Gary Allan A Showman's Life Lyrics

A showman's life is a smoky bar
And the fevered chase of a tiny star
It's a hotel room and a lonely wife
From what I've seen a showman's life

CHORUS: Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
And the money and the good times
There's no mention of all the wear and tear on an old honkey 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

REPEAT CHORUS TWICE

Well, I might have known it, but nobody told me about this part
