Refrain:
In my sweet little Alice blue gown,
When I first wandered down in - to 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 a - dore it,
My sweet little A - lice blue gown!
I once had a gown, it was al - most 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
Till it went and it wasn't no more.
