WHO WILL YOU DANCE FOR TONIGHT
Written by: Howard Delnick
Verse:
OH, SHE WANTED TO BE A DANCER, IT WAS THE DREAM OF HER LIFE
SHE WAS ONLY SIXTEEN YEARS OLD
SHE PUT HER THINGS TOGETEHER, AND HEADED FOR THE CITY LIGHTS
WHERE SHE WAS GOING, SHE DIDN'T KNOW
NOBODY TOLD HER OF THE DANGERS
TO BE WEIRY OF STANGERS
Chorus:
OH, WHO WILL YOU DANCE FOR TONIGHT
DO YOU THINK HE CAN MAKE YOU
A STAR OVER NIGHT
DO YOU THINK HE CAN HELP YOU
GET YOUR NAME IN LIGHTS
OH, WHO WILL YOU DANCE FOR TONIGHT
Verse:
THE BUS PULLED IN AT MIDNIGHT, SHE WAS SO FAR FROM HOME
BIG CITY, DIDN'T EVEN CARE
SHE HAD LEFT HER CHILDHOOD, TO WALK THE STREETS OF GOLD
AND WHEN SHE GOT HERE, THEY WEREN'T THERE
NOBODY TOLD HER OF THE DANGERS
TO BE WEIRY OF STANGERS
Chorus:
Verse:
THIS STORY IS NO DIFF'RENT, FROM ONES YOU'VE HEARD BEFORE
HOW A LIFE GOT SHATTERED, ONE MORE TIME
SHE STILL DREAMS OF DANCING,
THOUGHT THE YEARS HAVE PASSED HER BY
CITY STREETS HAVE MADE, THIS CHILD GROW OLD
NOBODY TOLD HER OF THE DANGERS
TO BE WEIRY OF STRANGERS
Chorus: (twice)
