歌詞
Rita was sixteen years
Hazel eyes and chestnut hair
She made the Woolworth counter shine
And Eddie was a sweet romancer
And a darn good dancer
And they'd waltz the aisles of the five and dime
Now, Eddie played the steel guitar
And his momma cried 'cause he played in the bars
He kept young Rita out late at night
So, they married up in Abilene
Lost a child in Tennessee
Oh, and still that love survived
'Cause they'd sing
"Dance a little closer to me
Dance a little closer now
Dance a little closer tonight
Dance a little closer to me
'Cause it's closin' time
And love's on sale tonight
At this five and dime"
One of the boys in Eddie's band
Took a shine to Rita's hand
So Eddie ran off with the bass man's wife
Oh, but he was back by June
Singin' a different tune
And sportin' Miss Rita back by his side
And he sang
"Dance a little closer to me
Dance a little closer, now
Dance a little closer tonight
Dance a little closer to me
'Cause it's closin' time
And love's on sale tonight
At this five and dime"
Eddie traveled with the bar-room band
Till arthritis took his hands
Now he sells insurance on the side
And Rita's got a house to keep
Dime store novels and a love so sweet
They dance to radio late at night
And they sing
"Dance a little closer to me
Dance a little closer now
Dance a little closer tonight
Dance a little closer to me
'Cause it's closin' time
And love's on sale tonight
At this five and dime"
"Dance a little closer to me
Dance a little closer now
Dance a little closer tonight
Dance a little closer to me
'Cause it's closin' time
And love's on sale tonight
At this five and dime"
