You learn to sing
You learn to play
Why don’t the businessmen
Ever learn to pay

 

That’s show business [Show business]
Show business [Show business]
Show business
That’s the way it goes

 

You play in halls
Play in bars
You’re climbin’ walls
Chasin’ stars

 

That’s show business [Show business]
Show business [Show business]
Show business
That’s the way it goes

 

You pay the man
You pay your dues
When it’s all gone, ooh
You sing the blues

 

Show business [Show business]
Show business [Show business]
Show business
That’s the way it goes

 

You wanna roll
You wanna rock
You find it hard
If your guitar’s in hock

 

That’s show business [Show business]
Show business [Show business]
Show business
That’s the way it goes

 

You’re smoking butts
They smoke cigars
You’re drown in debt
They drown in bars

 

That’s show business [Show business]
Show business [Show business]
Show business
That’s the way it goes

 

You pull a chick
Take her home
No use, man
You’re worn out to the bone

 

That’s show business [Show business]
Show business [Show business]
Show business
That’s the way it goes

 

That’s show business, show business
That’s show business, show business, show business
That’s the way it goes
Know what I mean
