The Hold Steady - You Gotta Dance (With Who You Came to the Dance With) lyrics

Say a prayer for the Cityscape Skins Half are getting sprung and half are going back in Ain't no getting through to Gideon He lost his mind when they jumped him in Say a prayer for sweet Charlemange He had the pigs at the door, he put the d** down the drain He's gonna have to come up with seven grand some other way The Gangster Disciples knocked me off of my bicycle It was midnight down by Selby & Griggs I shouldn't have gone down there but it was too late to switch You gotta dance with who you came with You gotta go with what got you there I came with chipped teeth and bleached blonde hair You gotta make due with what they gave to you You know they took ten bucks and my tennis shoes So say a prayer for the boys in the band And I was out of my head so it was out of my hands White wine and the tallboy cans They powered up and they proceeded to jam, man Hit it again on the south side of the gym And my one friend got two girls in a twist I got stuck with some priss that went and sliced up her wrists But you know you gotta dance with who you came to the dance with
