[Intro]
[Verse]
I donât have to be, the only one you dream About,
the one that you canât live withou, I just wanna make you smile.
So donât go calling me, the angel on your doorstep,
Cause I fell just like all the rest, I was too broke down to fly...
[Chorus]
But Iâve got a quarter for the Jukebox.
Honey Iâm going dancin, you coming or not?
Take a chance on me Daddy, this may be all we got.
And the night may be black & the road may be long
your voice may crack, & it all sounds wrong,
itâs only a song, so for heavenâs sake wonât you sing along?
[Verse]
Now taste those tears, it seems your luck has all been shot,
Youâve got nothing left to promise God,
Heâs tired of listening anyhow...
But Iâm still here, & Iâve been waiting my whole life,
for someone just to see me twice,
the way youâre looking at me now...
[Chorus]
But Iâve got a quarter for the Jukebox.
Honey Iâm going dancin, you coming or not?
Take a chance on me Daddy, this may be all we got.
And the night may be black & the road may be long
your voice may crack, & it all sounds wrong,
itâs only a song, so for heavenâs sake wonât you sing along?
[Bridge]
No use asking why? Some birds just ainât built to fly.
But sooner or later, we all have to try...
[Chorus] (one time through sung, one instrumental)
But Iâve got a quarter for the Jukebox.
Honey Iâm going dancin, you coming or not?
Take a chance on me Daddy, this may be all we got.
And the night may be black & the road may be long
your voice may crack, & it all sounds wrong,
itâs only a song, so for heavenâs sake wonât you sing along?
