Follies movie - BROADWAY BABY lyrics

rate me

<br>

HATTIE:<br>

I'm just a<br>

Broadway Baby.<br>

Walking off my tired feet.<br>

Pounding Forty-Second Street<br>

To be in a show.<br>

Oh...<br>

Broadway Baby,<br>

Learning how to sing and dance,<br>

Waiting for that one big chance<br>

To be in a show.Oh...Gee.'<br>

I'd like to be<br>

On some marquee,<br>

All twinkling lights,<br>

A spark<br>

To pierce the dark<br>

From Battery Park<br>

To Washington Heights.<br>

Someday, maybe,<br>

All my dreams will be repaid.<br>

Heck, I'd even play the maid<br>

To bc in a show.<br>

Hey, Mr. Producer,<br>

I'm talking to you, sir;<br>

I don't need a lot,<br>

Only what I got,<br>

Plus a tube of greasepaint<br>

And a follow-spot!<br>

I'm a Broadway Baby,<br>

Slaving at the five-and-ten,<br>

Dreaming of the great day whcn<br>

I'll be in a show.Oh...<br>

Broadway Baby,<br>

Making rounds all afternoon,<br>

Eating at a greasy spoon<br>

To have on my dough.<br>

Oh...AtMy tiny flat<br>

There's just my cat.<br>

A bed and o chair<br>

Still<br>

I'll stick it till<br>

I'm on a bill<br>

All over Times Square.<br>

Someday, maybe,<br>

If I stick it long enough,<br>

I may get to strut my stuff<br>

Working for a nice man<br>

Like a Ziegfeld or a Weismann<br>

HATTIE, THE WHITMANS, SOLANGE:<br>

In a great big<br>

Broadway show!<br>

<br>
