"A Soulful Shade Of Blue" lyrics - BUFFY SAINTE-MARIE

Dressmaker, dressmaker
I'm singing at the hall next Saturday night and he'll be there
He's been gone for so long, I want him back again
Make me the sweetest dress you can

Make it a soulful shade of blue with a ribbon at the hem
A ribbon white for loyalty to show that I remember when
A soulful shade of blue, looked into my eyes
And tell him, I want him back again

Dressmaker, dressmaker
Don't make it loud or bright, just make it a sweet and gentle style
Then maybe he'll remember me it was not so long ago
I'll miss his sweet and gentle smile

Make it a soulful shade of blue with a ribbon at the hem
A ribbon white for loyalty to show that I remember when
A soulful shade of blue, looked into my eyes
And tell him, I want him back again

Make it a soulful shade of blue
