On Broadway

They say that

Neon lights are bright on Broadway

They say there's always magic in the air

But when you're walking down the street

And you ain't had enough to eat

The city all lights up and you're nowhere



They say

The girls are something else on Broadway

Looking at them just gives me the blues

'Cause how're you 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

Love won't last too long on Broadway

Now catch a Greyhound bus for home

They all say

I bet they're wrong, I know they are

'Cause I can play this here guitar

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

On Broadway
