Hard Hearted Hannah
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 likes to see men suffer

Tease 'em, thrill 'em, torture and kill 'em
Is her delight, they say
Well 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

In old Savannah, I said Savannah
The weather there is nice and warm
The climates of a Southern brand
But here's what I don't understand
They got a gal there, a pretty gal there
Who's colder than an Arctic storm
Got a heart just like a stone
Well, even ice men leave her alone

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 likes to see men suffer
Tease 'em, thrill 'em, torture, kill 'em
Is her delight, they say
Well, an evening spent with Hannah sittin' on your knees
Is being in Alaska in your BVDs
Hard Hearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah, GA, they say
They call her Hard Hearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah, GA
