Luyện nghe bài hát Fancy

I remember it all very lookin' back
It was the I turned eighteen
We in a one room, rundown shack
On the of New Orleans
We didn't have money for food or
To say the least we were hard
Then Mama spent every penny we had
To buy me a dress

Mama washed and combed and my hair
And she my eyes and lips then I stepped into a satin
Dancin' dress that had a on the side clean up to my hip
It was red velvet trim and it fit me
Standin' back from the glass
There stood a woman a half gown kid had stood

She said here's your one chance Fancy let me down
Here's one chance Fancy don't let me down

Mama a little bit of perfume on my neck
And she kissed my
Then I saw the tears wellin' up in her eyes
When she started to
She at a pitiful shack
And then she looked at me and took a breath
She said 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 own be true"
And I shivered as I watched a roach across
The toe of my high heel
It sounded like somebody else that was
Askin' what do I do
She said just be nice to the gentlemen
And they'll be to you

She said your chance Fancy don't let me down
Here's your one chance don't let me down
Lord forgive me for I do, but if you want out
it's up to you
Now don't let me down you start movin' uptown

Well, that was the time I saw my Ma
The night I left that shack
The people came and took the baby
Mama died and I been back

But the wheels of had started to turn
And for me was no way out
And it very long 'til I knew exactly
my Mama's been talkin' about

I what I had to do but I made myself this solemn vow
That I's gonna be a lady
Though I don't when or how
I couldn't see spending the of my life
my head hung down in shame you know
I might have been just plain white trash
But Fancy was my

Here's your one chance don't let me down
Here's your one Fancy don't let me down

It wasn't very long a benevolent man
Took me off the
And one later I was pourin' his tea
In a five hotel suite

I a king, a congressman
And an aristocrat
Then I got me a Georgia
In an elegant New York townhouse
And I ain't bad

Now in this world there's a lot of hypocrite
That would me bad
And criticize Mama for me out
No how little we had

But though I had to worry 'bout nothin'
For nigh on fifteen
I can still hear the in my poor
voice ringin' in my ear

She said, your one chance Fancy don't let me down
your one chance Fancy don't let me down
Lord, me for what I do
But if you out well it's up to you
Now let me down
Your Mama's help you uptown

I she did
