  • Verse 1
    remember 
    it all 
    very 
    well 
    lookin' 
    back 

    it was the 
    sum
    mer 
    I turned 
    eighteen 

    We 
    lived 
    in a 
    oneroom rundown 
    shack 

    on 
    the outskirts 
    of New 
    Orleans 

    We 
    didn't 
    have 
    money 
    for food 
    or 
    rent 
    to 

    say the 
    least 
    we were 
    hard 
    pressed 

    Then 
    mama 
    spent 
    every 
    last 
    penny 
    we had 

    to 
    buy me 
    satin 
    dancin' 
    dress 

    Mama 
    washed 
    and 
    combed 
    and curled 
    my 

    hair 
    and 
    she 
    painted 
    my 
    eyes 
    and lips 

    Then I 
    stepped 
    into 
    my 

    satin 
    dancin' 
    dress 

    That 
    had a split 
    on 
    the 
    side 

    clean 
    up to 
    my 
    hips 

    It was 
    red 
    velvet 
    trim 
    and 
    it fit 
    me good 
    and star

    in' 
    back 
    from the 
    lookin' 
    glass 

    There stood 
    a woman 
    where 

    half 
    grown 
    kid 
    had stood 

    Here's 
    your one 
    chance 
    Fancy 

    don't 
    let 
    me down 

    Here's 
    your one 
    chance 
    Fancy 

    don't 
    let 
    me down 

    Mama 
    dabbed 
    a little 
    bit 
    of perfume 
    on 

    my 
    neck 
    and 
    she kissed 
    my cheek 

    Then 
    saw 
    the tears 
    wellin' 
    up 
    in her troubled 

    eye
    when she 
    started 
    to speak 

    She 
    looked 
    at a 
    pitful shack 
    and 
    then she 

    looked 
    at me 
    and 
    took 
    a ragged 
    breath 

    Your 
    pa's 
    run 
    off 
    and I'm 
    real 
    sick 
    and 

    the 
    baby's 
    gonna 
    starve 
    to death 

    She 
    handed 
    me 
    a heart 
    shaped 
    locket 

    that said 
    to thine 
    owenself be true 

    And 
    shivered 
    as 
    I watched 
    rouch crawl 

    across 
    the toe 
    of 
    my 
    high 
    heeled 
    shoe 

    It 
    sounded 
    like 
    somebody 
    else 
    that 
    was 

    talkin' 
    askin' 
    mama 
    what 
    do 
    I do 

    Just 
    be 
    nice 
    to the 
    gentlemen 
    Fancy 
    and 

    they'll 
    be 
    nice 
    to you 

    Here's 
    your one 
    chance... 

    Lord 
    for
    give me 
    for what 
    do 
    but 
    if 

    you want 
    out 
    well 
    it's up 
    to you 

    Now 
    don't let 
    me 
    down you 

    better 
    start 
    movin' 
    up
    town 

    Well 
    that 
    was 
    the last 
    time 
    I saw 
    my ma 

    the 
    night I 
    left 
    that 
    rickety 
    shack 

    The 
    welfare 
    people 
    came 
    and took 
    the baby 

    mama 
    died 
    and 
    I ain't 
    been 
    back 

    But the 
    wheels 
    of 
    fate 
    had started 
    to turn 

    and for 
    me there 
    was 
    no 
    way out 

    And 
    it 
    wasn't 
    very 
    long 
    till I 
    knew 
    exactly 

    what 
    my 
    mama'd been 
    talkin' 
    about 

    I knew 
    what I 
    had 
    to do 
    but 
    made 

    my
    self 
    this solemn 
    vow 

    That 
    I was 
    gonna 
    be 
    a lady 
    someday 

    though 
    did
    n't 
    know 
    when 
    or how 

    couldn't 
    see 
    spendin' 
    the rest 
    of my 

    life 
    with my 
    head 
    hung 
    down 
    in shame 

    might have 
    been 
    born 
    just plain 
    white 

    trash 
    but 
    Fancy 
    was 
    my 
    name 

    Here's 
    your one 
    chance... 

    It 
    wasn't 
    long 
    after 
    a benevolent 

    man 
    took 
    me 
    off 
    the street 

    And 
    one 
    week 
    later 
    I was 
    pourin' 
    his 

    tea 
    in a 
    five 
    room 
    motel 
    suite 

    I charmed 
    a king 
    congressman 

    and 
    an occa
    sional 
    aristocrat 

    Then 
    got 
    me 
    a Georgia 
    mansion 
    in 

    an elegant 
    New 
    York 
    townhouse 
    flat 

    And I 
    ain't 
    done 
    bad

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
