Dance Little Jean Sözleri

I played a weddin' for the money and I wished I could have told the bride and groom

Just what I think of marriage and what's in store after the honeymoon

And I was grumblin'to the dancers 'bout how men and women ought to live apart

And how a promise never made could not be broken and could never break a heart

Suddenly from out of nowhere, this little girl came danc'in across the floor

And all her crinolines were billowing beneath the skirt of calico she wore

oh what a joy fell on the honored guests, each one of them was draw into her dream

And they laughed and stamped and clapped their hands and hollered at her, "Dance Little Jean"

And they said, "Dance Little Jean this day is for you

Two people that ya love stood up to say, 'I do'"

"Dance Little Jean a prayer that ya had

Was answered today your mamma's marryin' your dad"

Well, this cynic's heart just melted as I figur'd what this get together meant

And how it ended years of tears and sad confusion that the little girl had spent

They told the band to pack it up about time the couple cut the cake

But we played as long as they stayed for love and laughs and Little Jeanie's sake

And we played "Dance Little Jean this day is for you

Two people that you love stood up to say, 'I do'"

"Dance Little Jean a prayer that ya had

Was answered today your mamma's marryin' your dad"

We said "Dance Little Jean this day is for you

Two people that you love stood up to say, 'I do'"

"Dance Little Jean a prayer that ya had

Was answered today your mamma's marryin' your dad"
