Berlin Irving Annie Get Your Gun Sheet Music There's No Business Like Show Business [1] The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk Are secretly unhappy men because The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk Get paid for what they do but no applause They'd gladly bid their dreary jobs good-bye For anything theatrical and why There's no business like show business Like no business I know Ev'rything about it is appealing Ev'rything the traffic will allow Nowhere could you get that happy feeling When you are stealing that extra bow There's no people like show people They smile when they are low Even with a turkey that you know will fold You may be stranded out in the cold Still you wouldn't change for a sack of gold Let's go on with the show [2] The costumes, the scen'ry, the make-up, the props The audience that lifts you when you're down The headaches, the heartaches, the backaches, the flops The sheriff who escorts you out of town The opening when your heart beats like a drum The closing when the customers won't come There's no business like show business Like no business I know You get word before the show has started That your favorite uncle died at dawn Top of that, your ma and pa have parted You're broken-hearted, but you go on There's no people like show people They don't run out of dough Yesterday they told you you would not go far That night you open and there you are Next day on your dressing room they've hung a star Let's go on with the show [3] The cowboys, the tumblers, the wrestlers, the clowns The roustabouts who move the show at dawn The music, the spotlight, the people, the towns Your baggage with the labels pasted on The sawdust and the horses and the smell The towel you've taken from the last hotel There's no business like show business If you tell me it's so Trav'ling thro' the country will be thrilling Standing out in front on opening nights Smiling as you watch the benches filling And your billing out there in lights There's no people like show people They don't run out of dough Angels come from ev'rywhere with lots of jack And when you lose it, there's no attack Where could you get money that you don't give back Let's go on with the show |
