Broadway Melody 1929

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 04 Sep 2002

There may be streets that have their sorrow,
A tear today, a smile tomorrow;
but there's a street that lives in glory,
it always tells the same old story.

Don't bring a frown to old Broadway,
you've got to clown on Broadway.
Your troubles there are out of style,
for Broadway always wears a smile.
A million lights, they flicker there,
a million hearts beat quicker there.
No skies of grey on the great White Way,
that the Broadway Melody.

Don't bring a frown to old Broadway,
you've got to clown on Broadway.
Your troubles there are out of style,
for Broadway always wears a smile.
A million lights, they flicker there,
a million hearts beat quicker there.
No skies of grey on the great White Way,
that the Broadway Melody.

They built that street for smiling faces;
of glum folk there you'll find no traces;
for down that road of life and chatter,
It's only happy people matter.

Don't bring a frown to old Broadway,
you've got to clown on Broadway.
Your troubles there are out of style,
for Broadway always wears a smile.
A million lights, they flicker there,
a million hearts beat quicker there.
No skies of grey on the great White Way,
that the Broadway Melody.

Don't bring a frown to old Broadway,
you've got to clown on Broadway.
Your troubles there are out of style,
for Broadway always wears a smile.
A million lights, they flicker there,
a million hearts beat quicker there.
No skies of grey on the great White Way,
that the Broadway Melody.
