Barbra Streisand - Second Hand Rose текст песни

Father has a business strictly second hand

Everything from toothpicks to a baby-grand

Stuff in our apartment came from fathers store

Even things Im wearing someone wore before

Its no wonder that I feel abused

I never get a thing that aint been used

Im wearing second hand hats

Second hand clothes

Thats why they call me

Second hand rose

Even our piano in the parlor

Father bought for ten cents on the dollar

Second hand pearls

Im sick of second hand curls

I never get a single think thats new

Even jake, the plumber, hes a man I adore

Had the nerve to tell me hes been married before!

Everyone knows that Im just

Second hand rose

From second avenue!

From second avenue! nu!

One more time!

Everyone knows that Im just

Second hand rose

(from second avenue!)

From what?

Lets see if you know the fills!

Once while strooling

Through the ritz a girl got my goat...

(she nudged her friend

And said oh look there goes

My old fur coat)

You dont need me!

Everyone knows that Im just

Second hand rose

From second avenue!

(ya cant beat the egg-creams!)

Good! second avenue!

(there is more between me

And fifth avenue, I tell ya)

Right! second avenue!
