《Ten Cents a Dance》歌词

[00:00:00] Ten Cents A Dance - Ruth Etting

[00:00:05] I work at the palace ballroom

[00:00:10] But gee that palace is cheap

[00:00:14] When i get back to my chilly hall room

[00:00:19] I'm much to tired to sleep

[00:00:23] I'm one of those lady teachers

[00:00:28] A beautiful hostess you know

[00:00:32] The kind the palace features

[00:00:37] Exactly a dime a throw

[00:00:42] Ten cents a dance

[00:00:45] That's what they pay me

[00:00:47] Gosh how they weigh me down

[00:00:52] Ten cents a dance

[00:00:54] Pansies and rough guys

[00:00:56] Tough guys who tear my gown

[00:01:01] Seven to midnight i hear drums

[00:01:05] Loudly the saxophone blows

[00:01:10] Trumpets are breaking my eardrums

[00:01:15] Customers crush my toes

[00:01:19] Sometime i think

[00:01:22] I've found my hero

[00:01:24] But it's a queer romance

[00:01:28] All that you need is a ticket

[00:01:33] Come on big boy ten cents a dance

[00:01:38] Fighters and sailors and bowlegged tailors

[00:01:42] Can pay for their ticket and rent me

[00:01:46] Butchers and barbers and rats from the harbors

[00:01:50] Are sweethearts my good luck has send me

[00:01:54] Though i've a chorus of elderly beaux

[00:01:59] Stockings are porous with hole at the toes

[00:02:04] I'm there till closing time

[00:02:08] Dance and be merry it's only a dime

[00:02:13] Ten cents a dance

[00:02:15] That's what they pay me

[00:02:18] Gosh how they weigh me down

[00:02:22] Ten cents a dance

[00:02:25] Pansies and rough guys

[00:02:27] Tough guys who tear my gown

[00:02:32] Seven to midnight i hear drums

[00:02:36] Loudly the saxophone blows

[00:02:41] Trumpets are breaking my eardrums

[00:02:46] Customers crush my toes

[00:02:50] Sometime i think

[00:02:53] I've found my hero

[00:02:55] But it's a queer romance

[00:03:00] All that you need is a ticket

[00:03:05] Come on big boy ten cents a dance
