the lady is a tramp

i've wined and dined on mulligan stew

and never wished for turkey

as i hitched and hiked and grifted too

from maine to albuquerque

alas

i missed the beaux arts ball

and what is twice as sad

i was never at a party where they honored noel ca-ad

but social circles spin too fast for me

my hobohemia" is the place to be
