Red Silken Stockings - Alma Cogan

Put on your red silk stockings, pretty babe

Put on your red silk stockings, pretty babe

Just wear a red silken stocking

And you’ll get the fellas flocking

Never fear, never fear, pretty babe

Put on your plumes and gaters, pretty babe

Put on your plumes and gaters, pretty babe

For if you wear plumes and gaters

There’ll be no more peelin' taters

Learn to smile, live in style, pretty babe

And if you’re itchin' to leave the kitchen

To the city far away you yearn to go

Just leave your home in dear ol' Wyoming

Loose your little local laddie

Find a daddy with some dough

Put on your red silk stockings, pretty babe

Put on your red silk stockings, pretty babe

And put some paint where your face is

nd you’ll go a lot of places

Never fear, never fear, pretty babe

(Put on your red silk stockings, pretty babe)

(Put on your red silk stockings, pretty babe)

Just wear a red silken stocking

And you’ll get the fellas flocking

Never fear, never fear, pretty babe

And if you’re longin' to do some wrongin'

To a life that’s been so very, very slow

Just dress up brightly and stay out nightly

And forget what mama told ya

That is all you gotta know

Put on your red silk stockings, pretty babe

Put on your red silk stockings, pretty babe

And put some paint where your face is

And you’ll go a lot of places

Never fear, never fear, pretty babe

Yes, she did as she was told

Now she’s worth her weight in gold

Red stockings and all, pretty babe
