My Best Dress |
| When your life is over I won’t be sad or bluer |
| I’ll put on my fancy hat, lie down next to you |
| I’ll kiss you once for life; |
| I’ll kiss you twice for death |
| Hold you close for comfort, wearing my best dress |
| You look so angry when you sleep, your face a troubled frown |
| So I will smooth your furrowed brow as I lay in the ground |
| I’ll kiss you once for life; |
| I’ll kiss you twice for death |
| I’ll hold you close for comfort, wearing my best dress |
| And as the mourners pass me, I will smile and wave |
| Thank them for their sympathy and tell them I’ll be brave |
| But once the wake is over, and I’m drunk and feeling fine |
| I’ll go out there and find me another boy to pass the time |
| As we’re dancing cheek to cheek and the lights are laid low |
| I’ll request this song for you, laying in the ground below |
| Once the song is over, it’s time to go to bed |
| I’ll leave him on the dance floor and return to you instead |
| I’ll kiss you once for life; |
| I’ll kiss you twice for death |
| I’ll hold you close for comfort, wearing my best dress |
