A Showman’s Life Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A showman's life is a smoky 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

[Chorus]
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the 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

[Verse 2]
A boy will dream as children do
Of a great white way, 'til the dream comes true
And a phony smile in a colored light
Is all it is to a showman's life

[Chorus]
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the 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

[Chorus]
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the 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
I might have known it
But nobody told me about this part
