Treat Me Rough Lyrics


When I was born, they found a silver spoon in my mouth
And so I always had the best of care
When winter came up north, of course they motored me south
Where I was princess in our villa thereTutors and headwaiters fawned on me
Life was just a bore till it dawned on me
The cushy sheltered way of life was really no fun
From now on, some manhandling must be doneSo treat me rough
Muss my hair
Don't you dare to handle me with care
I'm no innocent child, baby
Keep on treating me wildTreat me rough
Pinch my cheek
Kiss and hug and squeeze me
'till I'm weakI've been pampered enough, baby
Keep on treatin' me roughTreat me rough
Pinch my cheek
Kiss and hug and squeeze me
'till I'm weakI've been pampered enough, baby

Keep on treatin' me rough
Keep on beatin' me
Keep on treatin' me rough

Ella Jane Fitzgerald (April 25, 1917 in Newport News, VA – June 15, 1996), also known as Lady Ella (the First Lady of Song), was one of the most influential jazz singers of the 20th Century, the winner of thirteen Grammy Awards, the National Medal of Art presented by President Ronald Reagan and the Presidential Medal of Freedom presented by President George H. W. Bush. Gifted with a three-octave vocal range, she was noted for her purity of tone, near faultless phrasing and intonation, and a "horn-like" improvisational ability, particularly in her scat singing.
