[00:00:00] Fancy - The Hit Crew (热歌组合) [00:00:12] Well I remember it all very well lookin' back [00:00:15] Was the summer I turned eighteen [00:00:17] Lived in a one room rundown shack [00:00:20] On the outskirts of New Orleans [00:00:22] We didn't have money for food or rent [00:00:24] To say the least we were hard pressed [00:00:27] Mama spent every last penny we had [00:00:29] To buy me a dancin' dress [00:00:32] Mama washed and combed and curled my hair [00:00:35] And she painted my eyes and lips [00:00:37] Then I stepped into a satin' dancin' dress [00:00:39] That had a split on the side [00:00:41] Clean up to my hip [00:00:43] It was red velvet trim and it fit me good [00:00:47] Standin' back from the lookin' glass [00:00:49] There stood a woman [00:00:50] Where a half grown kid had stood [00:00:52] She said here's your one chance [00:00:54] Fancy don't let me down [00:00:57] She said here's your one chance [00:00:59] Fancy don't let me down [00:01:05] Mama dabbled a little bit of perfume [00:01:07] On my neck and she kissed my cheek [00:01:10] And then I saw the tears wellin' up [00:01:11] In her troubled eyes as she started to speak [00:01:15] She looked at a pitiful shack [00:01:16] And she looked at me [00:01:18] And took a ragged breath [00:01:19] She said your Pa's runned off [00:01:21] I'm real sick [00:01:22] And the baby's gonna starve to death [00:01:25] She handed me a heart shaped locket that said [00:01:27] To thine own self be true [00:01:30] And shivered as I watched a roach crawl across [00:01:32] The toe of my high heeled shoe [00:01:35] It sounded like somebody else that was talkin' [00:01:37] Askin' mama what do I do [00:01:40] She said just be nice to the gentlemen Fancy [00:01:42] They'll be nice to you [00:01:45] She said here's your one chance [00:01:46] Fancy don't let me down [00:01:50] Here's your one chance [00:01:51] Fancy don't let me down [00:01:54] Lord forgive me for what I do [00:01:57] But if you want out well it's up to you [00:02:00] Now don't let me down [00:02:01] Now your mama's gonna move you uptown [00:02:08] That was the last time I saw my ma [00:02:10] Night I left that rickety shack [00:02:12] The welfare people came and took the baby [00:02:15] Mama died and I ain't been back [00:02:17] But the wheels of fate had started to turn [00:02:20] And for me there was no way out [00:02:23] Wasn't very long 'til I knew exactly [00:02:25] What my mama'd been talkin' about [00:02:28] I knew what I had to do [00:02:29] And I made myself this solemn vow [00:02:33] That I's gonna be a lady someday [00:02:35] Though I didn't know when or how [00:02:37] But I couldn't see spending the rest of my life [00:02:40] With my head hung down in shame [00:02:42] You know I might have been born [00:02:44] Just plain white trash [00:02:45] But Fancy was my name [00:02:47] She said here's your one chance [00:02:49] Fancy don't let me down [00:02:52] She said here's your one chance [00:02:54] Fancy don't let me down [00:03:00] Wasn't long after that benevolent man [00:03:02] Took me off the street [00:03:05] One week later I was pourin' his tea [00:03:07] In a five room hotel suite [00:03:09] And she why [00:03:10] And charmed a king a congressman [00:03:12] And an occasional aristocrat [00:03:15] And then I got me a Georgia mansion [00:03:17] And an elegant New York townhouse flat [00:03:19] And I ain't done bad she ain't done bad [00:03:30] Now in this world [00:03:31] There's a lot of self righteous hypocrites [00:03:33] Call me bad bad [00:03:35] Criticize mama for turning me out [00:03:38] No matter how little we had [00:03:40] But though I ain't had to worry 'bout [00:03:42] Nothing for nigh on fifteen years [00:03:45] Well I can still hear the desperation [00:03:47] In my poor mama's voice ringin' in my ears [00:03:50] Here's your one chance [00:03:51] Fancy don't let me down [00:03:55] Oh here's your one chance [00:03:57] Fancy don't let me down [00:04:00] Lord forgive me for what I do [00:04:03] But if you want out well it's up to you [00:04:05] Now don't let me down [00:04:06] Now your mama's gonna move you uptown
