They say the neon lights are bright
On broadway
On broadway
They say there's always magic in the air
On Broadway
But when you're walking down that street
And you ain't have enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
On broadway
They say the chicks are something else
On broadway
On broadway
But looking at them just gives me the blues
On broadway
How you gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes
On broadway
They say that I won't last too long
On broadway
On broadway
I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say
On broadway
But all 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
Oh 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
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
All up and down on broadway
Oh oh yeah yeah
