Taxi Dancer |
| Well, she started out to be a dancer |
| She’s gonna make her livin' dancin' in the Broadway shows |
| SO she hitchhiked cross country from Pasaroba to the Big Red Apple |
| Where your dreams are made and your debts must be paid on time |
| CHORUS |
| I’ll hold you close taxi dancer |
| And I’ll listen to how you outgrew your dreams and how they faded away |
| I’ll hold you close taxi dancer |
| And we’ll pretend this floor is the Broadway stage |
| Well, she wasn’t used to livin' in the city |
| So she took a job as a maid cleanin up at the Gramercy Park Hotel |
| And all her auditions, they didn’t turn out so pretty |
| So she took a job dancin' at the bar down the street as well |
| CHORUS |
| Well, I don’t know how long or how far her fortune did take her |
| But I heard she sits alone drunk in a bar down on 42nd Street |
| And sometimes an old butch will slip a quarter into the jukebox |
| And she’ll stagger to the bar and dance with that girl for free |
| CHORUS |
