They say the neon lights are bright On Broadway They say there's always magic in the air But when you're walkin' down that street And you ain't got enough to eat The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
They say the girls are somethin' else On Broadway But lookin' at them just gives me the blues '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
They say that I won't last too long On Broadway I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say But they're dead wrong, I know they are 'Cause I can play this here guitar And I won't quit till I'm a star On Broadway
But they're dead wrong, I know they are 'Cause I can play this here guitar And I won't quit till I'm a star On Broadway On Broadway I'm gonna make it, yeah On Broadway I'll be a big, big man You gonna know my name On Broadway I've been down Broadway I've been down Broadway On Broadway
Break your heart on broadway
Everybody gonna know my name On Broadway
