He bought me
The fur coat five
Winters ago
And the gown
The following Fall
Then the necklace
The bag the hat
And the shoes
That was late '48
I recall
Then last night
In his apartment
He tried to
Remove them all
And I said as
I ran down
The hall
Take back your mink
Take back
Your pearls
What made you
Think that I was
One of those girls
Take back the gown
The shoes
And the hat
I may be down
But I'm not
Flat as all that
I thought that
Each expensive
Gift you'd arrange
Was a token of
Your esteem
Now when I think
Of what you
Want in exchange
It all seems
A horrible dream
So take back
Your mink to
From whence
It came
And tell them to
Hollanderize it
For some
Other dame
Take back your mink
Take back your
Pearls
What made you
Think that I was
One of those girls
I'm screaming
Take back the gown
Take
Back the hat
I may be down
But I'm not flat
As all that
I thought that
Each expensive
Gift you'd arrange
Was a token
Of your esteem
But when I think
Of what you want
In exchange
It all seems
A horrible dream
Ow
Take back your mink
Those old
Worn-out pelts
And go shorten
The sleeves
For somebody else
