they say the neon lights are bright
on broadway on broadway
they say there’s always magic in the air on broadway
but when you’re walkin’ down that street
and you ain’t had enough to eat
the glitter rubs right off and you’re nowhere on broadway
they say the girls are something else
on broadway on broadway
but looking at them just gives me the blues on broadway
’cause how ya gonna make some time
when all you got is one thin dime
and one thin dime won’t even shine your shoes on broadway
ha they say that i won’t last too long
on broadway on broadway
i’ll catch a greyhound bus for home they all say on broadway
but oh they’re dead wrong i know they are
’cause i can play this here
and i won’t quit till i’m a star on broadway on broadway
oh they’re dead wrong i know they are
’cause i can play this here
and i won’t quit till i’m a star on broadway on broadway
