The world of bright lights,
Of fortune and fame,
Where everybody struggles,
Tryin' to make themselves a name

Oh,
It's a world full of promises,
That sometimes don't ever come true
It's an old, old business,
Such a cold, cold business
It's like no business I know

There ain't no business like show, show business
It's like no, no business I know

There's a world of big dreams,
Of laughter and tears,
Where sometimes your fame,
Is just a? on a?

Oh, oh,
It's a world of promises,
That sometimes don't ever come true, now
And it's a rough, rough business
Such a tough, tough business
But it's my business, it's my life

Your business,
That's what I'm talkin' about
Show business,
That's what I'm talkin' about

Today you're nobody,
Tomorrow a star
The day after that,
Nobody knows who you are

There's an in-betweenin',
And behind-the-scene'in', and
They hardly leave you cent

And there's them good days,
And there's some bad, bady days,
Where you hardly pay your rent

Woah oh
But it's a world of music,
That somehow gets under your skin
Oh yeah,
There ain't no, no business,
Like show, show business
It's like no business,
That I know

There ain't no business,
Like show, show business
I tell there ain't no business like it, I know

Talkin' 'bout show business!
Talkin' 'bout

[Fade]
