Connie Francis Does Ol' Broadway Ever Sleep
(Eddie Curtis)
Does ol' Broadway ever sleep, does ol' Broadway ever sleep
Now I have seen ol' Broadway blink its eyes
But I've never seen it slumber deep
I've heard ol' Broadway just laugh out loud
And I've heard it softly weep
But no one answers when I ask, does ol' Broadway ever sleep?
They did the Charleston a long time ago
And ol' Broadway loved it so
Then the Lindy came upon the scene
And Broadway hollered, hey, go man, go.
Now ol' Broadway just do the twist
From the peppermint crowds to high society
But when Broadway's dancin' merrily
One thought one thought keeps hauntin' me.
Does ol' Broadway ever sleep, does ol' Broadway ever sleep
Now I have seen ol' Broadway blink its eyes
But I've never seen it slumber deep
I've heard ol' Broadway just laugh out loud
And I've heard it softly weep
But no one answers when I ask, does ol' Broadway ever sleep?
Or does it lie awake just countin' sheep
Oh, does ol' Broadway ever sleep
Goodnight folks I'm goin' to bed...
