Luyện nghe bài hát Fancy

I remember it all very lookin' back it was the summer I turned eighteen
We lived in a oneroom rundown on the outskirts of New Orleans
We didn't have for food or rent to say the least we were hard pressed
Then mama spent every last penny we had to buy me a satin dress
Mama washed and combed and my hair and she painted my eyes and lips
Then I stepped into my satin dress
That had a split on the clean up to my hips
It was red velvet trim and it fit me good and back from the lookin' glass
There stood a where a half grown kid had stood
Here's your one chance Fancy let me down
Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me

Mama dabbed a little bit of on my neck and she kissed my cheek
Then I saw the wellin' up in her troubled eyes when she started to speak
She looked at a pitful shack and she looked at me and took a ragged breath
Your pa's run off and I'm real sick and the baby's starve to death
She handed me a shaped locket that said to thine owenself be true
And I shivered as I watched a rouch across the toe of my high heeled shoe
It like somebody else that was talkin' askin' mama what do I do
Just be to the gentlemen Fancy and they'll be nice to you
your one chance...

Lord forgive me for what I do but if you out well it's up to you
Now don't let me down you better movin' uptown
Well that was the last I saw my ma the night I left that rickety shack
The welfare people came and took the mama died and I ain't been back
But the wheels of fate had started to and for me there was no way out
And it wasn't long till I knew exactly what my mama'd been talkin' about
I knew what I had to do but I made myself this vow
That I was be a lady someday though I didn't know when or how
I couldn't see spendin' the rest of my life with my head hung in shame
I might have been born just plain trash but Fancy was my name
your one chance...

It wasn't long after a man took me off the street
And one later I was pourin' his tea in a five room motel suite
I a king a congressman and an occasional aristocrat
Then I got me a Georgia in an elegant New York townhouse flat
And I done bad
