[Cab Calloway And His Orchestra - Eadie Was A Lady lyrics]
Talking over bygone days
Mabel sporty, fat and over forty
Said, "Remember Edith Hayes"
Eadie was a sucker for a bottle and glass
But in spite of everything that gal had class
Then one summer, she wed a corset drummer
Struck with her refine like way
Eadie was a lady (Eadie was a lady)
Though her past was shady
(Though her past was shady)
Eadie had class, with a capital K
(She was lady, she was a lady)
Though her life was merry
(Though her life was merry)
She had savior fairy (Lots of savior fairy)
Eadie did things in a ladylike way
(Eadie was a lady, Eadie was a lady)
She would have a golden toothpick handy
After meals she'd flashed it about
'Member how she used to drink her brandy
With her finger sticking well out
Oh, Eadie was a lady (Eadie was a lady)
You can ask PI o'Grady (Ask PI o'Grady)
Eadie had class, with a capital K
Oh, Eadie was a lady you can ask PI o'Grady
Eadie was a lady, you can ask PI o'Grady
That Eadie was a lady, oh!
