The Lady Is A Tramp Lyrics
She likes the theater and never comes late
She never bothers with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp
Won't go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
Won't dish the dirt with the rest of the girls
That's why the lady is a tramp
Life without care
She's broke, and it's *"oke"*
That's why the lady is a tramp
She loves the theater but never comes late
She'd never bother with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp
And she won't go to Harlem in Lincolns or Fords
And she won't dish the dirt with the rest of the broads
That's why the lady is a tramp
Life without care
She's broke, but it's *"oke"*
That's why the lady
That's why the lady
That's why the lady is a tramp
excellent song!!!....i think this song is about a man singin about how this genuine lady is labeled a "tramp" by society because she cuts through superficial social customs-one can easily assume he likes her because of that
right, maestro, and also you get the feeling the other women are jelous of her because she's got real class.
Maestro's got it nailed. I tried to sing this to my girlfriend and she got offended. I shoulda sent her to this page
haha, clssic. probably should of thought that one through a little more.

great song, meanings been nailed already. just a great shot at how shallow and bitchy some women can be.

Everything is relative – someone’s insult can be another’s greatest complement.
yeah i got confused by it first but i reckon whats happened is some of the "broads" have been insulting her because she isnt like them, and she has a successful relationship with the narrator, so they called her a tramp.
and this song is what the narrator is sarcastically saying back to those bitchy women
Ella Fitzgeralds version is ace
Give a listen to Sinatra croonin' this beauty, then try singing or even humming the tune and I'm quite sure you'll gain a whole new appreciation for the talent that was Sinatra !!!
this song is such a classic i luv it prolly one of my favorite frank songs
I agree with maestro's meaning; a girl who doesn't act like everyone else and is criticized for it. I sure wish I could find a 'tramp'!
He changes the words sometimes to "this chick is a champ." I agree with the rest of you guys.
