A Showman's Life

歌詞

Winchester 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 wine And 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 But nobody told me about this part. A boy will dream as children do Of a great white way 'til the dream comes true And a phoney smile in a colored light And that's all it's to a showman's life. Nobody told me about this part They told me all about the pretty girls and wine And 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 But nobody told me about this part. Well, I might have known it But nobody told me about this part, mmm. Well, I might have known it But nobody told me about this part, yeah.
