The Lady Is A Tramp
Frank Sinatra & Sammy Davis Jr. Lyrics

She gets too hungry for dinner at eight
She has a hearty appetite and can't wait till eight for dinner

She likes the theatre and never comes late
She loves going to the theatre and always arrives on time

She never bothers with people she'd hate
She avoids people she dislikes and doesn't waste her time on them

That's why the lady is a tramp
Her independence and unconventional ways make her a tramp in society's eyes

Doesn't like crap games with barons or earls
She doesn't enjoy playing games with wealthy and snobbish people

Won't go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
She won't show off her wealth in Harlem and prefers to be modest

Won't dish the dirt with the rest of the girls
She won't gossip with the other women and prefers to keep to herself

That's why the lady is a tramp
Her unconventional values and behavior make her stand out from the typical social norms of a lady

She likes the free, fresh wind in her hair
She enjoys the feeling of freedom and the outdoors

Life without care
She prefers a carefree life, free of worry and stress

She's broke, and it's ok
She's financially struggling, but it doesn't bother her

Hates California, it's cold and it's damp
She despises the weather in California and finds it uncomfortable

That's why the lady is a tramp
Her unconventional views and behavior make her outsiders in society's eyes, but she's content with her life

She'll have no crap games with sharpies and frauds
She won't entertain offers from dishonest and manipulative people

And she won't go to Harlem in Lincolns or Fords
She won't flaunt her wealth or ride fancy cars in Harlem and prefers to blend in

And she won't dish the dirt with the rest of the broads
She won't gossip or talk behind the backs of other women and prefers to mind her own business

That's why the lady is a tramp
Her independence and defiance of social norms may label her as a tramp, but she marches to her own beat

She'd love the free, fresh wind in her hair
She aspires for freedom and independence, even if it means being unconventional

Life without care
Her carefree way of life is what sets her apart from others

She's broke, but it's ok
She's content with her lifestyle regardless of her financial situation

Hates California, it's so cold and so damp
She despises the weather in California and would rather be somewhere else

That's why the lady
She's an independent woman who won't conform to societal standards

That's why the lady
Her unique qualities make her stand out from the crowd and set her apart

That's why the lady is a tramp
Her non-conformist ways will continue to keep her labeled as a tramp, but she remains content in her choices.
