Take Back Your Mink

Take back your mink

Take back your pearls

What made you think

That I was one of those girls ?

Take back the gown

The gloves and the hat

I may be down

But I'm not flat as all that.

I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged

Was a token of your esteem

Now when I think of what you want in exchange

It all seems a horrible dream.

Take back your mink

Those old worn out pelts

And go shorten the sleaves

For somebody else.

I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged

Was a token of your esteem

Now when I think of what you want in exchange

It all seems a horrible dream.

So take back your mink.

To from whence it came

And tell them to alter and rise it

For some other dame.
