must be referring to San Francisco...
She gets too hungry for dinner at eight
She likes the theater, and never comes late
She'd never bother with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp

Doesn't like crap games with barons or earls
Won't go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
Won't dish the dirt, with the rest of the girls
That's why the lady is a tramp

She likes the free, free fresh wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke, but it's o'k
She hates California, it's cold and it's damp
That's why the lady is a tramp
- From the Rodgers & Hart musical Pal Joey
I first saw a production of this at the Seattle Rep 79 or 80. I get the humor of the song much better than I did then ;)
