Red Chiffon Lyrics

My, she's turned out, even on this rainy day

Since the evening of her wedding, it's always been this way

But who would've guessed

When they laid her old husband to rest

She'd dress her best in many years

Everybody saw her smile through her tears

And now everybody, everybody's talking

Out by the limo, holy water's falling

Pass that flask, let me sneak a peek

It's tragic, I know, but there's an image to keep

While we watch her drive by, in the driver's seat

Sometimes red chiffon is just what you want

Sometimes blue will do

Unless you wear it well, it's less than you've got

And that won't look good on you

No, it won't look good on you

It always looked good on you

I swear, she sat down in church

Seemed like she was still on her strut

And when she stood up to say a few words

Couldn't keep the mouths shut

Couldn't keep the doors shut

Say what

And now everybody, everybody's talking

Out by the limo, holy water's falling

Pass that flask, help me feed the need

It's tragic, I know, but there's an image to keep

While we watch her drive by, in the driver's seat

My, she's turned out, even on this rainy day

Since the morning of the funeral, it's always been this way
