The Strip |
| Wichita’s one and only |
| Burlesque theater presents |
| Mama, Miss Gypsy Rose Lee |
| Gypsy Rose Louise |
| Let me entertain you |
| Let me make you smile |
| Sing out, Louise |
| Let me do a few tricks |
| Some old and then some new tricks |
| I’m very versatile |
| And if you’re real good |
| I’ll make you feel good |
| I’d want your spirits to climb |
| So let me entertain you |
| And we’ll have a real good time |
| Yes sir, we’ll have a real good time |
| Do something, yeah, yeah |
| Take something off, momma |
| A glove, give him a glove, say something |
| Hello everybody |
| My name is Gypsy Rose Lee |
| What’s yours? |
| Sir, Mr. Conductor, if you please |
| So let me entertain you |
| And we’ll have a real good time |
| Yes sir, we’ll have a real good time |
| The Alhambra theater of Philadelphia |
| The city of brotherly love |
| Brings all you brothers |
| A liberty bell you’ll want to ring and ring and ring |
| Let me entertain you |
| Let me make you smile |
| I’m beginning to like this |
| Ooh, I like that, I think I’ll do that again |
| My mother, who got me into this business |
| Always told me, ‽Make them beg for more |
| And then don’t give it to them†|
| But I’m not my mother |
| So if you beg for more |
| I’ll give it to you |
| And we’ll have a real good |
| Beg |
| And now ladies and gentlemen |
| Minsky’s well famous Burlesque |
| Takes great pride and pleasure |
| In presenting in her personal flesh |
| The one and only, the now and forever |
| Miss Gypsy Rose Lee and our salute |
| To the Garden of Eden |
| Pack up your apples girls and back to the trees |
| Bon soir, monsieur et monsieur |
| Je m’appelle Gypsy Rose Lee |
| And that concludes my entire performance in French |
| I’ve been too busy learning Greek |
| Some men accused me of being an ecdysiast |
| Do you know what that means? |
| Ah he does |
| He’s embarrassed, don’t be embarrassed |
| I like man without hair |
| Don’t worry, fellas, I know you’re up there, up there |
| You know what ecdysiast means |
| An ecdysiast is one who or that which |
| Sheds its skin in vulgar parlams, a stripper |
| Huh, but I’m not a stripper |
| At these prices I’m an ecdysiast |
| And if you’re real good I’ll make you feel good |
| I want you spirit to climb |
| Let me entertain you |
| And well have a real good time |
| Yes sir, we’ll have a real good time |
