Annie Get Your Gun Page #7

Synopsis: A story very loosely based on the love story of Annie Oakley and Frank Butler who meet at a shooting match. Fabulous music although the lead characters have virtually nothing to do with the actual historical figures. Annie joins Frank Butler in Col. Cody's Wild West Show. They tour the world performing before Royalty as well as the public at large.

and he's got the money.

We could combine our shows.

Annie, how would you like that?

If the shows could merge, me and Frank

would just have to work together...

...and then pretty soon, maybe

him and me could do some merging.

Yes. I'd better go find that messenger.

Now, you'll be with your friend, Frank.

Papa Bull, he'll make you

a wonderful son-in-law.

Maybe he's fallen in love with

one of those pink and white ladies...

...he's always talking about.

When you fall in love with Frank?

The first time I seen him.

He took to me right away.

He sung me a love song.

He just spit his heart right out at me.

"The girl that I marry will have to be

"As soft and as pink as a nursery

"The girl I'll call my own

"Will wear satins and laces

"And smell of cologne

"Her nails will be polished

"And in her hair

"She'll wear a gardenia

"He'll be there

"lnstead of flitting

"He'll be sitting

"Next to her

"And she'll purr like a kitten

"A doll he can carry

"The girl that he marries"

-I'm giving a weekend party at my estate.

-That's fine.

I'll be expecting you.

I'm sorry, but I don't think

I could leave my horses.

-Horses?

-Excuse me.

-Frank, don't forget our dance.

-I won't.

Isn't this our dance?

I'm sorry, but I promised this one

to Pawnee Bill.

-Excuse me.

-Will you excuse us?

-Frank, isn't it a lovely party?

-Yeah.

-It is a nice party, isn't it?

-If you like witches.

Why did you send

that faded Gibson girl to fetch me?

I'm out of my mind worrying

if Annie will even talk to me.

Well, I'll have to tell you. We're at the end

of our line. We owe everybody.

I don't get it.

We're making a fortune at the Garden.

Yeah. With the sheriff at the door

pulling it out again.

Why are you giving this party

for Buffalo Bill, then?

It's an investment.

I'm trying to promote a partnership.

-You mean, put the two shows together?

-Yes.

Hey, that's wonderful.

Then she'd have to talk to me.

I knew I could count on you.

Colonel William F. Cody.

-Where are you going?

-I got a surprise for her. I'll be right back.

Mr. Charles Davenport and their company.

Well, well. My old pal, Bill.

Pawnee Bill, my old pal. What a reunion!

You're a sight for sore eyes.

You know, you look wonderful?

-I look wonderful?

-Yes!

I look terrible. You look wonderful.

Doesn't he?

He never looked this good to me.

-Where's Annie?

-She's on her way.

I'm anxious to see her. Let's have a drink.

-Well, Bill, here's to you.

-No. Here's to you.

-No. To you.

-No, I insist. Here's to you.

Let's drink to me.

No. Later.

I read about your European tour.

-Biggest show they've seen over there.

-We got by.

-I hear you're doing fine at the Garden.

-Well, you know, making a living.

Let's have another drink.

The real stuff is in there.

Mighty nice of you

to give us this fine party.

Nothing at all. We are buddies, aren't we?

As a matter of fact,

we cut off our European tour...

...so Annie could be with Frank.

Is that so?

I wonder how we could manage that?

I've been wondering the same thing.

Let me propose a toast.

To the two greatest showmen in America.

Pawnee Bill and Buffalo Bill.

-What a combination.

-Yes.

We could merge the shows and then

Annie and Frank could be together.

Why didn't I think of that?

This calls for a real celebration.

Let me fill them up again for you.

-Darling--

-Beat it.

There we are.

Here's to the new

Buffalo Bill-Pawnee Bill Wild West Show.

Hold on. No, sir. Here's to the new

Pawnee Bill-Buffalo Bill Wild West Show.

No, you come first.

I'll bet they're going to serve dove

for dinner.

This is a night I will always remember.

Me too, B.B.

Now, if we had $100,000--

A hundred thousand what?

I was going to say, if we had $100,000,

we could pay off our debts.

-What were you going to say?

-The same thing.

Why, you dirty crook!

Miss Annie Oakley.

Chief Sitting Bull.

-Do you see him yet?

-He'll be here.

Miss Oakley. Enchanted.

You're a friend of Frank Butler's.

-How'd you know?

-White gloves.

Charmed.

'Chanted.

Enchanted.

Charmed.

Oh, charmed.

Oh, 'chanted.

Enchanted.

Oh, charmed.

Delighted.

No. You either got to be charmed

or 'chanted.

-May I get you some chicken salad?

-You sure can.

I don't know what's ailing me lately

but I'm always hungry.

-I wonder what that's from.

-From not eating.

All those medals,

I read they were worth $100,000.

What is that big one for?

For shooting the apple

off the Crown Prince's head.

And this little one?

For shooting the worm out of the apple.

Isn't she heavenly?

Miss Oakley,

won't you shoot something for us?

Yes. Please do.

If I'd brought my gun, I'd love to.

I'd love to shoot all of you.

Pawnee Bill!

Waiter, drop the tray

and throw the guests of honor out.

-Ain't we merging?

-The merger's off.

Come on, everybody.

-Out!

-Why?

They haven't got as much money

as we haven't got.

You've got to do something!

Wait!

Two shows must go together.

Annie want Frank. Annie get Frank.

Papa Bull find money.

Where?

Me know paleface with many diamonds,

much gold.

Who?

You.

Me?

But I can't sell my medals.

No sell medals, no money for merger.

No merger, nobody merge.

But we've got to merge.

There's too many white gloves

around here.

I'll tell you what I'll do.

If I can keep them until Frank sees them,

you can have them.

Well, my old partner.

It'll be great to be working together again.

Waiter, champagne

for all the guests of honor.

Come on, everybody.

You realize you just gave up

your whole bankroll.

I don't care.

I've got what I had when I started.

Don't fret, Charlie. I'm doing fine.

"Taking stock of what I have

and what I haven't

"What do I find

"The things I've got will keep me satisfied

"Checking up on what I have

and what I haven't

"What do I find

"A healthy balance

"On the credit side

"Got no diamond, got no pearl

still I think I'm a lucky girl

"I've got the sun in the morning

and the moon at night

"Got no mansion, got no yacht

still I'm happy with what I've got

"I've got the sun in the morning

and the moon at night

"Sunshine gives me a lucky day

"Moonshine gives me the Milky Way

"Got no checkbooks, got no banks

still I'd like to express my thanks

"I've got the sun in the morning

and the moon at night

"And with the sun in the morning

and the moon in the evening

"I'm all right

"Got no butler, got no maid

still we think you've been overpaid

"I've got the sun in the morning

and the moon at night

"You've got the sun in the morning

and the moon at night

"Got no silver, got no gold

what you got can't be bought or sold

"I've got the sun in the morning

and the moon at night

"She's got the sun in the morning

and the moon at night

"Sunshine gives me a lucky day

"Moonshine gives me the Milky Way

"Got no diamond, got no pearl

still Miss Annie's a lucky girl

"I've got the sun in the morning

"Sun in the morning

"Moon in the evening

"Moon in the evening

"Sun in the morning
