Taxi Dancer - John Mellencamp[00:00:00]
Oh yeah[00:00:12]
Well she started out[00:00:23]
Just to be a dancer[00:00:27]
Gonna make her livin' dancin'[00:00:33]
In the Broadway shows[00:00:38]
So she hitchhiked cross the country[00:00:44]
From Pasaroba to the Big Red Apple[00:00:47]
Where your dreams are made[00:00:55]
Your debts must be paid on time[00:00:59]
Well she wasn't used to[00:01:06]
Livin' in the city[00:01:09]
So she took a job cleanin' up as a maid[00:01:16]
At the Grammercy Park Hotel[00:01:20]
And all her auditions[00:01:26]
They didn't turn out so pretty[00:01:30]
So she took a job dancin'[00:01:37]
At the bar down the street as well[00:01:40]
I'll hold you close Taxi Dancer[00:01:49]
And I'll listen to[00:01:58]
How your outgrew your dreams[00:01:59]
How they faded away[00:02:03]
I'll hold you close Taxi Dancer[00:02:10]
We can pretend this floor[00:02:19]
Is the Broadway stage[00:02:23]
Well I don't know how long or how far[00:02:29]
Her fortune did take her[00:02:34]
But I heard she sits alone drunk[00:02:40]
In a bar downtown on 42nd Street[00:02:44]
And sometimes an old Butch[00:02:51]
Will slip a quarter into the jukebox[00:02:53]
And she'll stagger to the bar[00:03:02]
And dance with that girl for free[00:03:05]
I'll hold you close Taxi Dancer[00:03:14]
And I'll listen to how your outgrew your dreams[00:03:23]
How they faded away[00:03:28]
I'll hold you close Taxi Dancer[00:03:35]
We can pretend this floor[00:03:44]
Is the Broadway stage[00:03:48]
Broadway stage[00:03:54]
