Modest and sweet
Gingham and ribbon
Tied up so neat
They weren't made of satin
Or silk from Paris
But everyone knows they were
Robes of the Queen
Kitty Well's dresses
Every girl's dream
From five-and-dime fabric
Robes of the Queen
Oh, Martha Carson
And Mother Maybelle
June and Anita
And Helen as well
Strode into the spotlight
An song on their lips
Those petticoats swaying
All around their hips
They left the crowd standing
Oh, they did it with ease
In their Kitty Well's dresses
Robes of the Queen
Kitty Well's dresses
Robes of the Queen
From Mobile to Memphis
Every girl's dream
Out in East Nashville
Little sewing room
The Featherweight humming
From morning 'til noon
Radio on the counter
Playing 'Making Believe'
Making Kitty Well's dresses
Robes of the Queen
Kitty Well's dresses
Robes of the Queen
Our modern day woman
No fashion dream
I've seen the photos
In Black Aberdeen
High heels and a handbag
Robes of the Queen
Kitty Well's dresses Modest and sweet Gingham and ribbon Tied up so neat They weren't made of satin Or silk from Paris But everyone knows they were Robes of the Queen Kitty Well's dresses Every girl's dream From five-and-dime fabric Robes of the Queen Oh, Martha Carson And Mother Maybelle June and Anita And Helen as well Strode into the spotlight An song on their lips Those petticoats swaying All around their hips They left the crowd standing Oh, they did it with ease In their Kitty Well's dresses Robes of the Queen Kitty Well's dresses Robes of the Queen From Mobile to Memphis Every girl's dream Out in East Nashville Little sewing room The Featherweight humming From morning 'til noon Radio on the counter Playing 'Making Believe' Making Kitty Well's dresses Robes of the Queen Kitty Well's dresses Robes of the Queen Our modern day woman No fashion dream I've seen the photos In Black Aberdeen High heels and a handbag Robes of the Queen Explain Request ×
