Luyện nghe bài hát Fancy

I remember it all very well lookin' back it was the summer I turned
We lived in a oneroom rundown on the outskirts of New Orleans
We didn't have money for 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 and combed and curled my hair and she painted my eyes and lips

But the wheels of fate had to turn and for me there was no way out
And it wasn't very long I knew exactly what my mama'd been talkin' about
I knew what I had to do but I made myself solemn vow
That I was gonna be a lady someday though I didn't when or how
I couldn't see spendin' the rest of my life my head hung down in shame
I might have been born just white trash but Fancy was my name
your one chance...

And I ain't bad
