Little Red Dress Songtext
von Hal Ketchum

Intro
Blue is a tear at night
Purity′s snowy white
Green is a jealous shade
Gold is a promise made

But (First time only)
Temptation comes in a little red dress
Sky-high heels and pearl necklace

All my better angels
Are in serious danger
Of becomin' strangers

Spotlight follows you across the room
And my heart starts goin′ boom boom-a boom boom
Out of my chest
Can't take a breath
Scares me to death
Little red dress


Try to be a good boy
Try to walk a straight line
Try to keep a pure thought
Runnin' through my mind

All I should be wantin′
Is a movie and a dinner
Try to be a saint
But I′m nothin' but a sinner

Instrumental

Yeah, I try to be stronger
Than the weakest now
Got′ta find some way some some'a how
In between the flirts, the skirts, and the virtue
The virtue

Repeat Chorus (soft first; louder second time)

(On second time through, the chorus′ end changes)
... Can't take a breath
Scares me to death
Cardiac arrest
Can′t take a breath
Scares me to death
Every time you wear that
Little red dress


Little red, little red dress (repeat to fade)
