Lyrics
Refrain
They call her Hard Hearted Hannah
The vamp of Savannah, the meanest gal in town
Leather is tough but Hannah’s heart is tougher
She’s a gal who loves to see men suffer
To tease ’em and thrill ’em, to torture 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, G.A.
Refrain
They call her Hard Hearted Hannah
The vamp of Savannah, the meanest gal in town
Talk of your cold, refrigerating Mammas
Brother, she’s the Polar bear’s pajamas
To tease ’em and thrill ’em, to torture and kill ’em
Is her delight, they say
An ev’ning spent with Hannah sitting on your knees
Is like trav’ling thru Alaska in your B.V.D’s
She’s Hard Hearted Hannah
The vamp of Savannah, G.A.
