Buttons and Bows |
| BUTTONS AND BOWS |
| Dinah Shore |
| — from «The Paleface» |
| — words and music by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans |
| (Spoken:) A western ranch is just a branch of Nowhere Junction to me. |
| Give me the city where living’s pretty and the gals wear finery. |
| East is east and west is west |
| And the wrong one I have chose |
| Let’s go where I’ll keep on wearin' |
| Those frills and flowers and buttons and bows |
| Rings and things and buttons and bows |
| Don’t bury me in this prairie |
| Take me where the cement grows |
| Let’s move down to some big town |
| Where they love a gal by the cut o' her clothes |
| And I’ll stand out |
| In buttons and bows |
| I’ll love you in buckskin |
| Or skirts that I’ve homespun |
| But I’ll love ya' longer, stronger where |
| Yer friends don’t tote a gun |
| My bones denounce the buckboard bounce |
| And the cactus hurts my toes |
| Let’s vamoose where gals keep usin' |
| Those silks and satins and linen that shows |
| And I’m all yours in buttons and bows |
| Gimme eastern trimmin' where women are women |
| In high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes |
| And French perfume that rocks the room |
| And I’m all yours in buttons and bows |
