Lyrics

Like to thank all you people for showing up tonight Sorry about the weather Let's have a big hand for my long time accompianist Manfred Gooseberry Hey Goose Take a bow, relax Be comfortable Have a cocktail on the Poo Poo Lounge And let us entertain you I'd like to sing you a Broadway song I hope that you'll all sing along A little dancing and some sentiment to put your mind at ease I'd like to play you something low and sexy look at our dancers they're so young and pretty, hi Olga And when we start to groove you can hear the saxophones blow Ah, show business is just a wonderful thing All I want is to get down on my knees and sing for you And let the saxophones blow blow baby blow I'd like to sing you a Broadway song I hope that you'll all sing along A little dancing and some sentiment to put your mind at ease I wanna bring a tear to your eye, oh good old Poe don't he make you cry Ain't it great the way he writes about the mysteries of life Ah, show business is just a wonderful thing All I want is to get down on my knees and sing for you And let the saxophones blow Blow baby blow Ah, show business is just a wonderful thing All I want is to get down on my knees and sing for you And let the saxophones blow blow baby blow baby blow baby blow Go Goose go
