Cab Calloway — Cabaret

[Spoken] A table for two, sir Right this way [Singing] Oh, what good is sitting alone in your room? Come hear the music play Life is a cabaret, my chum Come to the cabaret Put down the knitting, the book, and the broom Time for a holiday Life is a cabaret, old chum Life is a cabaret Come taste the wine Come hear the band Come blow that horn Start celebrating right this way Your table's waiting Nobody's permitting some prophet of doom To wipe every smile away Life is a cabaret, old chum Only a cabaret, old chum Come to the cabaret!
