Just back from taking the kids to see Oklahoma. It was great, we were in the shade til the sun went down anyway and there was a breeze, so it turned out very nice. There was a dinner, Indian dancing, pony rides and a western musical revue beforehand. Fun evening! I've always had a soft spot for this musical as I'm a lifelong Oklahoman. I must say we have a great state song on account of it being a hit Broadway tune, lol. Tonight however, I'll leave you with my favorite song from the show...


Will:
You'll have to be a little more standoffish
When fellers offer you a buggy ride.

Annie:
I'll give a imitation of a crawfish
And dig myself a hole where I can hide.

Will:
I heared how you was kickin' up some capers
When I was off in Kansas City, Mo.
I heard some things you couldn't print in papers
From fellers who been talkin' like they know!

Annie:
I only did the kind of things I orta, sorta,
To you I was as faithful as can be, fer me.
Them stories 'bout the way I lost my bloomers - Rumors!
A lot of tempest in a pot o' tea!

Will:
The whole thing don't sound very good to me.

Annie:
Well, y'see.

Will:
I go and sow my last wild oat!
I cut out all shenanigans.
I save my money, don't gamble or drink
In the back room down at Flannigans!
I give up lotsa other things
A gentleman never mentions,
But before I give up anymore,
I wanta know your intentions!

With me it's all or nuthin'.
Is it all or nuthin' with you?
It cain't be "in between"
It cain't be "now and then"
No half and half romance will do!

I'm a one woman man, Home lovin' type,
All complete with slippers and pipe.
Take me like I am, or leave me be!
If you cain't give me all, give me nuthin'
And nuthin's what you'll git from me!

Annie:
Not even sump'n?

Will:
Nuthin's what you'll git from me!

Annie:
It cain't be "in between"

Will:
Hmm Hmm!

Annie:
It cain't be "now and then"

Will:
No half and half romance will do!

Annie:
Would you build me a house
All painted white
Cute and clean and purty and bright

Will:
Big enough fer two but not fer three!

Annie:
S'posin' that we should have a third one?

Will:
He better look a lot like me!

Annie:
The spittin' image!

Will:
He better look a lot like me!

Annie:
With you it's all or nuthin'.
All fer you and nuthin' fer me!
But if a wife is wise, she's gotta realize
That men like you are wild and free.
So I ain't gonna fuss, ain't gonna frown,
Have your fun, go out on the town,
Stay up late and don't come home till three.
And go right off to sleep if you're sleepy,
There's no use waitin' up fer me!

Will:
Oh, Ado Annie!

Annie:
No use waitin' up fer me!

Will:
Come back and kiss me!

I'm just a girl who cain't say no. Kissin's my favorite food!
With or without the mistletoe I'm in a holiday mood.

That's my second favorite song. I always wondered why Laurey was so popular. Ado Annie was a lot more fun.

Ado Annie was always my favorite character. I wanted to play that part SO bad in High School.
