12. The Dance Hall

1919: The Ballad of Rexford
by Mark Lee Townsend



 

Take the bus to Long Street
and Wall
The band is playing there
The war’s over it seems and
life is a dream
and girls are everywhere
We hear the music, we all
love to dance
As I approach you will you
take a chance?
If you please
It’d be an honor if you’d
dance with me
There’s something in the way
you looked at me
Has me thinking of we
In this time of victory wine
I’ve all the time to spare
The laughter flows free,
the spoils of liberty
We dance without a care
We’re cheek to cheek for
Moonlight Serenade
But when it’s over will you go
your way?
If you please
It’d be an honor if you’d
dance with me
There’s something in the way
you looked at me
Has me thinking of we
If only I could make the
clock stand still
Then you’d be mine forever,
but until
If you please
It’d be an honor if you’d
dance with me
There’s something in the way
you looked at me
Has me thinking…
