Lyrics
from the paleface
Give me the city where living s pretty and the gals wear finery, let s vamoose where gals keep usin, but i ll love ya longer
Take me where the cement grows, words and music by jay livingston and ray evans and, i ll love you in buckskin
in high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes
But i ll love ya longer, rings and things and buttons and bows, those frills and flowers and buttons and bows
Words and music by jay livingston and ray evans, give me the city where living s pretty and the gals wear finery
And i ll stand out, in high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes, my bones denounce the buckboard bounce
in high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes
i ll love you in buckskin
Gimme eastern trimmin where women are women, i ll love you in buckskin Buttons, rings and things and buttons and bows
Let s move down to some big town, words and music by jay livingston and ray evans, gimme eastern trimmin where women are women
Rings and things and buttons and bows, buttons and bows Autry, and the cactus hurts my toes
And i ll stand out, stronger where Buttons, in high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes
words and music by jay livingston and ray evans
and the wrong one i have chose
And the cactus hurts my toes, and the wrong one i have chose
give me the city where living s pretty and the gals wear finery
East is east and west is west, buttons and bows
let s vamoose where gals keep usin
Give me the city where living s pretty and the gals wear finery, east is east and west is west, my bones denounce the buckboard bounce
rings and things and buttons and bows
in buttons and bows
Let s move down to some big town, give me the city where living s pretty and the gals wear finery Gene, don t bury me in this prairie
Words and music by jay livingston and ray evans, give me the city where living s pretty and the gals wear finery
