And everyone in Garden City Kansas they all agreed that she’d go very far. [Pre-Chorus 1] Dancing lessons every morning singing lessons in the afternoon and Broadway was just around the corner. [Chorus] Now Mary Lou has finally made it to Broadway but she’s never gonna see her name in lines. And there ain’t no-one can save her from the faith that Broadway gave her: taking money for her favours every [INTERLUDE] night. [Interlude] | | / | * | | [Verse 2] Mary Lou left Garden City Kansas all set to take her chances on her own. She’d been the queena and all the local dancers had look it all the talentshows she won. [Pre-Chorus 2] But every road she took lead down a dead-end street and she had to find some other way to make ends meet. [Chorus] Now Mary Lou has finally made it to Broadway but she’s never gonna see her name in lines. And there ain’t no-one can save her from the faith that Broadway gave her: taking money for her favours every night. [Bridge] She was twenty-one and such a lovely lady the morning that she stepped down from the train. Now she’s pushing thirtyfive and got a baby and she spends her evenings walking in the rain. [Verse 3] And she can’t go back to Garden City Kansas ’cause she’s not the little girl she used to be. And her mother is gone from Garden City Kansas she said the weather and her health did not agree. [Pre-Chorus 3] So every lonely evening she’ll kiss her little girl goodnight and walk on to her stage under the cornerlight. [End-Chorus] Now Mary Lou has finally made it to Broadway but she’s never gonna see her name in lines. And there ain’t no-one can save her from the faith that Broadway gave her taking money for her favours every [OUTRO] night. [Outro 1] | | / | | / | [Outro 2] (Slowing On Cue) | | / | / | * ||

Cette chanson raconte l'histoire de Mary Lou, une jeune femme prometteuse de Kansas, déterminée à réaliser son rêve d'atteindre Broadway. Elle grandit avec l'espoir de devenir célèbre, soutenue par sa mère et admirée par sa communauté. Cependant, la réalité se révèle bien plus difficile. Malgré son arrivée tant attendue à Broadway, elle se retrouve piégée dans un monde impitoyable, où elle ne voit jamais son nom en haut de l'affiche et doit faire des compromis pour survivre. Le contexte de son parcours met en lumière le contraste entre les rêves de gloire et les dures réalités de la vie. Alors qu'elle quitte sa ville natale pleine d'espoir, elle découvre que le chemin vers le succès n'est pas semé que de roses et qu'il est souvent parsemé de défis personnels et de désillusions. C'est une réflexion sur les sacrifices que l'on fait pour ses rêves et les conséquences qui peuvent en découler.
