[Verse 1]
Out in Savannah, I said Savannah
The weather there was nice and warm (sunny!)
The Southern air was something grand (baby!)
But here's what I don't understand (well, let me explain)
They got a girl there (wow!), a pretty girl there (and how)
Who's colder than an Arctic storm (brrr!)
Got a heart just like a stone
Even ice men leave her alone
[Chorus]
They call her Hard Hearted Hannah
The vamp of Savannah
The meanest girl in town
Well, leather is tough, but Hannah's heart is tougher
She's a girl who loves to see men suffer
To tease 'em, and thrill 'em, to torture them, and kill 'em
Is her delight, they say
I saw her at the seashore with a great big pan
There was Hannah pouring water on a drowning man
She's Hard Hearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah, GA
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Well, you can talk to me about your refrigeration, mama
Hannah, Hannah, is the polar bear's pajamas
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Being talked to Hannah in an easy chair
Is like strollin' through Alaska in your underwear
She's Hard Hearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah, GA!
