The Prettiest Dress
Well hun
We both knew this time just had to come
But the thing we didn't know was
Which of us would be the first to go
Ahh they just brought you home sweetheart
And I've asked the kids and the grandchildren too
Wait outside a minute or two
'cause I wanted some time by myself
To share some old memories with you

Why, I remember the first time I saw you
And the way you stole this old heart of mine
And the first present I ever gave you
Was the prettiest dress that I could find

Ah we courted awhile
And I just nearly drove you wild
'Til you finally said you'd be mine
And I gave you that ring and one other thing..
The prettiest dress that I could find
Ahh we shared joyed and tears for
The next fifty six or seven years
But honey, All I can recall are the good times
And the way that I would prove how much I loved you
Was with the prettiest dress that I could find

Now, I thought my love was strong, a-a-a-and It was
But, when the kids came along
I was just as helpless as I could be
But you'd just lay there and grin
When I came strutting in
With the prettiest dress I could find

But darling, Its so different this time
Why, There just wasn't a thing I could do
And you know how I always go to pieces
When something happens to you
Well, I'd just like to say I love you
And, Sweetheart, You look just fine
But before I go, I want you to know
That you're waring the prettiest dress
That I could find.. Yes you are
