Tramp

Lyrics

Tramp
 What you call me?
 Tramp
 Oh you didn't
 You don't wear continental clothes or Stetson hats
 Well I tell you one doggone thing
 It makes me feel good to know one thing
 I know I'm a lover
 Matter of opinion, baby
 That's all right, Mama was
 So
 Papa too
 And I'm the only child
 Lovin' is all I know to do
 You know what, Otis?
 What?
 You're country
 That's all right
 You straight from the Georgia woods
 That's good
 You know what? You wear overalls
 And big old brogan shoes
 And you need a haircut, tramp
 Haircut? Woman, you foolin'
 Ooh, I'm a lover
 Mama was, Grandmama, Papa too
 They'll make you one
 Oh, that's alright
 And I'm the only son of a gun, yeah, this side of the sun
 Tramp
 That's right, that's what you are
 (Incomprehensible)
 You know what? I'm no tramp
 You know what, Otis?
 I don't care what you say, you're still a tramp
 What?
 That's right
 You haven't even got a fat bankroll in your pocket
 You probably haven't even got twenty-five cents
 I got six Cadillacs, five Lincolns
 Four Fords, six Mercuries, three T-Birds, Mustang
 Ooh, I'm a lover
 You're true about me
 My Mama was, my Papa too
 (Incomprehensible)
 I tell you one thing
 Well tell me
 I'm the only son of a gun, yeah this side of the sun
 Alright
 You're a tramp, Otis
 No I'm not
 I don't care what you say, you're still a tramp
 Don't call me that
 Look here you ain't got no money
 I got everything
 You can't buy me all those minks and sables and all that stuff I want
 I can buy you minks, rats, frogs, squirrels, rabbits
 Anything you want, woman
 Look, you can go out in the Georgia woods catch them, baby
 Oh, you foolin'
 You're still a tramp
 That's alright
 You a tramp, Otis, you just a tramp
 That's alright
 (Incomprehensible)
 You wear overalls, you need a haircut, baby
 (Incomprehensible)
 Cut off some of that hair off your head
 You think you a lover, huh?
