some lyrics that sounded like that...What song, and which artist? If you please, sir!

A WHITE SPORT COAT
Marty Robbins

A white sports coat and a pink carnation
I'm all dressed up for the dance
A white sports coat and a pink carnation
I'm all alone in romance

Once you told me long ago
To the prom with me you'd go
Now you've changed your mind it seems
Someone else will hold my dreams

A white sports coat and a pink carnation
I'm in a blue blue mood.

I'm all dressed up for the dance
I'm all alone in romance

Once you told me long ago
To the prom with me you'd go
Now you've changed your mind it seems
Someone else will hold my dreams

A white sports coat and a pink carnation
I'm in a blue blue mood.

8. Thanks! You are a dear...

What sad lyrics...full of teenaged angst...I'd NEVER go back to those times for anything...

9. The first Jimmy Buffet album I ever bought had

a picture of Buffet wearing a white coat and holding a lobster. I had to buy the album for the name: A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean.
