Refrain In my sweet little Alice blue gown When I first wandered down into town I was both proud and shy, as I felt e'ry eye, And in every shop window I primped passing by Then in manner of fashion, I'd frown 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 Bridge - Verse I once had a gown, it was almost new Oh, the daintiest thing, it was sweet Alice Blue With little forget-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, and it wore Til it went and it wasn't no more Then in manner of fashion, I'd frown 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
