Vicki Lawrence - Dime a Dance lyrics

I came to the city cause the folks back home Thought I was pretty enough to make it They bought me a ticket on a star-bound greyhound I was on my way But I landed in a dance hall part time money was all I could make Sayin' hey mister, take a chance It only costs you a dime a dance And if you're lookin' for romance I'll be nice to you Hey mister, it's so cold When you don't have someone to hold I'll do anything I'm told to do Baby, I want you At the time he was living with his wife and kids She wasn't giving him the love he needed He poured out his troubles at the Sleepwell Motel As I poured the wine He said that he was gonna marry me If she'd only let him go So a worn-out promise and a party gown Keeps me in this town Sayin' hey mister, take a chance It only costs you a dime a dance And if you're lookin' for romance I'll be nice to you Hey mister, it's so cold When you don't have someone to hold I'll do anything I'm told to do Baby, I want you
