Footloose

I gotta cut loose, footloose

Kick off your Sunday shoes

Please, Louise

Pull me off of my knees

Jack, get back

C'mon before we crack

Lose your blues

Everybody cut footloose

You're playin'so cool

Obeying every rule

Dig way down in your heart

You're burning, yearning for some

Somebody to tell you

That life ain't passing you by

I'm trying to tell you

It will if you don't even try

You can fly if you'd only cut loose

Footloose

Kick off your Sunday shoes

Oowhee, Marie

Shake it, shake it for me

Whoa, Milo

C'mon, c'mon let go

Lose your blues

Everybody cut footloose

You got to turn it around

And put your feet on the ground

Now take ahold of your soul

I'm turning it loose

Footloose

And he is testing us.

Every, every day,

our Lord is testing us.

If he wasn't testing us...

how would you account...

for the sorry state

of our society...

for the crimes...

that plague the big cities

of this country...

when he could sweep this pestilence

from the face of the earth...

with one mighty gesture of his hand?

If our Lord wasn't testing us,

how would you account...

for the proliferation these days...

of this obscene

rock and roll music...

with its gospel of easy sexuality...

and relaxed morality?

If our Lord wasn't testing us,

why, he could take all...

these pornographic books

and albums...

and turn them into one big

fiery cinder like that!

But how would that make us

stronger for him?

One of these days,

my Lord is going to come to me...

and ask me for an explanation...

for the lives of each

and every one of you.

What am I going to tell him

on that day?

That I was busy?

That I was tired?

That I was bored?

No! I can never let up!

I welcome his test.

I welcome this challenge

from my Lord...

so that one day I can deliver

all of you unto his hands.

And when that day dawns...

I don't want to have

to do any explaining!

I don't want to be missing...

from your lives!

Praise the Lord in singing...

hymn number 397...

"What a Friend We Have in Jesus. "

What a friend

We have in Jesus

All our sins and grief to bear

I will. You have

a good week now. Bye.

Mrs. MacCormack, your sister

has us so excited about you coming.

- Thank you.

- Did you meet my wife, Vi?

- No. How do you do?

- How nice to meet you.

- This is my son, Ren.

- Hello, Ren.

- Would you excuse me?

- Daddy?

Ariel, will you come

and meet the MacCormacks?

The stunning new gentleman.

This is Mrs. MacCormack

and her son. Is it Ren?

Ren's going to be new

at the high school tomorrow.

Me, Edna, Wendy Jo and Rusty are

going for a soda at the Hi-Spot.

Ariel, remember

you have school tomorrow.

I'll be home for supper.

God, is he excellent!

What, the new kid?

He's all right.

Are you blind?

He is gorgeous!

- Have you seen the new high school?

- No, I haven't.

I almost forgot.

Cindy Addis had her baby.

What was it? Who told you?

- My mother spoke to her mother.

- Is she coming back for graduation?

I don't feel sorry for her.

You can't buy a diaphragm

through the mail. I'm serious.

Did she decide who the father was?

It was Duane Capps.

Wait! I've been going with

Duane Capps. He'd never have time.

How long does it take?

Ladies and gentlemen,

moving up behind us...

you'll notice the

incredible barf-mobile.

Come on!

Hi, girls. Goin' my way?

You lonely tonight?

- You want a race, you got a race!

- What, that piece of junk?

- Step on it!

- I am steppin' on it!

Come on! No guts, huh?

- In back of us, buddy!

- Take this, Rusty.

- Come on!

- You chicken!

- Come on, take you all on, girl.

- Come on! Come on, Chuck!

- What are you doing?

- Come on!

- Edna, slow down, please.

- Throw it, honey.

Stop it!

I'll get closer.

You can do it. Keep coming!

Ariel, will you stop it? Now!

Stop showing off! It's not funny!

You're gonna kill yourself!

Look, please be careful!

He's testing us! He's testing us!

Ariel, there's a truck!

Get in the car!

Sh*t! Get in the truck!

Get in the car!

Be careful!

Come on! Get in!

Get in!

Jesus, we should never

have let her done that.

- Have you met any of your teachers?

- No, I haven't had a chance.

They've only been here

eight hours.

I took care of that last week.

Registered him and everything.

I made you some of those

Toll House squares I promised.

Lulu, you taste one of these,

you'll burn your recipe.

Reverend, we have a little problem.

I heard the English teacher

is planning to teach that book.

Slaughterhouse Five.

Isn't that an awful name?

That's a great book.

Slaughterhouse Five.

It's, it's a classic.

Do you read much?

- In another town it's a classic.

- In any town.

Tom Sawyer is a classic.

- That's fine.

- Ethel, have some more ham.

You sure Ren

doesn't want something?

We're both a little tired

from the move.

I'm gonna take Ren a potato.

Amy, come back and sit down.

I'm sure your cousin's fine.

It's a shock to the system,

moving out here from the big city.

- What if he's starving?

- Amy, you are so lame.

Sarah! Amy, eat!

I can't sit still!

I'm so excited you're both here!

You sure you're not too tired?

No. Ren did most of the driving.

If you ask me,

Ren is a total fox.

Where did you hear that?

See how television and those

kinds of books influence children?

What the hell's the problem?

- Chuck Cranston, are you crazy?

- You're sick!

- Ariel, here's your sweater.

- Ariel, I could kill you!

You almost did.

That's what you get

for sniffing spray starch.

After he graduated,

they drained his brain.

- Edna, you gettin' fries?

- You can't have any.

Wendy Jo!

Yes?

Bring me Edna's fries.

Oh, sure!

Where are you going?

- What are you doing?

- Smuggled tapes.

You be careful with that.

Your daddy hears you playin' it,

he'll bust your butt.

He put his hands all over!

Your mother didn't think

you had any money with you.

Yeah, Mom?

You about ready to go?

You gonna wear that tie?

Yeah.

I think you might want

to dress down for now.

Why? I like the tie.

September, when you go to college,

you can dress like David Bowie.

Come on, let's go.

Why don't you comb your hair?

Sh*t, mister, where are you goin'?

- You're supposed to look.

- Sorry.

Where'd you learn how to drive?

Stay on the right side.

I like that hat. They sell

men's clothes where you got that?

Willard, come on.

- What's your name?

- Ren.

My name's Willard. Hewitt.

- Glad to meet ya.

- How ya doin'?

- All right. I'll see you around.

- All right.

I swear, one of these days...

That tie is fabulous!

I mean it. It's fabulous. Don't let

anyone tell you any different.

Right?

Very good.

Girl, you are on!

Chicago, wow, man.

Must be wild, like the Naked City.

Ah, fish.

I'll tell ya, you're gonna bounce

off the goddamn walls here.

What do you do there?

Oh, I don't know. Same thing

you do here. What do you do here?

- Lot of this.

- Yeah, that too.

I'll tell you, there was this place

called the Blue Heaven.

It was great. Had to steal IDs
