Goodbye to Gloves

[Intro]
[Verse]
Goodbye to the counter
Goodbye to the floor
I won't be a flouncer
At Macy’s no more
I'm packing my case now
To join the big race now
[Pre-Chorus]
The director called my name
Said I'm in the theater game
Though my heart is beating fast
I am finally in the cast
[Chorus]
So turn on the lights
For those Broadway nights
I'm leaving the store
To hear the crowd roar
No more selling hats
Or chasing the flats
Just watch me shine
This moment is mine
[Verse]
My left shoe was black
My right shoe was blue
I heard a loud crack
When I danced for you
But I kept on tapping
And they started clapping
[Verse]
Pack the skirt, pack the lace
Put some powder on my face
Grab the train, catch the bus
Do not make a major fuss
Find the script, learn the line
Hope the weather will be fine
Buy the hose, mend the tear
Say a little quiet prayer
[Chorus]
So turn on the lights
For those Broadway nights
I'm leaving the store
To hear the crowd roar
No more selling hats
Or chasing the flats
Just watch me shine
This moment is mine
[Break]
Shuffle step, shuffle slide
Throw your worries right aside
Flap heel, ball change
Nothing is out of range
[Bridge]
Selling ribbons and the bows
Watching ladies buy their clothes
Now my name is in the sky
And I do not wonder why
Goodbye to the bargain bins
This is where my life begins
[Chorus]
So turn on the lights
For those Broadway nights
I'm leaving the store
To hear the crowd roar
No more selling hats
Or chasing the flats
Just watch me shine
This moment is mine
[Post-Chorus]
Yes, I will shine
The stage is mine
I'm on my way
To start today
And I am here to stay!
[Outro]
