And the fevered chase of a tiny star
It’s a hotel room and a lonely wife
From what I’ve seen of a showman’s life
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls
And the wine and the money and the good times
There’s no mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honky tonker’s heart

A boy will dream as children do
Of a great white way, until the dream comes true
And a phony smile in a colored light
Is all there is to a showman’s life
Nobody told me about this part

In 1999, Decca closed its doors. However, Allan's contract was picked up by MCA-Nashville, which released his [Smoke Rings in the Dark] album later that year. The album combined most of what Allan did best, dusty honky tonk and country ballads.
