[Verse 1]
[G]I'v[Dsus4]e wined a[G]nd dined on[Am] Mulligan Stew,[D]
[G]and never wished for Tur[E]key
[A]As I hitched and hiked and [D]grifted too,
[A]from Maine to Albuquer[F#]que
[B]Alas, [D]I m[A]issed the Beaux Art[D]s Bal[E]l,
and [Em]what is [A]twice [D]as sad
I [G]was never at a party where
[C]they [G]honored [D]Noel [G]Ca- [E]ad
But [Em]so cial circles sp[A]in too fast for me[Am][A]
[D]My "hobo[Bb]hemia" is the place [C]to be
[G]

[Verse 2]
I get [Bb]too hungry, for din[Am]ner at [D]eight
I [G]like [D]the theater, [Bb]but neve[Am]r come late[D]
[G]I never b[F]other,[Bb]
with [C]people [Am]I ha[F]te[Cm]
[G]That's why the[C] lady is [Am]a tra[D]mp[G][D]

[Bb]crap games,
with [Am]barons and [D]earls[G]

[G]Won't dish the[Bb] dirt,
with [C]the rest [Am]of t[Ebdim]he girls
[G]That's why the[Am] lady is [D]a t[G]ramp
I like [Am]the free,

[Verse 4]
[D]fresh [G]wind in my [Bb]hair
[Am]Life without [D]care
[G]I'm bro[E]ke, it'[Am]s OK[D]
[G]Hate Cali[Bb]fornia,
it's [Am]cold and it's [C]damp[G]
[D]That's [G]why [Eb]the lady [Am]is a[D] tra[G]mp[D][C][D]
[G]I

[Verse 5]
[Bm]go t[D]o Coney, t[Bb]he beach [Am]is divine[D]
[G]I go [Bm]to[Bb]
[Am]ballgames, the bleachers are [D]fine
[G]I follow Winchell,
[Bb]and read[C] every[Em] line[Am][Adim][F]
[G]That's why the[Eb] lady[Am]
[C]is [D]a t[G]ramp[Am][D]

[Verse 6]
I [Bm]like [Bb]a prizefight, that [Am]isn't a [D]fake
[G]I love the[Bb] rowing, on Cen[Am]tral Park lak[D]e
[G]I go to Ope[Bb]ra and sta[C]y wid[A]e
[Adim]awake[F#dim][D]
[G]That's why the[Am] lady is [D]a t[G]ramp
I [Am]like the

[Verse 7]
green [D]grass
[G]under my [Bb]shoes
[Am]What can [D]I lose, [Am]I'm f[E]lat, t[Bb]hat's that[Eb]
[Ab]I'm alon[Abm]e when I low[Bbm]er my la[Bb]mp[C]
[Fm]That's [E]why [Bbm]the lady is a
[Ab]tramp
[Db][Bbm][Ab]
