(Bobbie Gentry)
I remember it all very well lookin` back It was the summer I turned eighteen We lived in a oneroom rundown shack On the outskirts of New Orleans. We didn`t have money for food or rent To say the least we were hard pressed Then mama spent every last penny we had To buy me a satin dancin` dress. Mama washed and combed and curled my hair And she painted my eyes and lips Then I stepped into my satin dancin` dress That had a split on the side clean up to my hips. It was red velvet trim and it fit me good And starin` back from the lookin` glass There stood a woman Where a half grown kid had stood. Here`s your one chance Fancy Don`t let me down Here`s your one chance Fancy Don`t let me down. Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my neck And she kissed my cheek Then I saw the tears wellin` up in her troubled eyes When she started to speak. She looked at a pityful shack and then she looked at me And took a ragged breath Your pa`s run off and I`m real sick And the baby`s gonna starve to death. She handed me a heart shaped locket That said to thine ownself be true And I shivered as I watched a rouch crawl Across the toe of my high heeled shoe. It sounded like somebody else that was talkin` Askin` mama what do I do Just be nice to the gentlemen Fancy And they`ll be nice to you. Here`s your one chance Fancy Don`t let me down. Here`s your one chance Fancy Don`t let me down. Lord, forgive me for what I do But if you want out well it`s up to you Now don`t let me down You better start movin` uptown. Well, that was the last time I saw my ma The night I left that rickety shack The welfare people came and took the baby Mama died and I ain`t been back. But the wheels of fate had started to turn And for me there was no way out And it wasn`t very long till I knew Exactly what my mama`d been talkin` about. I knew what I had to do But I made myself this solemn vow That I was gonna be a lady someday Though I didn`t know when or how. I couldn`t see spendin` the rest of my life With my head hung down in shame I might have been born just plain white trash But Fancy was my name. Here`s your one chance Fancy Don`t let me down. Here`s your one chance Fancy Don`t let me down. It wasn`t long after a benevolent man Took me off the street And one week later I was pourin` his tea In a five room motel suite. I charmed a king, a congressman And an occasional aristocrat Then I got me a Georgia mansion In an elegant New York townhouse flat. And I ain`t done bad...
