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 Batt'ry Park to Washington Heights.
Some day maybe,
All my dreams will be repaid.
I can get to strut my stuff,
Working for a nice man
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weissman
In a big-time Broadway show!
Heck, I'd even play the maid
To be in a show.
Say, Mister producer,
Some girls get the breaks.
Just give me my cue, sir.
I've got what it takes.
Say, Mister Producer,
I'm talkin' 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 the five and ten,
Dreaming of the great day
When I'll be in a show.
Broadway Baby,
Making rounds all afternoon,
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.
Some day maybe,
If I stick it long enough,
I can get to strut my stuff,
Work-ing for a nice man
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weissman
In a big-time
Broadway show!

I'm just a Broadway baby
walking on my tired feet
pounding 42nd street
to be in a show
Broadway baby
learning how to sing and dance
waitin' 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 battery park
to Washington heights
Some day maybe
all my dreams will be repaid
heck I'd even play the maid
to be in a show
Hey, Mr. producer
I'm talkin to you sir
I don't need a lot
Only what I've got
so I could work for
a nice man like you sir
on a big time Broadway
Show!

She’s preformed this soooooo many times, but this is definitely the best one in my opinion as far as showcasing her voice and personally EQUALLY. She’s not too much in this performance like some of her earlier ones.
PLUS she looks amazing per the usual

facts nothing but facts! 🙇

The best Broadway Baby I know. She's so incredibly talented.
harlemhomme
YesA-Ma-YES!

I attended 4 of her concerts last year, and met her 4 times. She is the sweetest, kindest person you'd ever want to meet! Even though she is the Queen of Broadway, she doesn't act like a primadonna. As for sounding that good, she still takes voice lessons. If you have a good vocal coach, good technique, and take care of yourself, which she does, you can sound good until the day you die.

Bernadette Peters never fails to amaze. I love her style.
Ro Cee
OH MY GAWD! SHE gives me chills since 1979
SambaScramble
I'm sure I'm not amused by her choreography, it has to be something else. I always find myself smiling to the max watching her performance. She's so much fun to watch! xD
jonesdidid
This may be my favorite song she does! She's just got it down to a science. Looove her! :)

This is as good as it gets! Bernadette is one of the all time greats!
