Merle Haggard - Shopping for Dresses Lyrics

Down through the ages men have died for their women
And they've done so, so many times
Each time I love one, I always lost one
Seems like the right one is so hard to find

And I'm shopping for dresses with no one to wear them
One in each color and one in each style
Maybe someday if I'm lucky I'll find someone to wear them
And my shopping will be done for awhile

Somewhere a lady is shopping for britches
Comparing the values and appraising each pair
Maybe someday the good Lord will put us together
And we'll both have new wardrobes to wear

But I'm shopping for dresses with no one to wear them
One in each color and one in each style
Maybe someday if I'm lucky I'll find someone to wear them
And my shopping will be done for awhile
Maybe someday the good Lord will put us together
And my shopping will be done for awhile
