Lynn Anderson - Fancy слова песни

I remember it all very well lookin` back it was the summer I turned eighteenWe lived in a oneroom rundown shack on the outskirts of New OrleansWe didn`t have money for food or rent to say the least we were hard pressedThen mama spent every last penny we had to buy me a satin dancin` dressMama washed and combed and curled my hair and she painted my eyes and lipsThen I stepped into my satin dancin` dressThat had a split on the side clean up to my hipsIt was red velvet trim and it fit me good and starin` back from the lookin` glassThere stood a woman where a half grown kid had stoodHere`s your one chance Fancy don`t let me downHere`s your one chance Fancy don`t let me downMama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my neck and she kissed my cheekThen I saw the tears wellin` up in her troubled eyes when she started to speakShe looked at a pitful shack and then she looked at me and took a ragged breathYour pa`s run off and I`m real sick and the baby`s gonna starve to deathShe handed me a heart shaped locket that said to thine owenself be trueAnd I shivered as I watched a rouch crawl across the toe of my high heeled shoeIt sounded like somebody else that was talkin` askin` mama what do I doJust be nice to the gentlemen Fancy and they`ll be nice to youHere`s your one chance...Lord forgive me for what I do but if you want out well it`s up to youNow don`t let me down you better start movin` uptownWell that was the last time I saw my ma the night I left that rickety shackThe welfare people came and took the baby mama died and I ain`t been backBut the wheels of fate had started to turn and for me there was no way outAnd it wasn`t very long till I knew exactly what my mama`d been talkin` aboutI knew what I had to do but I made myself this solemn vowThat I was gonna be a lady someday though I didn`t know when or howI couldn`t see spendin` the rest of my life with my head hung down in shameI might have been born just plain white trash but Fancy was my nameHere`s your one chance...It wasn`t long after a benevolent man took me off the streetAnd one week later I was pourin` his tea in a five room motel suiteI charmed a king a congressman and an occasional aristocratThen I got me a Georgia mansion in an elegant New York townhouse flatAnd I ain`t done bad
