THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH (Sonny & Cher) I just stood there watching you As you took off my ring Then you gently put it in my hand I guess I knew there’s someone else You rather spend your life with And you hoped that I would understand So you put the ring in your pocket I slowly turned to walk out the door You were so much stronger Than you’ve ever been before CHORUS: You put on the greatest show on earth It was the greatest show on earth But then I stopped dead in my tracks And begged you to take me back The next time that I saw you You were waiting for a bus I just happened to be passing by When I said hello and every little thing You said you’d be married and you lied I guess you know that I’ve been keeping busy I’ve been going out most every night You were very happy That my future looked so bright Chorus Yesterday I called to see If we could meet somewhere I’ve been thinking about you for some time But soon as I walked in that place Where we used to go You knew just what I had on my mind You thought it could be just like old times Honey it could never be the same I got up from the table walked away While you remained Chorus x 2
