Lyrics--Another Op'nin' Another Show & Regards to Broadway

Another Op'nin', Another Show

Another op'nin', another show,
In Philly, Boston or Baltimo'e
A chance for stage folds to say hello
Anoter op'nin' of another show

Another job that you hope, at last
Will make your future forget your past,
Another pain where the ulcers grow,
Another op'nin' of another show!

Four weeks, you rehearse and rehearse
Three weeks and it couldn't be worse
One week, will it ever be right?
Then out o' the hat, it's that big first night!

The overture is about to start.
You cross your fingers and hold your heart,
It's curtain time and away we go,
Another op'nin of another show. (1st ending)
Antoher op'nin, just another op'nin' of another show! (2nd ending)

Regards to Broadway!

How we love being up on the stage!
This is a dream we all share.
Oh, the feeling of spotlights shining!
Nothing we know begins to compare.
Can't you tell from the way that we sing,
It's not gonna take us too long?
We want to sing and dance on old Broadway,
Because we know that's where we belong.

Give my regards to Broadway; Remmember me to Herald Square.
Tell are the gang at Forty-Second Street that we will soon be there.
Whisper of how we're yearning to mingle with the old time throng.
Give my regards to old Broadway and tell them I'll be there 'ere long.

(Men) We're gonna pack our bags.
(Women) Can't wait another day.
(Combined) Next time you see us we'll be on Broadway!

(Singing combined songs)--and tell them we'll be there 'ere long.
We know that Broadway is the place where we belong!
