Song language: English
I Beg Your Pardon, Dear Old Broadway |
| Broadway, Broadway, I’ve a message from a friend across the foam |
| From someone who loves you dearly |
| Tho’he’s miles away from home |
| Kind applause is not his cause |
| Because I know he loves you true |
| I’ll feel better when I read his letter |
| Here’s the words he wrote to you: |
| I beg your pardon, dear old Broadway |
| For list’ning to a foreign song |
| I thought I’d find a street with which you could compete |
| I only found that I was wrong |
| My hat’s aloft to you, old Broadway |
| You’re in a class alone today |
| And if I thought for a minute that the others were in it Won’t you pardon me, Broadway? |
| Broadway, I too said goodbye to all the sights across the sea |
| Joy! |
| once more for soon I saw |
| The Statue of Old Liberty! |
| Hand in air, she greets you there |
| To drive away all care and pain |
| Joy smiles at you, while the great big statue |
| Seems to say, «Never again!» |
