"Tango Palace" lyrics

Every town's gotta a tango palace
Old timers chasin' broken dreams
Escapin' whistles stop nightmares
Livin' out 3 movie themes

Every town's gotta a tango dancer
Pretending Latin ancestry
Born somewhere on Main Street
Low branch on the family tree

Never does no disco dancin'
Never try to rock 'n' roll
Says that kinda dancin' that they doin'
Just ain't got his kinda soul

He loves to do the (tango, tango, tango)
Every night it's the (tango, tango, tango)
Till 3 am (tango, tango, tango)
At the Tango Palace, at the Tango Palace

He's got a patent leather hair do
To match the high style of his shoes
Though he swears it's called the tango
It's just another small town blues

He's got a special tango partner
They've danced together, twenty years
She's the stylist in his beauty parlor
Their dancer's messed up two careers

Never does no disco dancin'
Never try to rock 'n' roll
Says that kinda dancin' that they doin'
Just ain't got his kinda soul

Monday, Tuesday it's the (tango, tango, tango)
Wednesday, Thursday it's the (tango, tango, tango)
Friday, Saturday it's the (tango, tango, tango)
At the Tango Palace, at the Tango Palace

Every Sunday it's the (tango, tango, tango)
Every weekday, do the (tango, tango, tango)
Every year, they do the (tango, tango, tango)
At the Tango Palace, at the Tango Palace

Tango
