broadway baby - elaine stritch lyrics

Loading...

[hattie]
i’m just a broadway baby
walking off my tired feet
pounding forty*second street
to be in a show, oh

broadway baby
learning how to sing and dance
waiting for that one big chance
to be in a show, oh

gee
i’d like to be
on some marquee
all twinkling lights
a spark
to pierce the dark
from battery park
to washington heights!

someday, maybe
all my dreams will be repaid
heck, i’d even play the maid
to be in a show

hey, mr. producer
i’m talking to you, sir
i don’t need a lot
only what i got
plus a tube of greasepaint and a follow*spot!
i’m a broadway baby
slaving at a five*and*ten
dreaming of the great day when
i’ll be in a show, oh

broadway baby
making rounds all afternoon
eating at a greasy spoon
to save on my dough, oh

at
my tiny flat
therе’s just my cat
a bed and a chair
still
i’ll stick it till
i’m on a bill
all over times squarе!

someday, maybe
if i stick it long enough
i may get to strut my stuff
working for a nice man
like a ziegfeld or a weismann
in a great big
broadway show!
