[Verse]
When you hear your feet
Echo in the street
When it's late and it's raining
And you're thinking of the sleep you're gonna lose
When you hang your hat
In an empty flat
And you're feeling so lonely
Then you're getting those Broadway Blues
[Chorus]
When your heart is aching for the trees
When you long to hear those buzzin' bees
And when you want to eat a cake
Just like your mammy used to bake
And you find you've got a wish
To hook an unsuspecting fish
And when your cloud has lost its silver line
And the colors in your rainbow cease to shine
Pin your farewell on your door
Catch a train and don't care whеre it's leaving for
You've got thosе Broadway Blues
[Bridge ("Patter")]
Get up in the morning, your breakfast at eight
Hurry to the office, you're a little bit late
Work all day, eat about seven
Go to a show and then you're home at eleven
Go into bed, sleep and then
The whole darn thing starts over again
Ain't that monotonous
Think what you choose
A-one year up and down Broadway
Will give anybody the blues
[Chorus]
And when your cloud has lost its silver line
And the colors in your rainbow cease to shine
Pin your farewell on your door
Catch a train and don't care where it's leaving for
You've got those Broadway Blues
Broadway Blues was written by Carey Morgan & Arthur Swanstrom.
