There's no bus'ness like love bus'ness

There's no bus'ness i know

One day ya wanna hold on forever

The next you wanna let it go



There's nothin' shakin' ll ke love makin'

There's nothin'as long as it lasts

One day can be there forever

The next is a thing of the past

Now listen to this



I fell in love with a sweet little girl once

She was ev'rything a woman should be

Did ev'rything to find if she was wrong

But it seemed she loved only me

She gave me some pretty good things

Things i couldn't get from my own dear mother

I had to go 'way for just a few days

When i returned she'd gone off with my brother

I was drivin' and i didn't see it coming, no



There's no bus'ness like love bus'ness

There's no bus'ness i know

One day ya wanna hold on forever

The next you wanna let it go



Once i knew this rich man

He treated hiswoman like a queen

He gave the woman ev'rything she needed

He kept her lookin'so fine and clean

He had so much faith in her

His love he never had to check out

He had to go see a man about a dog one day

And when he got back he found she'd shimmied out

I tried to tell you boy, you wouldn't listen to me



There's no bus'ness like love bus'ness

There's no bus'ness i know

One day ya wanna hold on forever

The next you wanna let it go



Listen! there ain't nothin' shakin' like love makin'

There ain't nothin' as long as it lasts

One day you wanna hold on forever

The next is a thing of the past



La, da, da, da, da, da, ooh, whoo

La, da, da, da, da, da, ooh, whoo, whoo, whoo

La, da, da, da, da, da, ooh, whoo



There's no bus'ness like love bus'ness

There's no bus'ness i know

One day ya wanna hold on forever

The next you wanna let it go



Listen! there ain't nothin' shakin' like love makin'

There ain't nothin' as long as it lasts

One day you wanna hold on forever

The next is a thing of the past
