On Broadway - The Drifters
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 the street
And you ain't had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off
And you're nowhere
On broadway
They say the girls are something else
On broadway on broadway
But looking at them just
Gives me the blues
On broadway
How you're gonna make some time
When all you have 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 see
On broadway
Oh they're wrong
I know they are
I can play this here guitar
And I won't quit till
I'm a star on broadway
On broadway
Oh yeah they're wrong
I know they are
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
On broadway
I'll be a big big big man
On broadway
I'll have my name in the lights
Everybody
Everybody gonna know me yeah
Oh nothing down broadway
On broadway
