Текст песни Dance Little Jean - 2001 Digital Remaster - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

I played a weddin' for the money
And I wished I could'a told the bride and groom
Just what I think of marriage
And what's in store after their honeymoon
And I was grumblin' to the dancers
About how men and women aughta live apart
And how a promise never made cannot be broken
And can never break a heart
When suddenly from outta nowhere
A little girl came dancin 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
And they said dance little Jean this day is for you
Two people you love stood up to so "I do!"
Dance little Jean a prayer that you had
Was answered today your momma's marryin 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 the little girl had spent
And they told the band to pack it up
Bout the time the couple cut the cake
But we played as long as they stayed for
Love, laughs and little Jeanie's sake
And we play 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 momma's marryin your dad
It was answered today, your momma's marryin your dad
