Lyrics for Taxi Dancer by John Mellencamp:
| | | Artist: | John Mellencamp |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Taxi Dancer | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 81 | | | | Lyrics: | Written by John Mellencamp
Oh yeah
Well she started out, just to be a dancer
Gonna
make her livin' dancin'
In the Broadway shows
So she hitchhiked cross the country
From
Pasaroba to the Big Red Apple
Where your dreams are made
Your debts must be paid on
time
Well she wasn't used to livin' in the city
So she took a job cleanin' up as a
maid
At the Grammercy 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
*I'll hold you
close, Taxi Dancer
And I'll listen to how your outgrew your dreams
How they faded
away
I'll hold you close, Taxi Dancer
We can pretend this floor is the Broadway
stage
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 downtown 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
(*Repeat Chorus)
Oh the stage, baby | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
