Ten Cents a Dance (Remastered 2015) - Ruth Etting[00:00:00]

Written by：Richard Rodgers/Lorenz Hart[00:00:02]

I work at the palace ball[00:00:04]

But gee that palace is cheap[00:00:09]

When I get back to my chilly hallroom[00:00:13]

I'm much too tired to sleep[00:00:18]

I'm one of those lady teachers[00:00:22]

A beautiful hostess you know[00:00:26]

The kind the palace features[00:00:31]

At exactly a dime a throw[00:00:35]

Ten cents a dance[00:00:41]

That's what they pay me[00:00:43]

Gosh how they weigh me down[00:00:45]

Ten cents a dance[00:00:50]

Pansys and rough guys[00:00:52]

Tough guys who tear my gown[00:00:55]

Seven to midnight I hear drums[00:00:59]

Loudly the saxaphone blows[00:01:04]

Trumpets are breaking my eardrums[00:01:08]

Customers crush my toes[00:01:13]

Sometimes I think I've found my hero[00:01:17]

But it's a queer romance[00:01:22]

All that you need is a ticket[00:01:26]

Come on big boy[00:01:31]

Ten cents a dance[00:01:33]

Fighters and sailors and bow legged tailors[00:01:36]

Can pay for a ticket and rent me[00:01:39]

Butchers and barbers and rats from the harbors[00:01:44]

Are sweethearts my good luck has sent me[00:01:47]

Though I've a chorus of elderly beaus[00:01:52]

Stockings are porous with holes in the toes[00:01:56]

I'm there till closing time[00:02:01]

Dance and be merry it's only a dime[00:02:06]

Ten cents a dance[00:02:10]

That's what they pay me[00:02:13]

Gosh how they weigh me down[00:02:15]

Ten cents a dance[00:02:19]

Pansys and rough guys[00:02:22]

Tough guys who tear my gown[00:02:24]

Seven to midnight I hear drums[00:02:29]

Loudly the saxaphone blows[00:02:33]

Trumpets are breaking my eardrums[00:02:38]

Customers crush my toes[00:02:43]

Sometimes I think I've found my hero[00:02:47]

But it's a queer romance[00:02:52]

All that you need is a ticket[00:02:56]

Come on big boy[00:03:02]

Ten cents a dance[00:03:05]
