Dance Little Jean
by
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
GI played a wedding for the money,
and I Gwished that I could G7tell the bride and Cgroom
Just Dwhat I thought of D7marriage
And Cwhat in store after their honeGymoon
and I was Ggrumblin' to the dancers
'bout how Gmen and women G7ought to live Capart
And how a Dpromise never made can not be Cbroken
And can Dnever break your Gheart
When sudenly from out of nowhere
A little girl came dancing 'cross the floor
All her crinolines were billowing
Beneath the skirt of calico that she wore
Oh what a joy fell on the honored guests
As each of them was drawn inside her dream
And they laughed and clapped and stomped their feet
And hollered at her "Dance little Jean"
G7 CDance, little Jean, this Gday is for you
two Gpeople you Emlove, Cstood up and said &quDot;I do"
CDance little Jean, the Gprayer that you had
Was anCswered today
Your mama's D7marrying your Gdad
Well, my cynical heart just melted
'Cause I knew what this get together meant
How it ended year of tears and sad confusion
That the little girl had spent
Well 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 and laughs and little Jeanie's sake
(Chorus)
