Aaron Watson - Love At The Five And Dime Lyrics

[Verse 1: Aaron Watson]
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

[Verse 2: Aaron Watson]
Now Eddie played the steel guitar
His mama cried 'cause he played in the bars
And 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

[Chorus: Aaron Watson & Jamie Lin Wilson]
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 closing time
And love's on sale tonight at this five and dime

[Verse 3: Jamie Lin Wilson]
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
He was singin' a different tune
Sporting Miss Rita back by his side
And they'd sing
[Chorus: Aaron Watson & Jamie Lin Wilson]
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 closing time
And love's on sale tonight at this five and dime

[Verse 4: Aaron Watson & Jamie Lin Wilson]
Eddie traveled with the bar room bands
Until arthritis took his hands
Now he sells insurance on the side
And Rita's got her house to keep
She writes dime store novels and a love so sweet
They dance to the radio late at night
And he sang

[Chorus: Aaron Watson & Jamie Lin Wilson]
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 closing time
And love's on sale tonight at this five and dime (Dance a little closer)
Yeah, love's on sale tonight at this five and dime (Dance a little closer)
And love's on sale tonight at this five and dime (Dance a little closer)

[Outro: Aaron Watson]
And love's on sale tonight at this five and dime
