Cab Calloway & His Orchestra-歌词

San Francisco Fan - Cab Calloway/Cab Calloway & His Orchestra

San Francisco Fan

Loved a no-good gambling man

She drank the coffee dregs so she could fry his eggs

In a golden frying pan

Can-canned by command

Of the Gold Rush Cafe clan

She gave her man her pay

He gambled it away

Playing Chinatown fan-tan

Once they caught him cheating

And he knew that he was beaten

When a miner aimed a pistol at his head

Fanny when she seen 'em

Ran and jumped right inbetween 'em

And she stopped a dozen slugs of poison lead

There was Fanny dying

While a hundred men were crying

And the angels up above were crying too

When seven horses started dragging

Fanny's coffin in a wagon

Down a dusty California avenue

San Francisco Fan

Gave her life to save her man

A man who wasn't worth a shovelful of earth

From the grave of San Francisco Fan

San Francisco Fan
