A white sport coat and a pink carnation (doo-wa)
I'm all dressed up for the dance (bum-bum, bum-bum, bum, bum)
A white sport coat and a pink carnation (doo-wa)
I'm all alone in romance (bum-bum, bum-bum, bum, bum)
(Doo-doo)
Once you told me long ago (doo-doo)
To the prom with me you'd go (doo-doo)
Now you've changed your mind it seems (doo-wa)
Someone else will hold my dreams
A white (a white) sport coat (sport coat) and a pink carnation (doo-wa)
And in a blue, blue mood (bum-bum, bum-bum, bum, bum)
(A white sport coat and a pink carnation) (doo-wa)
I'm all dressed up for the dance (bum-bum, bum-bum, bum, bum)
(A white sport coat and a pink carnation) (doo-wa)
I'm all alone in romance (bum-bum, bum-bum, bum, bum)
(Doo-doo)
Once you told me long ago (doo-doo)
To the prom with me you'd go (doo-doo)
Now you've changed your mind it seems (doo-wa)
Someone else will hold my dreams
A white (a white) sport coat (sport coat) and a pink carnation (doo-wa)
I'm in a blue, blue mood
(Ah-ah)
