They say the neon lights are bright
They say the neon lights are bright
On Broadway
On Broadway
They say there's always magic in the air
They say there's always magic in the air
But when you're walkin' down that street
But when you're walkin' down that street
And you ain't got enough to eat
And you ain't got enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
They say the girls are somethin' else
They say the girls are something else
On Broadway
On Broadway
But lookin' at them just gives me the blues
But lookin' at them just gives me the blues
How ya gonna make some time
How ya gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime
When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes
And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes
They say that I won't last too long on Broadway
They say that I won't last too long on Broadway
I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say
I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say
But they're wrong, I know they are
But they're wrong, I know they are
I can play this here guitar
I can play this guitar here
And I won't quit till I'm a star
And I won't quit until I'm a star
On Broadway
On Broadway
But they're wrong, I know they are
But they're wrong, I know they are
I can play this here guitar
I can play this guitar here
And I won't quit till I'm a star on Broadway
And I won't quit until I'm a star on Broadway
On Broadway
On Broadway
I'm gonna make it, yeah
I'm gonna do it, yeah
I'll be a big, big man
I'll be a big, big man
I'll have my name in lights
I'll have my name in lights
Everybody gonna know me
Everybody's gonna know me
All up and down Broadway
All up and down Broadway
All up and down Broadway
All up and down Broadway
All up and down Broadway
All up and down Broadway
