Lyrics

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 had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
They say the women treat you right 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
They say I won't last too long on Broadway
I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home, they all say
But they are wrong, I know they are
'Cause I can play this guitar
And I won't quit 'til I'm a star on Broadway
No, no, no, I’m not gonna quit it
Not til I really hit it
On Broadway
Written by: Barry Mann, Cynthia Weil, Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller
