They say the 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 glitter, it dies off and you're nowhere
They say the girls are something else on Broadway But looking at them just gives me the blues
Now how you gonna make some time When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime would even shine your shoes
They say that I won't last too long on Broadway I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say
But 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
But 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
On Broadway
I won't quit till I'm a star on Broadway
