BARBRA STREISAND - Second Hand Rose lyrics
rate meFather has a business strictly second hand<br>Everything from toothpicks to a baby-grand<br>Stuff in our apartment came from father's store<br>Even things I'm wearing someone wore before<br>It's no wonder that I feel abused<br>I never get a thing that ain't been used<br><br>I'm wearing second hand hats<br>Second hand clothes<br>That's why they call me<br>Second hand rose<br><br>Even our piano in the parlor<br>Father bought for ten cents on the dollar<br>Second hand pearls<br>I'm sick of second hand curls<br>I never get a single think that's new<br>Even jake, the plumber, he's a man I adore<br>Had the nerve to tell me he's been married before!<br><br>Everyone knows that I'm just<br>Second hand rose<br>From second avenue!<br>From second avenue! nu!<br><br>One more time!<br>Everyone knows that I'm just<br>Second hand rose<br>(from second avenue!)<br>From what? <br>Let's see if you know the fills!<br>Once while strooling<br>Through the ritz a girl got my goat...<br>(she nudged her friend<br>And said oh look there goes<br>My old fur coat)<br>You don't need me!<br><br>Everyone knows that I'm just<br>Second hand rose<br>From second avenue!<br>(ya can't beat the egg-creams!)<br>Good! second avenue!<br>(there is more between me<br>And fifth avenue, I tell ya)<br>Right! second avenue!
