Im the Only Star That Twinkles on Broadway Lyrics

When I was an amateur

In Tennessee

All my friends they just went crazy

Over me

When they saw me act

They always used to say

Mabe' you outta' be down on Broadway

Frowmin heard about me

But I turned him down

God did David Buford

Then I called the town

Hammer(??) seen next to me

Then stubborn me one night

Now I am a Broadway star alright

I'm the only star that twinkle
on broadway
All the other stars
Are only shines they say
I'm a public center access
I'm a lady and an actress
Why I'm making Pesky Carter's
Hair turn gray
I remember when Velasco saw me play
He threw up his hands
And fainted dead away
Richard Mansfield put out his reasons
Cause' I sign with him
Next season
I'm the only star that twinkle
on broadway

Once when playing Juliet
I hoped to die
All the audience began to
weep and sigh
Someone shouted
this is more than I can stand
Then another yelled
Strike up the van.
Burn hop counted extra pop(??)
The way I do
That's what everybody says that sees me too
Alan Dale remarks
That if I got what I deserved
I'd be canned(??)
These other words preserved.

I'm the only star that twinkle
on broadway
All the other stars
Are only shines they say
I'm a public center access
I'm a lady and an actress
Why I'm making Pesky Carter's
Hair turn gray
I remember when Velasco saw me play
He threw up his hands
And fainted dead away
Richard Mansfield put out his reasons
Cause' I sign with him
Next season
I'm the only star that twinkle
on broadway
