(Sidney Cox and Suzanne Cox)
I stood on faith and the corner of ambition
I came here to sink or swim
And to show them all that they were wrong
And though I never thought I`d make it this far
So the curtains are down
For the moment I`m someone
There were those in the wings who waited, who came this way
Now there gone
But there`s always someone at home who never forgets who you are
When I`m down and I`m growing old
I won`t be along no railroad track
I won`t be bound to a life out in the cold
It`s been a steady pace to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home, sweet home
When I`m down and I`m growing old
I won`t be along no railroad track
I won`t be bound to a life out in the cold
It`s been a steady pace to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home, sweet home
Can`t go on, I`m on the top of my better years
I`m going home, it`s too lonesome on the bottom rung here
It`s been a steady pace to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway
And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home, sweet home
