Making Cinderella a gown She’ll be the prettiest girl in the whole of the town! Off to the party she’ll go Wearing the loveliest dress that we know how to sew! Red and blue, that should do, A little lace before we’re through. Green and red, like I said, A little lace around her head. ---

Mama washed and combed and curled my hair And she painted my eyes and lips then I stepped into a satin Dancin’ dress that had a split on the side clean up to my hip It was red velvet trim and it fit me good Standin’ back from the lookin’ glass There stood a woman where a half gown kid had stood She said here’s your one chance Fancy don’t let me down Here’s your one chance Fancy don’t let me down ---

I bought these new heels, did my nails, had my hair done just right. I thought this new dress was a sure bet for romance tonight. Well it’s perfectly clear, between the TV and beer, I won’t get so much as a kiss. As I head for the door, I turn around to be sure, did I shave my legs for this? Darling, did I shave my legs for this? ---

Hey, I put some new shoes on, And suddenly everything is right, I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody’s smiling, It’s so inviting, Oh, short on money, But long on time, Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine, And I’m running late, And I don’t need an excuse, 'cause I’m wearing my brand new shoes. ---
