Second Hand Rose (Live)
Father has a business, Strictly second-hand, Everything from tooth-picks to a baby grand. Stuff in our apartment, Came from Father's store, Even things I'm wearing, someone wore before. It's no wonder that I feel abused; I never get a thing that ain't been used!
I'm wearing second-hand hats, Second-hand clothes, That's why the call me Second Hand Rose. Even our piano in the parlor, Father bought for ten cents on the dollar. Second-hand pearls, I'm wearing second-hand curls, I never get a single thing that's new! Even Jake the plumber, he's the man I adore, Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Had the nerve to tell me he'd been married before! Everyone knows that I'm just Second Hand Rose, From Second Avenue.
I'm wearing second-hand shoes, Second-hand hose, All the girls hand me their second-hand beaus! Even my pajamas, when I don them, Have somebody else's 'nitials on them. Second-hand rings, I'm sick of second-hand things, I never get what other girliess do. Once while strolling through the Ritz, a girl got my goat, She nudged her friend and said, 'Oh, look, there goes my old fur coat!' Everyone knows that I'm just Second Hand Rose, From Second Avenue.
