Shoes And Dress That Alice Wore Lyrics

by Tom T. Hall

Mhm I'm humming as I walk this house and do my daily chores

When I put the broom away I see the dress that Alice wore

It's hanging in the closet sadly sagging without form

Empty dress there in the closet held a body soft and warm

Shoes and dress that Alice wore



It's the dress she wore the night she caught me lying there beside

Some strange woman meaning nothing just some bones and hair and hide

I could npot explain it to her and I cannot to this day

Now I stand here staring at the dress she wore to go away

Shoes and dress that Alice wore



And the shoes are red and shiny and they're modest in the heel

And the dress a bad investment and the color could be teal

She went screaming from the room where I lay blinking in the nude

With the woman there beside me saying ain't this woman rude

Shoes and dress that Alice wore



So I asked the undertaker in a private kind of way

Before you close the casket when our friends have gone away

If it's not too strange to reason I would make one last request

Since it all goes in the ground I'd like to have the shoes and dress

Shoes and dress that Alice wore



So I'm humming as I walk this house...

Mhmm mhm
