Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway

We're just good friends, I said
Aah-ah-ah
Hurrying through the crowd
And smiling at the flash lights
Found the way out, at last
Aah-ah-ah
Standing in the rain, staring at the streetlights

Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway yeah, yeah
Caught in the game
Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway

Aah...
Starting as a poor boy
When he got me for a friend
I met him in down the office
When he asked me for drink
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

He said:
"I'm gonna be a big star"
And the way he put it clear
He just listened to the grapevine
And toast on my career
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway, yeah yeah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Aah...

Tum-tu-tu-tum, I thought
Aah-ah-ah
You just played you part and read your lines so smart
We're just good friends, I said
Aah-ah-ah
Please leave me alone
I once spoiled a party

Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway yeah, yeah
Caught in the game
Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway

Aah...
He just picked a movie and he knew he did it well
He reached the frontpage headline
His name began to sell
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

He told me he loved me
What difference does it make
I just listened to the grapevine
And I knew his love was fake
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway yeah, yeah
Caught in the game
Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway
Aah... yeah, yeah

Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway yeah, yeah
Caught in the game
Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway
Aah... yeah, yeah

Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway yeah, yeah
Caught in the game
Everybody was shakin' hands on Broadway
Aah... yeah, yeah...
