A white sport coat and a red carnation

I'm all dressed up for the dance

A white sport coat and a red carnation

I'm all alone in romance



Once you told me long ago

To the dance with me you'd go

Now you've changed your mind it seems

Someone else will hold my dreams



A white sport coat and a red carnation

I'm all alone in romance



A white sport coat and a red carnation

I'm all dressed up for the dance

A white sport coat and a red carnation

I'm all alone in romance



Once you told me long ago

To the dance with me you'd go

Now you've changed your mind it seems

Well someone else will hold my dreams



A white sport coat and a red carnation

I'm in a blue blue-ue mood...
