Intro Chorus Spoken
In the middle of a million souls what a place to go
To hide their troubles and put on a show
Verse
Standing at the Boardwalk staring at the lights
Which one is brightest calling me tonight?
Chorus
In the middle of a million souls what a place to go
To hide their troubles and put on a show
Walking on the 4th Street Promenade
Verse
See the people standing all looking around
Watch the Vendors dealing their wares on the ground
With the Jugglers, juggling feel the magic in the air
Looks like a circus with the people that are there
Repeat Chorus
Verse
The People are gathering to listen to the sound
The Guitar cases open pick-in on the ground
Planting their seeds in the people they meet
Rich folks dining the Poor want to eat
Chorus 2
In the middle of a million souls what a place to go
Ten Thousand people making the show
Forgotten troubles like no one knows
Strolling down the 4th Street Promenade
Tag
In the middle of a million souls what a place to go
Ten Thousand people making the show
