paroles de chanson I'm Still Here (From "Follies") - Paul Gemignani & Carol Burnett



Good times and bum times, I′ve seen them all
And, my dear, I'm still here
Plush velvet sometimes
Sometimes just pretzels and beer, but I′m here
I've stuffed the dailies in my shoes
Strummed ukuleles, sung the blues
Seen all my dreams disappear but I'm here.
I′ve slept in shanties, guest of the W.P.A., but I′m here
Danced in my scanties
Three bucks a night was the pay, but I'm here
I′ve stood on bread lines with the best
Watched while the headlines did the rest
In the depression was I depressed?
Nowhere near, I met a big financier and I'm here
I′ve been through Gandhi, Windsor and Wally's affair, and I′m here
Amos 'n' Andy, Mah-jongg and platinum hair, and I′m here
I got through Abie′s, Irish Rose, Five Dionne babies, Major Bowes
Had heebie-jeebies for Beebe's, Bathysphere
I got through Brenda Frazier, and I′m here
I've gotten through Herbert and J. Edgar Hoover
Gee, that was fun and a half
When you′ve been through Herbert and J. Edgar Hoover
Anything else is a laugh
I've been through Reno, I′ve been through Beverly Hills, and I'm here.
Reefers and vino, rest cures, religion and pills, and I'm here
Been called a ′Pinko′, commie tool, got through it stinko by my pool
I should've gone to an acting school, that seems clear
Still someone said, "She′s sincere", so I'm here
Black sable one day, next day it goes into hock, but I′m here
Top billing Monday, Tuesday, you're touring in stock, but I′m here
First you're another sloe-eyed vamp
Then someone's mother, then you′re camp
Then you career from career to career
I′m almost through my memoirs, and I'm here
I′ve gotten through, "Hey, lady, aren't you whoozis?
Wow, what a looker you were"
Or better yet, "Sorry, I thought you were whoozis
Whatever happened to her?"
Good times and bum times, I′ve seen 'em all
And, my dear, I′m still here
Plush velvet sometimes
Sometimes just pretzels and beer, but I'm here
I've run the gamut, A to Z
Three cheers and dammit, C′est la vie
I got through all of last year, and I′m here
Lord knows, at least I was there, and I'm here
Look who′s here, I'm still here
