Pretty Dress - Rosie Thomas

Put your pretty dress on
It's time for you to go to the dance
Tie your hair in ribbons and lace
And wear pearls 'round your neck

And all the pretty princes will see you
All the pretty princes will see you
Some day, some day

Put your red boots on
It's time for you to walk home from school
Everyone will laugh, they'll point fingers at you
They'll be cruel

But cover up your ears and don't listen
Because you'll know much better than them
Some day, some day

And they'll wave to you
And they'll wave to you

Put your red coat on
And walk with a light in the woods
If it gets dark don't get scared
There's so much waiting for you

Cover up your tears and don't show them
'Cause you'll know much better than them
Some day, some day

And they'll wave to you
And they'll wave to you
And they'll wave to you
And they'll wave to you

'Cause they don't see you like I see you
If they did, they'd see
The nice little girl whose grown up
To become homecoming queen

Put your pretty dress on
Put your red boots on

And they'll wave to you
And they'll wave to you
And we'll wave to you
And we'll wave to you

Put your pretty dress on
Put your red boots on
Put your red coat on
Put your pretty dress on

Put your pretty dress on
Put your red coat on
Put your red boots on
Put you pretty dress on
