“Santa Fe” is a ballad sung by Jack Kelly in which he speaks on his dream of leaving New York and his life as a newsboy for Santa Fe.
[JACK]
So that's what they call a family
Mother, daughter, father, son
Guess that everythin' you heard about is true
So you ain't got any family
Well who said you needed one?
Ain't you glad nobody's waiting up for you?
When I dream, on my own
I'm alone but I ain't lonely
For a dreamer, night's the only time of day
When the city's finally sleepin'
And my thoughts begin to stray
And I'm on the train that's bound for Santa Fe
And I'm free, like the wind
Like I'm gonna live forever
It's a feelin' time can never take away!
All I need's a few more dollars
And I'm outta here to stay
Dreams comes true, yes they do
In Santa Fe
Where does it say that you gotta live and die here?
Where does it say a guy can't catch a break?
Why should you only take what you're given?
Why should you spend your whole life livin'
Trapped where they ain't no future, even at seventeen
Breakin' your back for someone else's sake?
If the life don't seem to suit ya, how 'bout a change of scene?
Far from the lousy headlines and the deadlines in between
Santa Fe, are you there?
Do you swear you won't forget me?
If I found you, would you let me come and stay?
I ain't getting any younger
And before my dyin' day
I want space, not just air
Let them laugh in my face, I don't care
Save a place
I'll be there
So that's what they call a family
Ain't you glad you ain't that way?
Ain't you glad you got a dream called
Santa Fe?
