Alice Blue Gown
In my sweet little Alice blue gown
When I first wandered down into town
I was so proud inside
As I felt every eye
And in every shop window I primped, passing by
A new manner of fashion I'd found
And the world seemed to smile all around
'Til it wilted, I wore it
I'll always adore it
My sweet little Alice blue gown
The little silk worms that made silk for that gown
Just made that much silk and then crawled in the ground
'Cause there never was anything like it before
And I don't care to hope there will be any more
And it's gone, 'cause it just had to be
Still it wears in my memory
In my sweet little Alice blue gown
When I first wandered down into town
I was so proud inside
As I felt every eye
And in every shop window I primped, passing by
A new manner of fashion I'd found
And the world seemed to smile all around
So it wouldn't be proper
If made of silk were another
My sweet little Alice blue gown
When I first wandered down into town
I was so proud inside
As I felt every eye
And in every shop window I primped, passing by
A new manner of fashion I'd found
And the world seemed to smile all around
'Til it wilted, I wore it
I'll always adore it
My sweet little Alice blue gown
The little silk worms that made silk for that gown
Just made that much silk and then crawled in the ground
'Cause there never was anything like it before
And I don't care to hope there will be any more
And it's gone, 'cause it just had to be
Still it wears in my memory
In my sweet little Alice blue gown
When I first wandered down into town
I was so proud inside
As I felt every eye
And in every shop window I primped, passing by
A new manner of fashion I'd found
And the world seemed to smile all around
So it wouldn't be proper
If made of silk were another
My sweet little Alice blue gown
