Hostess With The Mostes’ - Ethel Merman (艾索尔·摩曼)[00:00:00]

Call Me Madam[00:00:19]

I was born on a thousand acres of Oklahoma land[00:00:23]

Nothing grew on the thousand acres for it was gravel and sand[00:00:27]

One day father started digging in a field[00:00:32]

Hoping to find some soil[00:00:35]

He dug and he dug and what do you think [00:00:37]

Oil oil oil[00:00:41]

The money rolled in and I rolled out with a fortune piled so high[00:00:45]

Washington was my destination[00:00:49]

And now who am I [00:00:52]

I'm the chosen party giver[00:00:58]

For the White House clientele[00:01:01]

And they know that I deliver[00:01:04]

What it takes to make 'em jell[00:01:07]

And in Washington I'm known by one and all[00:01:09]

As the hostess with the mostes' on the ball[00:01:15]

They could go to Elsa Maxwell[00:01:20]

When they had an axe to grind[00:01:23]

They could always grind their axe well[00:01:25]

At the parties she designed[00:01:28]

Now the hatchet grinders all prefer to call[00:01:31]

On the hostess with the mostes' on the ball[00:01:36]

I've a great big bar and good caviar[00:01:41]

Yes the best that can be found[00:01:44]

And a large amount in my bank account[00:01:46]

When election time comes round[00:01:49]

Entertaining vodka drinkers[00:01:52]

Is a job they give to me[00:01:54]

Making nice guys out of stinkers[00:01:57]

Seems to be my cup of tea[00:01:59]

What they really need behind the iron wall[00:02:02]

Is the hostess with the mostest on the ball[00:02:07]

In the handbag that I'll carry[00:02:12]

There's a precious little note[00:02:15]

To their highnesses from Harry[00:02:17]

Introducing me he wrote[00:02:20]

I'll appreciate a favor large or small[00:02:23]

For the hostess[00:02:28]

Who the hostess with the mostes' on the ball[00:02:29]
