Shoppin' For Dresses Lyrics - Merle Haggard

Down through the ages men have died for their women 

And they've done so so many times 

But each time I loved one I always lost one 

And I guess the right one is so hard to fine 

So I'm shopping for dresses with no one to wear them 

One in each color and one in each style 

Maybe some day I'll find me a lady to wear them 

And my shopping will be done for a while 

I'll bet somewhere's a lady a shopping for riches 

Comparing the valleys and praising each pair 

Maybe someday the good Lord will let us together 

And we'll both have a new wardrobe to wear 

But I'm shopping for dresses...
