Irene - A Musical Comedy: Alice Blue Gown

I once had a gown
It was almost new
Ah the dainties thing
It was sweet Alice Blue
With little forget me nots
Placed here and there
And when I had it on
I walked on in air
And it wore and it wore
And it wore, Till it wilt
And it wasn’t no more
In my sweet little
Alice Blue Gown
When I first wandered
Down into town
I was both proud and shy
As I felt every eye
And in every shop window
I print passing by
That in manner of fashion
I’ve frown can the world
Seemed to smile all around
Till it wilted I’ve wore it
I have always adored it
My sweet little
Alice Blue Gown
Till it wilted I’ve wore it
I will always adore it
My sweet little
Alice Blue Gown
