    ABOUT this song:
    "The Lady Is a Tramp" is a show tune from the 1937 Rodgers and Hart musical Babes In Arms. This song is a sophisticated and witty spoof of New York high society and its strict etiquette (the first line of the verse is significant: "I get too hungry for dinner at eight..."). It has become a classic song in the pop standards/vocal genre. Several stars have recorded their own renditions. It was recorded by Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald in 1950s and Shirley Bassey in the 1960s, becoming a signature song for each of them.
    LYRICS:
    I've wined and dined on mulligan stew
    on "Live at Talk of the Town" inserted:
    I have, I have
    And never wished for turkey
    I've hitched and hiked and drifted to
    From Maine to Alberquque
    Alas I missed the beaux arts ball
    And what is twice as sad
    I was never at a party
    Where they honoured Noel Coward
    on "Live at Talk of the Town":
    I was never at Barbra Streisands party - aaah
    And that make me bloody mad
    a ...(??) funny girl
    on "At The Pigalle":
    Alas I'm always known as being in the pie(??)
    I was never at Alma Cogans party
    A shame
    When she honoured Ringo Starr
    on "The Birthday Concert" & video "An Audience With Shirley Bassey":
    I was never at Hugh Grants party
    When he honoured the great divide - ouh
    His social circles move to fast for me
    My hobohemia is the place to be
    I get too hungry for dinner at eight
    I love the theatre but never come late
    I never bother with people I hate
    That's why this lady is a tramp
    I don'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 this lady is a tramp
    I like the free fresh wind in my hair
    Life without care
    I'm broke... that's oke
    Hate California, it's cold and it's damp
    That's why this lady is a tramp
    I like the free fresh wind in my hair
    on "Live at Talk of the Town": I like the free fresh wind in my wig
    Life without care
    I'm broke... that's oke
    Hate California, it's cold and it's damp
    That's why this lady is a tramp
    And I love it
    Yes, I'm a tramp, and I love it
    And I wish that you will come in my way yeah
    I wish that you will come in my way yeah
    I wish that you will come in my way
    Yes, I'm a lady
    But a tramp

    Shame on BBC did not give Dame Shirley Bassey a golden hand shake. After more than 50yrs in show business and performing so many series live shows on television. Rating on Shirley was very high and every Saturday night , millions of British and Australian fans stayed home to watch Shirley's performance. Shirley was a house hold name in Britain, Australia and South East Asia.
