the lady is a tramp

• söz:lorenz hart
  muzik:richard rodgers
  1936 brodway müzikali "babes in arms" dan akıllarda kalan iki parçadan biri (diğeri my funny valentine)
  
  tramp kelimesinin aşağılayıcı tavrı burada alaycı bir ifade ile kullanılmıştır. değişen toplumda öne çıkan güçlü ve özgür kadın tipinin 1930'lu yıllarda toplumun muhafazakar kesimince nasıl yadırgandığını anlatır ilerici bir söylem taşır.
  
  caz standartı haline gelerek yıllardır ard arda seslendirildi. en bilinen yorumu frank sinatra'ya aittir:
  
  brodway'de
  babes in arms (1936) mitzi green
  
  1937'de
  tommy dorsey orkestrası, edythe wright

  sözleri şöyle:
  she gets too hungry, for dinner at eight
  she loves the theater, but doesn't come late
  she'd never bother, with people she'd hate
  that's why the lady is a tramp
  
  doesn't like crap games, with barons and earls
  won't go to harlem, in ermine and pearls
  won't dish the dirt, with the rest of those girls
  that's why the lady is a tramp
  
  she loves the free, fresh wind in her hair
  life without care
  she's broke, but it's o'k
  she hates california, it's cold and it's damp
  that's why the lady is a tramp
  
  doesn't like dice games, with sharpies and frauds
  won't go to harlem, in lincolns or fords
  won't dish the dirt, with the rest of those broads
  that's why the lady is a tramp
