Alice blue gown Lyrics

I once had a gown it was al-most new, oh, the dain-ti-est
Thing, it was sweet a-lice blue; with lit-tle for-get-me-nots
Placed here and there, when I had it on, I walked on the air,
And it wore, and it wore, and it wore, till it went and it
Was-n't no more.

Chorus

In my sweet lit-tle a-lice blue gown,.......
When I first wan-dered down in to town,.........
I was both proud and shy, as I felt ev'-ry eye, but in ev'-ry shop
Win-dow
I'd primp, pass-ing by;
Then in man-ner of fash-ion I'd frown............
And the world seem'd to smile all a-round,.........
Till it wilt-ed I wore it, I'll al-ways a-dore it, my sweet lit-tle
A-lice blue gown
