Ten Cents A Dance Ruth Etting Words by Lorenz Hart and Music by Richard Rodgers (1930) charted at #5 (1930) 
Ten cents a dance, that's what they pay me Gosh, how they weigh me down Ten cents a dance, pansies and rough guys Tough guys who tear my gown 
Seven to midnight I hear drums Loudly the saxophone blows Trumpets are tearing my eardrums Customers crush my toes 
Sometimes I think I've found my hero But it's a queer romance All that you need is a ticket Come on, big boy, ten cents a dance!
