lirik lagu ten cents a dance – rodgers and hart
(verse)
i work at the palace ballroom
aw 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
(chorus)
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 eardrums
customers crush my toes
sometimes i think
i’ve found my hero
but it’s a queer ro-
mance
all you need is a ticket
come on, big boy
ten cents a dance
(bridge)
fighters and sailors
and bow-legged tailors
can pay for their tickets and rent me
butchers and barbers
and rats from the harbor
are sweethearts my good luck has sent me
though i’ve a chorus
of elderly beaux
stockings are porous
with holes in the toes
i’m here till closing time
dance and be merry, it’s only a dime
(chorus)
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 eardrums
customers crush my toes
sometimes i think
i’ve found my hero
but it’s a queer ro-
mance
all you need is a ticket
come on, big boy
ten cents a dance
