Lyrics
0:19I stood on faith and the corner of ambition
0:28I came here to sink or swim
0:32And to show them all that they were wrong
0:40And though I never thought I'd make it this far
0:45So the curtains are down for the moment I'm someone
0:55There were those in the wings who waited
0:59Who came this way now they're gone
1:07But there's always someone at home
1:10Who never forgets who you are
1:15And when I'm down and I'm growing old
1:20I won't be along no railroad track
1:24I won't be bound to a life out in the cold
1:33It's been a steady pace to keep my steps
1:38Between these cracks on Broadway
1:44And my stride in rhythm
1:48To the beat of home sweet home
2:30When I'm down and I'm growing old
2:34I won't be along no railroad track
2:38I won't be bound to a life out in the cold
2:47It's been a steady pace to keep my steps
2:52Between these cracks on Broadway
2:58And my stride in rhythm
3:02To the beat of home sweet home
3:08Can't go on I'm on the top of my better years
3:14I'm going home it's too lonesome
3:16On the bottom rung here
3:22It's been a steady pace to keep my steps
3:26Between these cracks on Broadway
3:33And my stride in rhythm
3:37To the beat of home sweet home
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 they're gone But there's always someone at home Who never forgets who you are And 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
