- Dance little jean Lyrics
Album: Twenty Years of Dirt I played a wedding 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 their honeymoon And I was grumbling to the dancers About how men and women ought to live apart And how a promise never made can not be broken And can never break a heart Then suddenly from out of nowhere A little girl came dancing cross the floor And all her crillowins were billowin' Beneath the skirt of calico that she wore And oh, what a joy fell on the honored guests As each one of them was drawn into her dream And they laughed and stamped and clapped their hands And hollered at her "Dance little Jean!" [Chorus] And they said: "Dance little Jean, This day is for you, Two people you love Stood up to say "I do." Dance little Jean, A prayer that you had Was answered today, Your mama's marrying your dad." Well, my cynical heart just melted Cause I figured what this get together meant How it ended years of tears And sad confusion that little girl had spent And they told the band to pack it up About the time the couple cut the cake But we played as long as they stayed For love last and little Jeanie's sake [Chorus] And we played: "Dance little Jean, This day is for you, Two people you love Stood up to say "I do." Dance little Jean, A prayer that you had Was answered today, Your mama's marrying your dad." It was answered today Your mama's marrying your dad.
