Red Dress (Parshall) It doesn't happen like you see it on TV Our lives are nothing but a jumble, shamble Baby rattle duty, and dirty dungarees I can't belive that you still love me But when you take down the red dress baby Take down the red dress please Take down the red dress honey And shake me to my knees I've seen it happen all too frequently A couple fighting, snippin', slighting all the little tenderness that made them want to be I hope we never hit that freeze But when you put on the red dress, baby You know you're always pleasing me We'll put the kids to bed Turn the lights down the low Where's their teddy bear? Christ, I don't know... Oh, baby; go, baby Oh baby, Oh yeah Eleven years now and it's tough to find a muse A scribbled writing, scratching, scribing A thousand little reveries and disconnected views I can't find the words I want to tell you But when you put on the red dress, baby Put on the red dress, please Put on the red dress, baby And shake me to my knees
