- Dress Lyrics / with translationsput on that dress
i'm going out dancing
starting off red
glean and sparkling he'll see me
music playing make it dreamy for dancing
must be a way that i can dress to please him
it's hard to walk and the dress is not easy
i'm swinging over like a heavy loaded fruit tree
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
it's sad to see
lonely all this lonely
close up my eyes
dreamy dreamy music that make you feel alright
music playing make it good for romacing
must be a way i can dress to please him
swing and sway everything will be alright
but he's feeling so down tight tonight
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
you heard it
my man says
but i bought you beautiful dresses (i agonized over these lines)
you heard it
my man says
but i bought you beautiful dresses
filthy type your dress is filthy
i'm falling flat and my arms are empty
get away better get it out of this room
a fallen woman in dancing costume
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
i'm going out dancing
starting off red
glean and sparkling he'll see me
music playing make it dreamy for dancing
must be a way that i can dress to please him
it's hard to walk and the dress is not easy
i'm swinging over like a heavy loaded fruit tree
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
it's sad to see
lonely all this lonely
close up my eyes
dreamy dreamy music that make you feel alright
music playing make it good for romacing
must be a way i can dress to please him
swing and sway everything will be alright
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
you heard it
my man says
but i bought you beautiful dresses (i agonized over these lines)
you heard it
my man says
but i bought you beautiful dresses
filthy type your dress is filthy
i'm falling flat and my arms are empty
get away better get it out of this room
a fallen woman in dancing costume
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
if you put it on
