I think this is sung by Jeannie C. Riley, but I'm not sure.

"The Box It Came In"
My clothes are all ragged........ my good will's coats not the best........
and I'm walkin' on card board, in my last dollar dress.........
I looked in the closet to find my wedding gown,
but the box that it came in ......... was all that I found.
CHORUS
He took everything with him-------that was'nt nailed down.
Bet he's gotta' new sweet heart, to wear my wedding gown--------"(STOP MUSIC
!)"
BUT...........somewhere I'll find him, "(BEGIN MUSIC)"...........then I'll
have peace
of mind...........
and the box he comes home in-------will be all satin lined!!!!!
REPEAT CHORUS............. and add at ending----"Yes, the box he comes home
in---------will be all satin lined!!!!!!!!
