Du Barry Was A Lady Lyrics |
1943 American musical comedy film Du Barry Was a Lady - Du Barry Was A Lady Lyrics
Back in the 18th century when romance was in bloom And Louis XV wasn't just a sofa in a room A simple little country girl who knew a thing or two Got very, very chummy with His Majesty, King Lou
The people disapproved of her in no uncertain tone Still, they'd agree that Madam D was a power behind the throne Behind her back, they called her names. On that we will not tarry But to her face, with elegant grace, They said Madame Du Barry Madame, Madame, they said Madame Du Barry
Pеrhaps she was a gorgeous little hussy from Bordеaux But there's one thing we positively absolutely know
(Chorus) Du Barry was a lady No matter what they may say Du Barry was a lady The fairest gal of her day
She had to pull no strings for the King's blessing He fell in love with her French dressing
To marry this Du Barry was every nobleman's goal And put them all together they'd fill the Hollywood Bowl I couldn't tell you how, but she got along And if she was no lady, Fifty million Frenchmen were wrong Though she started out in squalor And though her past was shady You can bet your bottom dollar She ended up a lady Du Barry, Du Barry was a lady
