They say the neon lights are bright
On Broadway
They say there's always magic in the air
But when you're walkin' down that street
And you ain't have enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere

They say the girls are something else
On Broadway
But lookin' at them just gives me the blues
How ya 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 I won't last too long
On Broadway
I'll catch the Greyhound bus for home they all say
But they are wrong, I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar

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

they are wrong, I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar
I won't quit till I'm a star
On Broadway

No I won't quit till I'm a star
On Broadway
No I won't quit till I'm a star
On Broadway
