Connie Francis - Does Ol' Broadway Ever Sleep? lyrics

rate me

(Eddie Curtis)

Does ol' Broadway ever sleep, does ol' Broadway ever sleep

Now I have seen ol' Broadway blink its eyes

But I've never seen it slumber deep

I've heard ol' Broadway just laugh out loud

And I've heard it softly weep

But no one answers when I ask, does ol' Broadway ever sleep?

They did the Charleston a long time ago

And ol' Broadway loved it so

Then the Lindy came upon the scene

And Broadway hollered, hey, go man, go.

Now ol' Broadway just do the twist

From the peppermint crowds to high society

But when Broadway's dancin' merrily

One thought one thought keeps hauntin' me.

Does ol' Broadway ever sleep, does ol' Broadway ever sleep

Now I have seen ol' Broadway blink its eyes

But I've never seen it slumber deep

I've heard ol' Broadway just laugh out loud

And I've heard it softly weep

But no one answers when I ask, does ol' Broadway ever sleep?

Or does it lie awake just countin' sheep

Oh, does ol' Broadway ever sleep

Goodnight folks I'm goin' to bed...
