Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
Dress of white, shoes of red
But you can’t lose the blues with colors
Purple hat on her head
But you can’t lose the blues with colors
Yellow bag trimmed with green
But she’s blue ‘neath the splash of colors
On the outside a rainbow
A smile a yard wide
An orchid corsage with a pink ribbon
But you can’t cover up
What you feel deep inside
No you can’t lose the blues with colors
