Lyrics
Wichita's one and only burlesque theater presents
Miss Gypsy Rose Lee
Let me entertain you
Let me make you smile
Sing out, Louise!
Let me do a few tricks
Some old and then some new tricks
I'm very versatile
And if you're real good
I'll make you feel good
I'd want your spirit to climb
So let me entertain you
We'll have a real good time
Yes sir!
We'll have...
A real good time!
Do something!
Yeah!
Take something off!
Momma!
A glove! But say something!
Hello! Hello...everybody!
My name is Gypsy Rose Lee What's yours!
Mr. Conductor, if you please!
So, let me entertain you
And we'll have a real good time, yes, sir!
We'll have
A real good time!
And now, Minsky's well famous Burlesque
Presents the queen of the strip-tease, the incomparable
Miss Gypsy Rose Lee and our salutes to the Garden of Eden!
Pick up your apples girls and back to the trees!
Bon soir, monsieur et monsieur!
Je m'appelle Gypsy Rose Lee
And that concludes my entire performance in French
I've been too busy learning Greek
Where were you last night?
Some man accused me of being an ecdysiast
Do you know what that means? Do you?
Do you? Oh, you do!
Aha! He's embarrassed!
Don't be embarrassed...I like men without hair!
An ecdysiast is one who or that which
Shed its skin. In vulgar parlance: a stripper
But I'm not a stripper!
At these prices I'm an ecdysiast!
And if you're real good
I'll make you feel good
I want you spirit to climb
Let me entertain you
And well have a real good time, yes, sir!
We'll have...
A real good time!
