<<Well, that's because "tramp" meaning "slut" is very old-fashioned slang that hasn't been in common use in dacades, although most people would still know what you meant if you used it in context.>>

According to the Online Etymology Dictionary, the use of "tramp" to mean "promiscuous woman" dates from 1922. It was still commonly used in my youth (the '50s, '60s & '70s).

Vagabond and tramp don't necessary have the same meaning.
