted too, from Maine to Albuquerque
3
Alas, I missed the Beaux Arts Ball, and what is twice as sad
4
I was never at a party where they honored Noel Ca-ad (Coward)
5
But social circles spin too fast for me
6
My "hobohemia" is the place to be
7
I get too hungry, for dinner at eight
8
I like the theater, but never come late
9
I never bother, with people I hate
10
That's why the lady is a tramp
11
I don't like crap games, with barons and earls
12
Won't go to Harlem, in ermine and pearls
13
Won't dish the dirt, with the rest of the girls
14
That's why the lady is a tramp
15
I like the free, fresh wind in her hair
16
Life without care
17
I'm broke, it's OK
18
Hate California, it's cold and it's damp
19
That's why the lady is a tramp
20
I go to Coney, the beach is divine
21
I go to ballgames, the bleachers are fine
22
I follow Winchell, and read every line
23
That's why the lady is a tramp
24
I like a prizefight, that isn't a fake
25
I love the rowing, on Central Park lake
26
I go to Opera and stay wide awake
27
That's why the lady is a tramp
28
I like the green grass under my shoes
29
What can I lose, I'm flat, that's that
30
I'm alone when I lower my lamp
31
That's why the lady is a tramp
