Broadway Baby

Stephen Sondheim

[HATTIE]
I'm 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
Waiting for that one big chance
To be in a show

Gee
I'd like to be
On some marquee
All twinkling lights
A spark
To pierce the dark
From Union Park
To Washington Heights!

Someday, maybe
All my dreams will be repaid
Hell, I'd even play the maid
To be in a show

Say, Mr. Producer
Some girls get the breaks
Just give me my cue, sir
I've got what it takes

Say, 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 thе great day when
I'll be in a show

Broadway baby
Making rounds all aftеrnoon
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 till
I'm on a bill
All over Times Square!

Someday, maybe
If I stick it long enough
I can get to strut my stuff
Working for a nice man
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weismann
In a big time
Broadway show!
