Testo Which Way Be Broadway - Lori Carson
Testo della canzone Which Way Be Broadway (Lori Carson), tratta dall'album Shelter
Minnesota strips her of it all
Then again it's not that far to fall
Black and blue heart avenue prepared the girl
New York City promised everything
She can dance and she could learn to sing
And on the street with frozen feet she does just that
For every John twenty bucks who tips his hat
And she says
Which way be Broadway?
Please hear my voice, please see my face
Which way be Broadway?
I've come so far
Which way be Broadway?
Please hear my voice, please see my face
Which way be Broadway?
I've come so far
She don't call home even if she could
The old man never was much good
Talking on the telephone his tongue got tied
And maybe he would cry or say
"Come home baby
Kitchen ain't cook breakfast on its own"
She can almost see the way he'd speak the words
Not saying much but touching every place that hurts
Hey John you know when I was nine years old
I did a mean soft shoe
The trick in keeping time was repeating a rhyme
I used to know quite a few
I was a star in my town
They burned the dirt roads up to see me dance
I'm not afraid of the dark
I stand in shadows, they hide me
I pull the shade down closed inside me
Fluorescent green and bar to bar stool
Down the whiskey one to stay cool
TV in the corner's on but has no sound
Walk outside and through the night air
Acting like she really couldn't care less
And never more does night time on the street
Black net nylon footstep on the sugar beet
Well she says
Which way be Broadway?
Please hear my voice, please see my face
Which way be Broadway?
I've come so far
Which way be Broadway?
Please hear my voice, please see my face
Which way be Broadway?
I've come so far
To find this place
