JOHN (COUGAR) 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 [Chorus:] 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 [Chorus] Oh the stage, baby
