San Francisco Fan |
| San Francisco Fan |
| Loved a no-good gamblin' man |
| She drank the coffee dregs |
| So she could fry his eggs In a golden frying pan |
| Can-can-ed by command Of the Gold Rush Cafe Clan |
| She gave her man her pay |
| He gambled it away |
| Playing Chinatown fan-tan |
| Once they caught him cheatin' |
| And he knew that he was beaten |
| When a miner aimed a pistol at his head |
| Fanny when she’d seen him Ran and jumped right in between 'em |
| And she stopped a dozen slugs of poison lead |
| There was Fanny dyin' |
| While a hundred men stood cryin' |
| And the angels up above were cryin' too |
| When seven horses started draggin' |
| Fanny’s coffin in a wagon |
| Through a dusty Californian avenue |
| San Francisco Fan |
| Gave her life to save her man |
| A man who wasn’t worth |
| A shovelful of earth |
| From the grave of San Francisco Fan |
| San Francisco Fan |
| Loved a no-good gamblin' man |
| She drank the coffee dregs |
| So she could fry his eggs |
| In a golden frying pan |
| San Francisco Fan |
| Gave her life to save her man |
| A man who wasn’t worth |
| A shovelful of earth |
| From the grave of San Francisco Fan |
