I remember it all very well lookin` back It was the summer I turned eighteen We lived in a one room, 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 dancin` dress Mama washed and combed and curled my hair And she painted my eyes and lips then I stepped into a satin` dancin` dress that had a split on the side clean up to my hip It was red velvet trim and it fit me good Standin` back from the lookin` glass There stood a woman where a half grown kid had stood She said here`s your one chance Fancy don`t let me down Here`s your one chance Fancy don`t let me down Mama dabbled a little bit of perfume on my neck And she kissed my cheek Then I saw the tears wellin` up in her troubled eys When she started to speak She looked at a pitiful shackAnd then she looked at me and took a ragged breath She said 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 own self be true And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl accross The toe of my high heeled shoe It sounded like somebody else that was talkin` Askin` Mama what do I do She said be nice to the gentlemen Fancy And they`ll be nice to you She said here`s your one chance Fancy don`t let me down Here`s your one chance Fancy don`t let me downLord 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 `til I knew exactly What my Mama`d been talkin` about I knew what I had to do but I made myself this solemn vowThat I`s gonna be a lady someday Though I didn`t know when or how I couldn`t see spending the rest of my life With my head hung down in shame you know 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 that benevolent man Took me off the street And one week later I was pourin` his tea In a five room hotel suite I charmed a king, 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 Now in this world there`s a lot of self-righteous hippocrates That would call me bad And criticize Mama for turning me out No matter how little we had But though I ain`t had to worry `bout nothin` For nigh on fifteen years I can still hear the desperation in my poor Mama`s voice ringin` in my ear She said, 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 Mama`s gonna help you uptown I guess she did
