Rita was sixteen years, hazel eyes and chestnut hair
D A
She made the Woolworth counter shine

And Eddie was a sweet romancer and a darn good dancer
D A
And they'd waltz the aisles of the five and dime
Eddie played the steel guitar and his mama cried 'cuz he played in the bars
A D
Cause they'd sing, Dance a little closer to me
D A
Dance a little closer now
A Bm E
Dance a little closer tonight
A Bm
Dance a little closer to me cause it's closing time
D E A
And love's on sale tonight at this five and dime
One of the boys in Eddie's band took a shine to Rita's hands
