On Broadway lyrics

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 you gonna make some time

When all you got is one thin dime

And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes

Hah, they say that I won't last too long

On Broadway

I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say

Oh, but they're wrong, I know they are

'Cause I can play this here guitar

And I won't quit 'til I'm a star

On Broadway

Oh, but they're wrong, I know they are

'Cause I can play this here guitar

And I won't quit 'til I'm a star

On Broadway

On Broadway

I'm gonna make it here

I'll be a big, big man

I'll have my name in lights...
