"Paper Mansions" is the name of a 1967 single and hit by Dottie West. The single was first a 45 RPM.

"Paper Mansions" was released by Dottie West in 1967 for her new "With All My Heart and Soul" album (which sold quite well), which only featured this single. This song was West's last Top 10 hit of the decade as a solo act. This song is and example of one of the few songs not written by West herself. The song was the last single released in 1967 and became a Top 10 hit in 1968, reaching No. 8 on the Hot Country Songs list on Billboard's chart. It didn't do as well on Cashbox's chart, only making the Top 15 there, at No. 13.

This song is one of West's better-known hits from the 1960s. This was virtually impossible to find on any Dottie West album up until 1996, when RCA records released a compilation album of all her hits under RCA titled "The Essential Dottie West". No other major artists have recorded this song yet.
