Artist/Band: Ethel Merman
Lyrics for Song: Eadie Was A Lady
Lyrics for Album: Cocktail Hour: Ethel Merman [2005]



Maud and Mabel, seated at a table


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 winter, she wed a Chinese printer


Struck her with refined like ways





But 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





Though her life was merry (Though her life was merry)


She had savoir fairey (Talking of savoir fairey)


Eadie did things in a ladylike way





She would have a golden toothpick handy


After meals sheâ??d flash it about


Remember how she used to drink her brandy


With her finger sticking well out





For Eadie was a lady (Eadie was a lady)


Ask P. I. Oâ??Grady


Eadie had class, with a capital K
