Lyrics

Intro

Ba-da-ba-da

Ba-da-ba-dee

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

I tipped the cabbie twice his fare

Stepped out where the marquee burned

A fella with a feathered hat

Sold me a rose I didn't earn

Pre-Chorus

The doorman knew my name somehow

Though we never met before

The band inside was swinging loud

And they swung me through the door

Chorus

Oh what a town

Oh what a night

Every window burning bright

Oh what a town

Oh what a night

Broadway never dims her light

Verse 2

A trumpet player winked at me

Between the second and the third

I danced with someone's wife

And never said a single word

Pre-Chorus

The waiter poured a ruby round

Said darling have a sip

My collar lost its starch somehow

My jacket lost its grip

Chorus

Oh what a town

Oh what a night

Every window burning bright

Oh what a town

Oh what a night

Broadway never dims her light

Bridge

Then the moon got shy

And the crowd got thin

And the last cab rolled away

And the last cab rolled away

Chorus

Oh what a town

Oh what a night

Every window burning bright

Oh what a town

Oh what a night

Broadway never dims her light

Outro

Ba-da-ba-da

Ba-da-ba-dee

Mm-hmm
