[00:00.00]Ten Cents A Dance - Carol Burnett
[00:05.18]Written by：Richard Rodgers/Lorenz Hart
[00:10.36]I work at the palace ballroom but gee that palace is cheap
[00:17.10]When I get back to my chillly hallroom I'm much too tired to sleep
[00:26.34]I'm one of those lady teachers a beautiful hostess you know
[00:33.32]One that the palace features at exactly a dime a throw
[00:49.91]Ten cents a dance that's what they pay me
[00:55.67]Gonsh how they weigh me down
[01:01.65]Ten cents a dance pansies and rough guys tough guys who tear my gown
[01:14.13]Seven to midnight I hear drums loudly the saxophone blows
[01:25.94]Trumpets are tearing my ear drums customers crush my toes
[01:38.42]Sometimes I think I've found my hero
[01:44.78]But it's a queer romance
[01:50.79]All that you need is a ticket
[01:56.76]Come on big boy ten cents a dance
[02:04.73]Nigster fighters and sailers and bow legged tailors
[02:10.24]Can pay for their tickets and rent me
[02:15.98]Nigster butchers and barbers and rats from the harbour
[02:23.45]Are sweethearts my good luck has sent me
[02:28.25]Thought I've a chorus of elderly bows
[02:32.84]Stockings are porous with holes at the toes
[02:37.59]I'm here till closing time
[02:43.11]Dance and be merry it's only a dime
[02:56.63]Sometimes I think I've found my hero
[03:04.02]But it's a queer romance
[03:09.43]All that you need is a ticket
[03:15.13]Come on big boy ten cents a dance
