Из альбома: The Very Best Of Louis Armstrong
(J. Kander / Bob Thiele)
What good is sittin' alone in your room
Come hear the music play, yes
Life is a cabaret old chum
Come to the cabaret
Put down that knittin', the book and the broom
Time for a holiday, yes
Life is a cabaret old chum
So come to the cabaret
Come taste the wine, come hear that band
Yes, it's time for celebratin'
Right this way, your table's waitin'
No use permittin' a prophet of doom
Wipe every smile away, yes
Life is a cabaret old chum
So come to the cabaret, yes
------ instrumental break ------
Yes, life is a cabaret old chum
Only a cabaret old chum
So come to the cabaret
