Back in Business

[SINGER & ENSEMBLE]
Yesterday it seemed the world was about to end
Didn't it?
Looked as though it wouldn't last out the year
Yesterday disaster waited around the bend—
Well, my friend
Spring is here

Back in business
And ain't it grand?
Let the good times roll!
Yesterday things were out of hand
Now they're under control

Bye bye, blues
So long, adversity
Happiness, hello!
Keep the status quo
Permanently so

Back again like a boomerang
Same old stand
Same old gang
Back in business with a bang!
Let the good times roll!

Yesterday it seemed we never would smile again (Ooh)
Didn't it?
Didn't matter what we ventured, or how (Ah)
Looked as though the fun was over till who knew when (Ooh)
That was then (Yes!)
This is now

Back in business
And ain't it grand? (Yeah!)
Let the good times roll! (Good times roll, baby)
Yesterday things were out of hand
Now they're under control

Back to normal (Ah)
Back to usual
Let the fun resume (Ooh, we're starting up again)
No more doom and gloom (Doom and gloom)
No more bust, just boom! (Ah, boom)

Back in business, and overnight (Ah, overnight)
In demand— (In demand)
Well, all right! (All right!)

[SINGER & ENSEMBLE]
Business is just dynamite!
Let the good times roll!

Same old play with the same old cast
Like the past
But at last
Back in business and with a blast!
Let the good times—
Let the good times—
Let the good times roll!
Yeah!
