They say the neon lights are bright
On Broadway
They say there's always magic in the air
But when you're walking down that street
And you ain't have enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
They say the boys are somethin' else
On Broadway (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 say
But they get wrong, I know they are
I won't stop now I've come this far
And I won't quit till I'm a star
On Broadway
(On Broadway)
