Michael Stanley Band - Let's Get the Show on the Road Lyrics

Let's get the show on the road, baby
At the curtain, take a bow
New haven, just a rendezvous to take you to
A lover who was then, but never now

Susan played the lady
Who called the players songs
Just a figurine of stagehand reveries
Guess up and coming can't be that wrong

Let's get the show on the road, baby
And set the spotlights on the stage
Ah, my, it seems I've heard these words before
Did you forget to turn the page?

And remember what they told you
About how the show goes on
How can you come back, if you've never gone away?
How can you sing how, can you sing without a song?

And today's for sale and it's all you can afford
By your own admission
You see the whole thing's got you bored
The Lord uses the good ones, the bad ones use the Lord

Let's get the show on the road, baby
Come and take a look around
You got one thing to remember when you're climbing to the top
You'd better know the way back down

I can't believe you'd really stumble
But then, I always knew you'd fall
Well, it seems so easy, to say, "I knew you when"
I'd rather it was not at all

And today's for sale and it's all you can afford
By your own admission
You see the whole thing's got you bored
The Lord uses the good ones, the bad ones use the Lord
