Broadway Baby

[HATTIE]
Just a Broadway baby
Walking off my tired feet
Pounding Forty-second Street
To be in a show

Broadway baby
Learning how to sing and dance
Heck, I'd even play the maid
To be in a show

Say, Mister Producer
I'm talkin' 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 the five-and-ten
Dreaming of the great day when
I'll be in a show

Broadway baby
Making rounds all afternoon
Eating at a greasy spoon
To save on my dough

At
My tiny flat
There's just my cat
A bed and a chair
Still
I'll stick it 'til
I'm on a bill
All over Times Square

I can get to strut my stuff
Working for a nice man
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weismann
In a great big
Broadway show!
