MEN'S CHORUS:

The costumes, the scenery, the makeup, the props

The audience that lifts you when you're down

WOMEN'S CHORUS:

The headaches, the heartaches, the backaches, the flops

The sheriff who escorts you out of town

MEN'S CHORUS:

The opening when your heart beats like a drum

WOMEN'S CHORUS:

The closing when the customers won't come

ALLS:

There's no business like show business

Like no business I know

MEN'S CHORUS:

Everything about it is appealing

WOMEN'S CHORUS:

Everything the traffic will allow

MEN'S CHORUS:

No where could you have that happy feeling

ALLL:

When you aren't stealing that extra bow

There's no people like show people

They smile when they are low

MEN'S CHORUS:

Yesterday they told you you would not go far

WOMEN'S CHORUS:

That night you opened and there you are

MEN'S CHORUS:

Next day on your dressing room they've hung a star

ALL:

Let's go on with the show

MEN'S CHORUS:

The cowboys, the wrestlers, the tumblers, the clowns

The roustabouts that move the show at dawn

WOMEN'S CHORUS:

The music, the spotlights, the people, the towns

Your baggage with the labels pasted on

MEN'S CHORUS:

The sawdust and the horses and the smell

WOMEN'S CHORUS:

The towel you've taken from the last hotel

ALL:

There's no business like show business

If you tell me it's so

Travelling through the country is so thrilling

Standing out in front on opening nights

Smiling as you watch the benches filling

And see your billing up there in lights

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 trade it for a sack o' gold

Let's go on with the show

Let's go on with the show!

The show!

The show!
