I tried life as a sailor, a pirate and a thief
But it was not till now that I knew what I should be
I swaggered through the brothel doors and marched straight ahead
When I reached the counter I looked at the girl and said
I wanna be a trollop a harlot or a whore
I wanna be a jezebele a floozy and what's more
I was meant to be a strumpet I'm just a trampet heart
So I'm here to be a prostitute a hooker or a tart
Well I guessed it shocked her she didn't know what to say
Ten she said thats impossible it doesnt work that way
Ill demonstrate just what I got was the pitch I gave
She nearly had a stroke but she wasnt quite that way
S he told me that I should talk to all the girls upstairs
Theres no approval I could find meaning more than theirs
When I reache the second floor they poored into the hall
And I said hello ladies I've something to tell you all
I wanna be a trollop a harlot or a whore
I wanna be a jezebele a floozy and what's more
I was meant to be a strumpet I'm just a trampet heart
So I'm here to be a prostitute a hooker or a tart
They laughed and said theres no way it never has been done
Butt a girl said lets find out and let me in room #1
And six hours later when I left room 24
I knew that I had managed to satisfy the floor
They said theres a girl upstairs for special clientel
For you to have a chance shes tje one to really tell
I find the stairs knocked on the door and said to her hello
Before we start anything theres something you should know
I wanna be a trollop a harlot or a whore
I wanna be a jezebele a floozy and what's more
I was meant to be a strumpet I'm just a trampet heart
So I'm here to be a prostitute a hooker or a tart
She said that it was funny and she laughed at my plan
And told me I could never hack it because I was just a man
So I said let me prove it and I did lickity split
And trust me when I tell l you boys I took my time with it
She panted I admit it iwas wrong right from the start
Go upstairs and see the madam and your work here if your smart
I went to the madams office and let mysefl right in
Finally I thought then I said said to her with a grin
I wanna be a trollop a harlot or a whore
I wanna be a jezebele a floozy and what's more
I was meant to be a strumpet I'm just a trampet heart
So I'm here to be a prostitute a hooker or a tart
Ill give you just one chance to prove your not out of your head
And I knew that I had proved it when she look at me and said
Gee you found the spot I thought was legend or a myth
You make a perfect case that I find hard to argue with
Women now are working on the ships docks and shores
And should have the same options as the men who came before
So now I have a job taking care of ladies needs
And all you jealous bastards should come sing along with me
I wanna be a trollop a harlot or a whore
I wanna be a jezebele a floozy and what's more
I was meant to be a strumpet I'm just a trampet heart
So I'm here to be a prostitute a hooker or a tart
