ray charles - ten cents a dance كلمات أغنية

i work at the palace ballroom, but gee that palace is
cheap
when i get back to my chillly 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 sailers and bow-legged tailors
can pay for their tickets & rent me
butchers and barbers and rats from the harbour
are sweethearts my good luck has sent me
thought 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.

- ray charles
