See little Alyce blue gown
She's gone to a palace to play now
Yet I've known your secret
For a real, real long time

Recall what I told you
When you were by my side
Then don't let no melody caller
Take you for a ride

I just can't go on this way
I'm beggin' to tell you the reasons
For runnin' away
If you're runnin' need's real

'Cause you are the prettiest thing
That ever wore blue
In blue, ever wore

Sweet little toes she's blown away
You're lost in a grown up ballet
And I hear you whispering
For bed and poetry

You stand on one side
And I hang on the other
Don't do it for your Daddy baby
Don't do it for your Mother

I just can't go on this way
Well, all of that sand runs quicksilver
'Til it covers the children
Who refuse to be free

And you are the prettiest thing
That ever wore blue
Wore blue, ever wore

Pray for Alyce
Down to the devil

And stand on a grey light
It trembles unseen
At the edge of your eyesight
Yet you tango on this way
I'm beggin' to tell you the reasons
For runnin' away if you're runnin' these days

'Cause you are the prettiest thing
That ever wore blue
Wore blue, and you wore

Pray for Alyce
I bet you didn't think
She bet you didn't think
She could rock and roll
Yeah, yeah yeah

I bet you din't think
She bet you didn't think
She could rock and roll
I bet you didn't think
She bet you didn't think
She could rock and roll
Yeah, yeah, yeah
