[Verse 1]
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
And they'd sing

[Chorus]
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 2]
Eddie played thе steel guitar and his mama cried 'cause he playеd in the bars
And kept young Rita out late at night
So they married up in Abilene
Lost a child in Tennessee
But still that love survived
'Cause they'd sing

[Chorus]
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
