Discover the story of the song > “Fancy” – Reba McEntire

The song tells the story of a young woman, Fancy, who grew up poor in New Orleans. Her mother sacrifices everything to buy her a dress for a dance, but later tells her to be nice to men to get by in life. Fancy leaves home and becomes a successful high-class escort to support herself and her family, but still remembers her humble beginnings and the words of her mother. In the end, she is proud of what she has accomplished but still carries the weight of her past with her.
