Second Hand Rose Lyrics - Barbra Streisand

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 wearing 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'd been married before! 

Everyone knows that I'm just Second Hand Rose, 

From Second Avenue.

I'm wearing second-hand shoes, 

Second-hand hose, 

All the girls hand me their second-hand beaus! 

Even my pajamas, when I don them, 

Have somebody else's 'nitials on them. 

Second-hand rings, I'm sick of second-hand things, 

I never get what other girliess do. 

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!" 

Everyone knows that I'm just Second Hand Rose, 

From Second Avenue.
