Luyện nghe bài hát Fancy

I remember it all very well lookin'
It was the I turned eighteen
We lived in a one room, rundown
On the outskirts of New
We didn't have money for or rent
To say the we were hard pressed
Mama spent every last penny we had
To buy me a dancin'

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

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

Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my
And she kissed my
Then I saw the tears wellin' up in her eyes
she started to speak
She at a pitiful shack
And then she looked at me and a ragged breath
She your Pa's run off and I'm real sick
And the baby's starve to death

She me a heart shaped locket that said
"To own self be true"
And I shivered as I a roach crawl across
The toe of my high heel
It sounded somebody else that was talkin'
Askin' what do I do
She said be nice to the gentlemen Fancy
And be nice to you

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

Well, was the last time I saw my Ma
The night I left that rickety
The welfare people came and the baby
Mama died and I ain't back

But the wheels of had started to turn
And for me was no way out
And it wasn't very long 'til I knew
What my been talkin' about

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

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

It very long after a benevolent man
me off the street
And one week later I was his tea
In a five hotel suite

I charmed a king, a
And an occasional
Then I got me a Georgia
In an elegant New York townhouse
And I done bad

Now in world there's a lot of self-righteous hypocrite
would call me bad
And Mama for turning me out
No matter how we had

But I ain't had to worry 'bout nothin'
For nigh on years
I can still hear the in my poor
Mama's ringin' in my ear

She said, your one 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 out well it's up to you
Now let me down
Mama's gonna help you uptown

I she did
