Frank Sinatra - Lady is a Tramp, The (Very Good Years)
Writer(s): Rodgers/Hart
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
The Lady is a Tramp - Frank Sinatra (03:14)
I know that this song already is on Youtube but I couldn't help myself. This is probably my
favourite song and this version is really cool. He sang this in Pal Joey (1957).
It SOUNDS like a Billy May arrangement. It's ACTUALLY NELSON RIDDLE imitating Billy May's style. Nelson also imitated Billy on "South Of The Border" and "I've Got The World On A String".

@Shamrocked4Ever "To each his own is a beautiful song yes, but the most famous recording is by the great Eddy Howard and was the number one song of 1946.
