歌曲名 A Showman's Life

歌手名 Jesse 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 the wine and the money and

The good times

No mention of all the wear and tear

On an old honky 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

Till the dream comes true

And a phony smile in a colored light

Is all there is to a showman's life

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 honky 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

Well I might have known it

But nobody told me about this part
