Second Hand Rose - Live Version

Father has a business
Strictly second-hand
Everything from tooth-picks to a baby grand
Stuff in our apartment
Came from Father's store
Even things I'm wearing, someone wore before

It's no wonder that I feel abused
I never get a thing that ain't been used

I'm wearing second-hand hats
Second-hand clothes
That's why the call me Second Hand Rose
Even our piano in the parlor
Father bought for ten cents on the dollar

Second-hand pearls
I'm sick of second-hand curls
I never get a single thing that's new
Even Jake the plumber, he's the man I adore
Had the nerve to tell me he's been married before
Everyone knows that I'm just Second Hand Rose
From Second Avenue
From Second Avenue, new?

(One more time!)
Everyone knows that I'm just (Second Hand Rose)
(The Second-hand) not quite! Let's see if you know the fills
Once while strolling through the Ritz, a girl got my goat
She nudged her friend and said, "Oh, look, there goes my old fur coat!"
(You don't need me!)

Everyone knows that I'm just Second Hand Rose
From Second Avenue (good!)
Second Avenue (right!)
Just Second Avenue
