Lyrics
I remember it all very well looking back - was the summer I turned eighteen
We lived in a one room, worn-out shack on the outskirts of New Orleans
We didn’t have money for food or rent, to say the least we was hard-pressed
And mama spent every last penny we had to buy me a dancin’ dress
Mama washed and combed and curled my hair and she painted my eyes and lips
Stepped into a satin dancin’ dress that had a slit in the side clean up to my hips
It was red velvet trimming and it fit me good
Staring back from the looking glass, there stood a woman where a half-grown boy had stood
Here’s your one chance, Fancy, don’t let me down
Here’s your one chance, Fancy, don’t let me down
Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my neck and she kissed my cheek
I could see the tears welling up in her troubled eyes as she started to speak
She looked at our pitiful shack, and then she looked at me and took a ragged breath
She said your pa’s run off and I’m real sick and the baby’s gonna starve to death
She handed me a heart-shaped locket that said "to thine own self be true"
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across the toe of my high-heeled shoe
It sounded like somebody else that was talking, asking, “Mama what do I do?”
She said, “Just be nice to the gentleman, fancy - they’ll be nice to you”
Here’s your one chance, Fancy, don’t let me down
Here’s your one chance, Fancy, don’t let me down
Lord, forgive me for what I do - but if you want out, well it’s up to you
Don’t let me down now - your mama’s gonna move you uptown
That was the last time I saw my ma - the night I left that rickety shack
The welfare people came and took the baby, mama died and I ain’t been back
But the wheels of fate had started to turn and for me there was no way out
It wasn’t very long til I knew exactly what my mama’d been talking about
I knew what I had to do but I made myself this solemn vow
Said I was gonna be a lady someday, though it didn’t matter when or how
I couldn’t see spending the rest of my life with my head held down in shame
You know, I might’ve been born just plain white trash but Fancy was my name
Here’s your one chance, Fancy, don’t let me down
Here’s your one chance, Fancy, don’t let me down
It wasn’t long after a benevolent man took me in off the street
One week later I was pouring his tea in a five-room hotel suite
I charmed a king, a congressman, and the occasional aristocrat
I got me a Georgia mansion and an elegant New York townhouse flat and I ain’t done bad
Now in this life there’s a lot of self-righteous hypocrites that call me bad
And criticize mama for turning me out, no matter how little we had
And though I ain’t had to worry ’bout nothin’ for now on fifteen years
I can still hear the desperation in my poor mama’s voice ringing in my ears
Here’s your one chance, Fancy, don’t let me down
Here’s your one chance, Fancy, don’t let me down
Lord, forgive me for what I do - but if you want out, well it’s up to you
Don’t let me down now, your mama’s gonna move you uptown

To thine own self be true ❤️ ‘Show Pony’ will finally be available in stores Nov. 27th x
yee-haw!
Let’s gooooo
One of the greatest things I have ever heard in my entire life
Yay that’s my birthday!
I consider this video a birthday gift:D Thank you, mister Orville Peck. You are pure music.
There's such a tension in this song and it never seems to resolve.
Another song with those vibes is Staring at the Sun by TV on the Radio. It's really a brilliant way to structure a song, all build, no release.
This town might be big enough for the both of us
Change ONE word, and its a song about a trans woman. Absolutely fucking fantastic. "To thine ownself be true."
I adore the minimalist arrangement of this version. It's completely driven by his voice and emotions. The music just creates textures to accent his voice.
What sticks out the most is the pure emotion and raw energy. Orville isn’t giving us a song. He’s giving us a whole damn experience. This isn’t just music. This is art.
I keep coming back to this video for the full-body shivers. Every time.
Yeah, that was an incredible performance.
That's why I love the minimal music, he does that to really emphasize the lyrics, to tell us that that's what the song is about.
Agreed! A true legend of our time!
its great on shooms! peace!
I normally don’t like this song, but this is a really good version of it
This performance is nothing less than transcendent.
I love that you took such an amazing song and made it trans at its core. Sure, I tear up when I listen to the originals but being trans myself this version just hits different.
im so happy to see another trans orville fan that loves his version as much as i do! it really feels like with the messages of authenticity, conflicting themes of masculinity and femininity and slow emotional pacing that this song was written for a wide variety of trans experience to connect to.
Yes! I’m cis but an ally and hearing how much it hits different when Orville changes the pronouns is powerful
Same here. I can't keep a dry eye. Tells the true story.
This song is not trans any more than the original is cis. It is about the trafficking of a minor.
Okay this is a head cannon now.
Kudos for taking on a song that artists shy away from because of the shear amount of words. Then the trans spin. Then the notes you choose to hold that even Reba didn't.. Then the slight Jack White vibe at the end. I mean, I can hardly contain myself. So, so good.
*bobbie gentry, the og woke country queen
Reba is a special person. She released a compilation album of remixes for Pride Month with a rainbow on the cover.
I"m proud to be from Oklahoma and to have went to the same college as that lady with teh beautiful heart.
Orville peck is johnny bravo after he came out. And there is no changing my mind
Well now I can’t unhear that, so thanks? 😂
Johnny Bravo meets Elvis 😆
Why would you do this to us? 🥲
My god what a simmering and wicked sounding interpretation of this song. The slowed down pace really lets the lyrics stick to you; I’m in love with this version thank you Mr. Peck for thinking to cover it and for recontextualizing the original by giving it a trans twist just with one word in one lyric……. “to thine ownself be true” will never sound the same now
as a trans man who loves the song fancy this feels so life changing ❤
Oh man. Reba is one of my favorite country singers and Fancy (I know Reba covered it but her version) is one of my favorite songs of all time. This version hit my heart HARD. I’m a trans man and though this may be more geared towards describing a trans woman I identify with this just the same. Dude I haven’t legit cried in years but this had me sobbing. This is an amazing version of the song and now a favorite! Thank you so much!
Harrowing. Like the original it scares the hell out of me, but is still a work of true musical beauty. How can such a dark, disturbing song be so mesmerising?
I actually can't listen to this song without crying...
Found my way here via Trixie , bought the album , bought the Ep and fell in love with this, been on repeat since. Wow just wow
Not being a country music fan, except for Orville, lol, I had no idea this was a cover. So I went and watched that video. It’s amazing that he only changed one word, yet it fit perfectly. This version is definitely darker and I love it.
Its so powerful to hear a man sing these lyrics....WOW!
This song is the perfect gilded frame for one of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard.
Truly! He can do no wrong, as far as I am concerned. Perfection.
When's the cover of Jolene... Dolly covers by OP... a dream I would live for. Love his work reminds me of when I was younger and my mama would put on country music from the 60s and 70s I didn't think anybody made this type of music or did this singing style anymore
Some of us are country, rockabilly or bluegrass LONG before we identify as LGBTQ and Orville *gets* that because he is too.
This might be my favorite cover of any song ever
finally, a country song
this version just gives me chills, dude blew it out of the water. currently obsessed with your music orville, never stop
I'm late to finding out you did this cover somehow- this was one of my favorite songs growing up, and this cover is so amazing. I've been listening to it on loop for over an hour.
I sort of left country behind and gave up on it in the mid nineties, and these days I'm still more of a rock & roll girl, but you are bringing back everything I loved about country in the 80's as a kid and are then building beautiful things on top of it. Thank you.
so i absolutely love the original song and its so dark and haunting to me but man this version put it in a new lens and its quite amazing. this is art dude

Oh man, I can't help how much I love this guy!
No kidding
This fascinating, fringe-faced, cowboy has got me hooked! That voice is mad; I love it ❤️
I've just discovered this amazing artist. Orville your voice is pure emotion. I hear a tinge of that rock- n roll legend Elvis. Your duet with Shania is off the scales. Long live the new king.❤️💙💜🙏👍🏴🇬🇧
This version of the song is just captivating. It feels like you've summoned the very spirit of Fancy, and she's possessed you to tell her story.
Also it baffles me when people say that making Fancy trans "makes" the song political, when its a song about how abject poverty can force women into survival sex work, and how they're still _people_ who deserve dignity and respect. What about that _isn't_ political?
Anyway this is one of my absolute favorite songs, and has been since i was a little kid in the back of my own Mama's car, and Orville has brought it an incredible amount of fraught emotion _and_ transfemininity, which, as a trans guy, i deeply love.
You either love Orville Peck or youre wrong.
Haunting
It’s so reliant on his tone and voice. And it just creates this sound and energy that can’t be explained with words
4:23 it's pure chills ❤️
Wtf is this? I stan Reba and her version is butter but holy 💩this man just made my elbows buckle with this song. So haunting and smooth. ORVILLE you better do get on my play list.
This is the best cover of Fancy I have heard anyone done ever! Orville's voice is just the absolute best!
Will never beat Reba
@@kalebhyatt8249 yet
This version brought tears to my eyes and goosebumps. Amazing. Such raw emotion. Wow!
Holy f**k! Mind blown! What an incredible version. Pure class.

The fact that you made it trans makes me fucking cry. I'll see you play one day, it's both a promise and a threat
Love the melodic spoken word delivery that accentuates the dark desperation of the subject matter in the song.
Hello Debby, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
This gives me the frickin chills every damn time. ❤
Trixie introduced me but this song just took me to the church of Orville Peck!
I was searching "Gay country" uselessly on Spotify and clicked his Born This Way cover and down the rabbit hole I went.
i get chills every time, this truly is my highlight from Show Pony
gods this cover is amazing it holds the tension so high through the whole song
Bobby Gentry will always live on in my heart. 🖤
country boy i love you
omg why doesnt this have more likes, do people ignore this classic
I've been making music for 20 years. Orville Peck, You are my new Hero.
I like the idea of playing around with gender stereotypes in country music. It certainly is exciting when it gets a taste of diversity.
Oh yes
Holy shit orville you've outdone yourself. This is amazing.
This cover is PERFECTION
Gawd DAMN, Orville.
You have to do " In Dreams " by Roy Orbison... yes, with the droplight ala Blue Velvet. You got to.
Thank you! Glad I'm not the only one. David Lynch and Orville must get together before David's work is done. Lynch will love Orville.
Yah I definitely hear a big Roy influence and Elvis too
I'm not sure I could handle listening to him sing that song. But yes.
My life would feel completed
I wish i could like this 100 times, long live orville peck
o.k. WOW, it took this long but we now have the definitive FANCY.
Congrats to all.

Gives me shivers every time i hear this
If Johnny Cash performed this, they would call him a God. I think Orville is the exception.
My sweet Orville, I had money saved to purchase concert tickets/transportation/lodging cause you're not coming here. But I bought a puppy instead and I believe you would understand. No his name isn't Fancy. It's Fantastic. With love, Jamie
I adore this version
Duncan grew himself a mustache in the pandemic. Good for him! Oh and the song is incredible, obvs
Oh Orville, you rule! Keep singing loud enough for everybody to hear.
Holy f*ck. Amazing.
simply amazing. i was transfixed from the moment i started watching
I'm from Mexico and I'm dying to hear Orville's powerfull voice live!!! Don't let me down!!!!
Just one word for this: brilliant
I cannot express how much i am in love with your sound
wow wow wow! Incredible voice and raw talent
Hello Amanda, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Who is this man?! I am absolutely fascinated! Someone fill me in..!
This video is perfect in every single way
Ive had a glitch on my phone for a while that when I go to message people the word “fancy” already is in the text message without me even typing it. I saw this song and it felt weirdly like a sign. I’m glad I watched it, love the video ✨🙌
Amazing as ever damn your just amazing. Plus your vocals just keep getting stronger and stronger. Keep it up sexy man and your amazing band as well. They compliment you so much tell them there amazing as well.
Orville Peck should really stick with these more dark and melancholic tunes rather than songs like Legends Never Die. His voice fucking rocks
Orville your voice has such range and beauty!
I’m so glad I found you earlier this year. You are an amazing singer! Love the info you share in interviews yet still keep yer persona
What a voice😍😍 great song!!🇧🇷🇧🇷

OMG I am finding you for the first time. I'm old and living under a rock apparently. lol I LOVE this arrangement. Feel it to my core. And OMG...was that a nod to Vanjie?!?! YES
I don’t think it’s an explicit nod to Vanjie, but actually to Reba’s music video of Fancy where the ghost/memory of her mom calls out to her the exact same way Peck sings it here. But it’d be fun it if there was a Vanjie nod lol
Absolutely in awe! Completely turning my expectations upside down!
Next stop is a duet with Nick Cave?? 😍
Fuck yes
He is damn impressive
Wow his voice! Sounds so good!
