Alice in the Bluegrass Lyrics by Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway

City of Gold

2023

[Verse 1]
Come gather 'round folks and a story I'll tell
About a girl who tripped through the bottom of a well
Woke up in a dream with a curious habit
Chasing a little white rabbit
[Verse 2]
Well, she landed with a thump by the field mouse door
Said, "This don't look like Kentucky anymore"
Knocked three times and her mind swung open
Alice had awoken
[Chorus]
So she danced all night with a bottle in her hand
Lost in a backwoods Wonderland
Toadstool fiddle and a cigarette bow
Where'd you come from, Alice, why'd you go?
[Verse 3]
Then the old snappin' turtle peeked out of his shell
Said, "Little girl, you don't look too well
Take a little swig and a little bitty swallow
You'll feel three times smaller"
[Verse 4]
Then the glow-worm sittin' on the caterpillar tractor
Gave her a smoke of some strange tobacco
The doodle bug said, "Girl, you can't go back there
You'll be ours forever after"
[Chorus]
So she danced all night with a bottle in her hand
Lost in a backwoods Wonderland
Toadstool fiddle and a cigarette bow
Where'd you come from, Alice, why'd you go?
[Bridge]
Little piece of cornbread, swallow it down
'Til you're ten feet high up above the ground
All the king's horse, mules and men
Can't bring little Alice back down again
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
Now it's sassafras tea with an old mad hatter
Went up through the well, grew a jack-vine ladder
She climbed like the devil when the devil came after her
He was fast but she was faster
[Chorus]
Now she's sittin' on the porch with her ma and pa
Tryin' to make sense of the things she saw
Can't wait to wander back to Wonderland
Go trippin' through the bluegrass once again
Danced all night with a bottle in her hand
Lost in a backwoods Wonderland
Toadstool fiddle and a cigarette bow
Where'd you come from, Alice, why'd you go?
[Outro]
Alice in the bluegrass
Little Alice in the bluegrass
Alice in the bluegrass
