Red Silk Stockings and Green Perfume
Don Cornell

Here's a story of a roaring mining town

And the gal who really knew her way around

There's still talk of that event 'cause the way she came and went

She took the town and turned it upside down


With her red silk stockings and her green perfume

She blew into this man's town with a silver boon

Never was any trouble but she started some soon

With her red silk stockings and her green perfume


Oh, the town was growing

And the money was flowing

And the boys were throwing it around

Oh, the red silk stockings and the green perfume


She was singing a love song in the gambling hall

When along came a stranger, he was handsome and tall

He won every last dollar that we had in the room

And the red silk stockings and the green perfume



Oh, the town was growing

And the money was flowing

And the boys were throwing it around

Oh, the red silk stockings and the green perfume


Oh, she promised to meet me by the silvery moon

She was meeting that stranger by the cactus dune

All she left was a memory of a honky tonk tune

And her red silk stockings and her green perfume


Oh, the town was growing

And the money was flowing

And the boys were throwing it around

Oh, the red silk stockings and the green perfume
