Verse 1
Ab
Well, I remember it all very well, lookin' back
Gb
It was the summer I turned eighteen

We lived in a one room, rundown shack
E
On the outskirts of New Orleans
Ab
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
E
To buy me a dancin' dress
Pre-chorus 1
Ab
My mama washed and combed
and curled my hair
Db
Ab
And then she painted my eyes and lips (lips)
Then I stepped into a satin dancin' dress
Db
that had a split from the side

clean up to my hip

where a half grown kid had stood

Mama dabbed a little bit

of perfume on my neck

in her troubled eyes
As she started to speak

She looked at our pitiful shack

and took a ragged breath
Db/F
She said, "Your pa's runned off
and I'm real sick
E
And the baby's gonna starve to death"
Ab
She handed me a heart shaped locket
Gb
that said "To thine own self be true"
Db/F
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl

across the toe of my high heel shoe

It sounded like somebody else it was talkin',

Verse 4
Ab
It wasn't long after a benevolent man
Took me in off the streets
One week later, I was pourin' his tea
In a five room hotel suite (yes she was)
Ab
I charmed a king, a congressman
And an occasional aristocrat
And then I got me a Georgia mansion
And an elegant New York townhouse flat
