"Tramp" is a song included as a track on the Stranglers' sixth studio album, La Folie. [1] "Tramp" was originally thought to be the ideal follow-up to their Top Ten hit single, " Golden Brown". However, Jean-Jacques Burnel convinced fellow band members that the album title track, " La Folie" was a much better choice. [2] This backfired when "La Folie" only peaked at No. 47 on the UK Singles Chart. [3]
