Chorus:

There's no business like show business,
Like no business I know.
Everything about it is appealing,
Everything that 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 it for a sack of gold.
Let's go on with the show!
