A Showman's Life Songtext
A showman's life is a smokey bar
And the fevered chase of a tiny star
It's a hotel room and a lonely wife
From what I've seen of a showman's life
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
Woah, the money and the good time
No mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkey-tonker's heart
And the fevered chase of a tiny star
It's a hotel room and a lonely wife
From what I've seen of a showman's life
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
Woah, the money and the good time
No mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkey-tonker's heart
Well, I might have known it
Nobody told me about this part
A boy will dream as children do
Of a great white way 'til the dream comes true
A phoney smile in a colored light
There's all it is to a showman's life
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
Oh, the money and the good times
No mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkey-tonker's heart
Well, I might have known it
Nobody told me about this part
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
Oh, the money and the good time No mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkey-tonker's heart
Well, I might have known it
Oh, nobody told me about this part
Well, I might have known it
Nobody told me about this part
Nobody told me about this part
A boy will dream as children do
Of a great white way 'til the dream comes true
A phoney smile in a colored light
There's all it is to a showman's life
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
Oh, the money and the good times
No mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkey-tonker's heart
Well, I might have known it
Nobody told me about this part
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
Oh, the money and the good time No mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkey-tonker's heart
Well, I might have known it
Oh, nobody told me about this part
Well, I might have known it
Nobody told me about this part
