On Broadway
The Drifters
On Broadway (Original Version)
They say the neon lights are bright on Broadway (on Broadway)
They say thereÂ’s always magic in the air (on Broadway)
But when youÂ’re walking down that street
And you ainÂ’t had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and youÂ’re nowhere (on Broadway)
They say the girls are something else on Broadway (on Broadway)
But looking at them just give me the blues (on Broadway)
How you gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime wonÂ’t even shine your shoes (on Broadway)
They say that I wonÂ’t last too long on Broadway (on Broadway)
IÂ’ll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say (on Broadway)
TheyÂ’re dead wrong I know they are
I can play this here guitar
And I wonÂ’t quit till IÂ’m a star on Broadway (on Broadway)
TheyÂ’re dead wrong I know they are
I can play this here guitar
And I wonÂ’t quit till IÂ’m a star on Broadway (on Broadway)
On Broadway (on Broadway)
IÂ’m gonna make it yeah (on Broadway)
IÂ’ll be a big, big, big man (on Broadway)
IÂ’ll have my name in lights (on Broadway)
Everybody, everybody, everybodyÂ’s going to know me yeah (on Broadway)
All up and down Broadway
