Love At The Five And Dime (Live|1988 Anderson Fair) - Nanci Griffith
Written by：Nanci Griff
Rita was sixteen years
Hazel eyes and chestnut hair
She made the Woolworth counter shine
Eddie was a sweet romancer
And a darn good dancer
They'd waltz the aisles of the five and dime
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
It's closing time
And love's on sale tonight at this five and dime
Eddie played the steel guitar and his mama
Cried 'cuz he played in the bars
And kept young Rita out late at night
So they married up in Abilene
Lost a child in Tennessee
Still that love survived
And they'd sing
Dance a little closer to me
Hey dance a little closer now
Dance a little closer tonight
Dance a little closer to me
Hey it's closing 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 hands
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 they'd sing
Dance a little closer to me
Hey dance a little closer now
Dance a little closer tonight
Dance a little closer to me
Hey it's closing time
And love's on sale
Tonight at this five and dime
Eddie traveled with the barroom bands
Till arthritis took his hands
Now he sells insurance on the side
Rita's got a house to keep dime store
Novels and a love so sweet
They dance to the radio late at night
And they'd sing
Dance a little closer to me
Hey dance a little closer now
Dance a little closer tonight
Dance a little closer to me
Hey it's closing time
And love's on sale
Tonight at this five and dime
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 waltzed the aisles of the five and dime
They'd waltz the aisles of the five and dime
They'd waltz the aisles of the five and dime
