lirik lagu ten cents a dance – ella fitzgerald

Loading...

i work at the palace ballroom
but gee, that palace is cheap
when i get back to my chilly hallroom
i’m much too tired to sleep

i’m one of those lady teachers
a beautiful hostess you know
one that the palace features
at exactly a dime a throw

ten cents a dance
that’s what they pay me
gosh, how they weigh me down
ten cents a dance
pansies and rough guys
tough guys who tear my gown

seven to midnight i hear drums
loudly the saxophone blows
trumpets are tearing my ear drums
customers crush my toes

sometimes i think, i’ve found my hero
but it’s a queer romance
all that you need is a ticket
come on, big boy
ten cents a dance

fighters and sailors and bow-legged tailors
can pay for their tickets and rent me
butchers and barbers and rats from the harbors
are sweethearts my good luck has sent me

though i’ve a chorus of elderly bows
stockings are porous with holes at the toes
i’m here till closing time
dance and be merry, it’s only a dime

sometimes i think, i’ve found my hero
but it’s a queer romance
all that you need is a ticket
come on, come on big boy
ten cents a dance
