Lyrics:
A showman's life is a smokey bar
And the fevered chase of a tiny star
It's a hotel room and a lonely wife
From what I've seen of a showman's life
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 honky 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, until the dream comes true
And a phony smile in a colored light
Is all there is to a showman's life
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 honky tonker's heart
Well I might have known it
But nobody told me about this part
And 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 honky tonker's heart
Well I might have known it
But nobody told me about this part
Well I might have known it
Nobody told me about this part

Acoustic Larry hits the soul harder.

[@jasoncarter8749]

No band one man guitar is most of the best songs I've ever heard and grew up on

[@seanlewis8817]

To be the man you gotta beat the man! Go Larry!

[@thomasweigert731]

I love Larry's music, but his acoustic versions are something else! No words!

[@mwmjr83181]

Larry does the best covers on the songs that he covers. This was one of my favorite Gary Allan songs

[@dleeliv]

George Strait has a version of this song, this version is close to as good (nobody does country as good as the king)

[@RandyLahey87]

So much talent. I could listen to him all day. He just gets better and better

[@TheBountifulSeaLily]

He's an Amazing Singer and Songwriter.❤

[@Sven_E07]

Wow, what a masterpiece of this little known Jesse Winchester classic. I've listened to it at least 25 times in the last two days. You keep country alive - thanks!!! We need originals. I grew up with American country music and it will always be my core genre. Greetings from Germany.

[@joeblough261]

Check out the Nashville Cast version feat..Chris Carmack. Inspired by Buddy Miller's version as he was the musical director of the show. It's my favorite version, but they're all good and this is awesome

[@Sven_E07]

@joeblough261 Thanks for this recommendation. I know that version and like it very much, it's great. That scene in the show is how I came to know about the song.

[@joeblough261]

@Sven_E07 You bet, and me too, heard it 1st on Nashville. What's super cool is just recently I connected online with a guy who lives 20 mins from me...he loves Nashville as much as I do, and we got together last week for the 1st time to play Nashville music covers. He's a guitar and banjoer, I'm guitar and vocals. This was the 1st song we did, and he plays the Nashville style intro PERFECTLY. Sounds so freaking beautiful on his Taylor guitar plugged in with a bit of chorus.

[@gordonjarvis]

Ah magic man!!

[@KeithAiken-f4b]

He gets better and better!

[@paulwarren2866]

Can't wait to see Larry in London next month. He's such a talent.

[@stevenhashek8892]

Song written by Jesse Winchester.

[@stormyweather9054]

Correct like 30 years ago . But most folks think George Strait or Gary Allen even Willie wrote it .

[@yourguitarriffs5977]

Sounds like another version of Luke Combs The Part

[@Yohann333]

God bless you Larry!
