Chorus
Put on you Sunday clothes
When you feel dawn and out
Strut down the street and have your picture took
Dressed like a dream your spirits seem to turn about
That Sunday shine is a certain sign
That you feel as fine as you look!
Take the someone whose arms you're in
Hold onto her tight and spin
And one two three, one two three, one two three
Look!
I held her
For an instant
But my arms felt sure and strong
It only takes a moment
To be loved a whole life long...
Yes, it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
Oh yes, It takes a woman
A fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things
In life! ·
Well, well, hello, Dolly!
Well, hello, Dolly!
It' so nice to have you back
Where you belong
You're looking swell, Dolly!
We can tell, Dolly!
You're still glowin
You're still crowin
You're still goin strong
You'll see the crowd swayin
For the band's playin
One of your old favorite songs
From way back when
Dolly
Wow, wow, wow, fellas
Look at the old girl now, fellas!
Chorus
Dolly, youll never go away
Dolly, youll never go away
Dolly, youll never go away
Again!
