🎵 Luyện Nghe Bài Hát: Fancy - Reba McEntire

 I remember it all very well lookin' 
 It was the summer I  eighteen
 We  in a one room, rundown shack
 On the outskirts  New Orleans
 We didn't have money for food or 
 To  the least we were hard pressed
 Then Mama spent every last  we had
 To  me a dancin' dress
 
 Mama  and combed and curled my hair
 And she  my eyes and lips
 Then I stepped into a satin dancin' dress that had a split from  side clean up to my hips
 It was red velvet trimmin' and it fit me 
 Standin' back from the lookin' 
 There  a woman where a half grown kid had stood
 
 She said here's your one chance Fancy  let me down
 She  here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down
 
 Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my 
 Then she  my cheek
 And then I saw the  wellin' up in her troubled eyes
 as she started to 
 She looked at our  shack
 And then she  at me and took a ragged breath
 She said your Pa's run'd  I'm real sick
 And the baby's gonna starve to 
 
 She handed me a heart shaped locket that 
 "To thine own self be 
 And I shivered  I watched a roach crawl across
  toe of my high heel shoe
 It sounded  somebody else that was talkin'
 Askin' Mama what do  do
 She said just be nice to the  Fancy
 They'll be nice to 
 
 She said here's your one chance Fancy don't let me 
 She said here's  one chance Fancy don't let me down
 Lord forgive me  what I do, but if you want out
 it's up to 
 don't let me down now your  gonna move you uptown.
 
 That was the  time I saw my Mama
 The night I left  rickety shack
 The welfare people came  took the baby
 Mama died  I ain't been back
 
 But the  of fate had started to turn
 And  me there was no way out
 It wasn't very long 'til I knew 
 What my Mama  talkin' about
 
 I knew what I  to do and I made myself this solemn vow
 I was gonna  a lady someday
 Though I didn't know when  how
 But I couldn't see spendin' the rest  my life
 With my head hung down  shame
 You  I might have been born just plain white trash
 But Fancy was  name
 
 She said here's your  chance Fancy don't let me down
 She said here's your one chance Fancy  let me down
 
 It wasn't  long after a benevolent man
 Took me in off  streets
 One week later I  pourin' his tea
 In a five room hotel suite [yes she 
 
 I charmed a king,  congressman
 And an  aristocrat
 And then  got me a Georgia mansion
 And an elegant New  townhouse flat
 And I ain't gone back [she ain't gone 
 
 Now in this world there's a lot  self-righteous hypocrites
 That'd call me  [bad]
 And criticize  for turning me out
 No matter how little  had
 
 But though I ain't  to worry 'bout nothin'
  nigh on fifteen years
 I can still hear the  in my poor
 Mama's  ringin' in my ear
 
 Here's your  chance Fancy don't let me down
 here's your one chance Fancy don't let  down
 Lord, forgive me for what I 
 But if you want out it's up  you
 don't let me down, 
 Mama's gonna move  uptown
 
 Oh, and I guess  did.
