Luyện nghe bài hát Fancy

I remember it all very well back
It was the summer I turned
We in a one room, rundown shack
On the of New Orleans
We have money for food or rent
To say the we were hard pressed
Then spent every last penny we had
To buy me a dancin'

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

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

Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my
And she my cheek
Then I saw the tears up in her troubled eyes
When she to speak
She at a pitiful shack
And she looked at me and took a ragged breath
She said Pa's run off and I'm real sick
And the baby's gonna starve to

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

She said here's your chance Fancy don't let me
Here's one chance Fancy 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 better movin' uptown

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

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

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

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

It wasn't very after a benevolent man
me off the street
And one week later I was his tea
In a five room suite

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

Now in this world a lot of self-righteous hypocrite
That would me bad
And criticize for turning me out
No how little we had

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

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

I she did
