Jerry, if he offers you a cigar, don't take it.

Oh, that's all right. Fay has the song, but I have the author.

Popularity better be a hit. Got a lot of dough sunk in that too.

Well, George, on behalf of your mother and myself, I...

What are you thinking about?

Because he's the whole darn country squeezed into one pair of pants.

Sit down. Right here. You sit down.

The salary's all right, but how have you got the nerve...

Just to ride the ponies.

...and visit places we've always wanted to see...

Well, I'll dance.

Uh, no, thanks.

I did it with the orchestra leader, and you do it this show.

- ...and is a great dancer. - He dances, eh?

- "I can lick any kid in town." - Heh. Good.

Another like Molly Malone

Heh. Well, there's no use beating around the bush.

The title showed how hard I was hoping.

What happened to that Boston offer you got?

- No. - Well, I tell you what you do.

Nine or 10 generations have grown up since then.

Well, uh, you know how I feel, don't you, Sam?

What did the papers say about the minstrel show?

The manager expects me to sing "The Wedding of the Lily and the Rose."

Pretty bad, George.

I hear now that Cohan's in town, Foy's gonna retire.

Well, the audience loved it, every minute of it.

There's no one can teach the same

Tries to sing? Why, he's a genius. He keeps his audience glued to the seats.

...you don't want to be too original either, do you?

It is a very bad play.

Yes, Jerry, give the devil his due.

Yes, Dr. Anderson.

I'm just a song-and-dance man. Everybody knows that.

You're not gonna let a beard and eyebrows frighten you, are you?

And we'll all be longing for you, Mary

Your father never sat around an orchard listening to his arteries hardening.

You're hesitating about having Fay Templeton in your show?

Still, it was lonely on the main stem.

- Hello, Mr. Foy. - How are you?

That's the last time I'll ever bring you a play.

Keep your eyes upon me And surprised you will be

My respects to Mrs. Dietz.

...and you've made me feel very young.
