Rhyme Scheme: AAAA BBCC DDEE FFFF GHAA| Oh silken gown all pink and pretty | A |
| Bought quite a bargain in the City | A |
| Your ill trained soul full false has played me | A |
| No Paris gown would have betrayed me | A |

| You knew my pretty silken treasure | B |
| I must not wed for love or pleasure | B |
| But for a settlement and title | C |
| Yet you encouraged his recital | C |

| He said oh faithless gown you listened | D |
| While on your sheen two tear drops glistened | D |
| He said let love to music set it | E |
| I'll never speak it nor forget it | E |
| - | |
| No no I cried I tried to save you | F |
| False gown you showed the tears I gave you | F |
| You looked discreet when first I found you | F |
| How could you let his arm go round you | F |
| - | |
| You darling dress I'll smooth your creases | G |
| I'll wear you till you drop to pieces | H |
| But poor men's wives wear cotton only | A |
| Dear gown I hope you won't feel lonely | A |
