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 had enough to eat The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
They say the girls are something else on Broadway But looking 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
Ha! They say that I won't last too long on Broadway I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home, they all say But oh! 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
Oh, 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 I'll be a big, big, big man I'll have my name in lights Everybody, everybody's gonna know me, yes All up and down Broadway Ohhhhh yeah!

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 had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
They say the girls are something else on Broadway
But looking 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
Ha! They say that I won't last too long on Broadway
I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home, they all say
But oh! 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
Oh, 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
I'll be a big, big, big man
I'll have my name in lights
Everybody, everybody's gonna know me, yes
All up and down Broadway
Ohhhhh yeah!
