Ten Cents A Dance - Chris Connor (克利丝·康娜)[00:00:00]
Written by:Richard Rodgers/Lorenz Hart[00:00:01]
I work at the Palace Ballroom but[00:00:09]
Gee that Palace is cheap[00:00:19]
When I get back to my chilly hall room[00:00:24]
I'm much too tired to sleep[00:00:31]
I'm one of those lady teachers[00:00:39]
A beautiful hostess you know[00:00:44]
The kind the Palace features[00:00:51]
For only a dime a throw[00:00:58]
Ten cents a dance[00:01:08]
That's what they pay me[00:01:14]
Gosh how they weigh me down[00:01:18]
Ten cents a dance[00:01:24]
Pansies and rough guys[00:01:28]
Tough guys who tear my gown[00:01:31]
Seven to midnight I hear drums[00:01:39]
Loudly the saxophone blows[00:01:45]
Trumpets are tearing my eardrums[00:01:52]
Customers crush my toes[00:01:59]
Sometime I think[00:02:06]
I've found my hero[00:02:12]
But it's a queer romance[00:02:15]
All that you need is a ticket[00:02:21]
Come on big boy ten cents a dance[00:02:28]
Fighters and sailors and bowlegged tailors[00:02:43]
Can pay for their ticket and rent me[00:02:47]
Butchers and barbers and rats from the harbors[00:02:50]
Are sweethearts my good luck has sent me[00:02:54]
Though I've a chorus of elderly beaux[00:03:00]
Stockings are porous with holes at the toes[00:03:07]
I'm here till closing time[00:03:13]
Dance and be merry it's only a dime[00:03:23]
Sometime I think[00:03:32]
I've found my hero[00:03:37]
But it's a queer romance[00:03:40]
All that you need is a ticket[00:03:47]
Come on big boy ten cents a dance[00:03:55]
