John Cougar Mellencamp - Taxi Dancer lyrics

Your rating:

She's gonna make her livin' dancin' in the Broadway shows
 So she hitchiked cross country from Pasaroba to the Big Red Apple
 Where your dreams are made, and your debts are 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
