Give Me a Sailor

L:

The life I live

I would gladly give

For the U.S.A. and you

But I'd be sore

if a doggone war;

Ever came between us two

I hope I stay in the U.S.A.

But if there comes a day

when I must go away

I'll still be true

To the U.S.A. and you

I'd wash my neck I would

even take a job by heck

For the U.S.A. and you

and you and you

I'd never, never, never, never

glance at a low-down dance

- From the day you say I do

- I don't.

I don't like kids.

You don't?

That's the way I am.

Yeah?

- But I'd raise nine or ten-

- Must to help our Uncle Sam

Then I'll be true

To the U.S.A. and you

The life I live

I would gladly give

For the U.S.A. and you

But I'd be sore

if a doggone war;

Ever came between us two

I hope I stay in the U.S.A.

But if there comes a day

when I must go away;

I'll still be true

To the U.S.A. and you

Wheres my brother? Lieutenant Brewster'll

be right back, sir, Mr. Brewster.

I'll wait.

Hiya, sweetheart.

You Jezebel, you.

Ah! What are you doing here?

The magnificent obsession.

I've been wanting to see you.

Have a cigar. Thanks.

Wait, that's one of mine!

You don't think I'd give you a good one?

All right, Ensign, on your way.

Oh, brother, can you keep a secret?

Yeah, what is it?

I need fifty bucks. Okay,

I won't tell a soul.

Aw, but this is my shore leave. I

want to paint San Francisco red.

Why bother me?

I need a brush.

All right.

Here's five dollars.

Five? Well, I'll

find a smaller town.

Uh, Walter.

About Nancy.

Is it going to be

orange blossoms this trip?

Yeah, I hope so.

Huh? Why?

Because Nancy's dynamite,

and she's got to be handled.

The way you are, you couldn't

handle a firecracker.

Will you go- Now, me, that's different.

I'm dynamite too.

You haven't seen

as many ports as I have.

Now, if ever I married

Nancy, she'd be right there.

Where? Well, there.

I- someplace-

Look, j I m. Will you

please- Take that face.

Oh, boy. Yeah. She's taken you.

She's beautiful.

Yeah.

But tricky.

And those eyes.

Stop and go signals

if ever I saw any.

And don't kid yourself,

Admiral, that's no dimple.

That's from leaning against

those Navy buttons.

All right, come on. I'm

not talking for myself!

But why don't you switch to Letty?

Letty!

Aw, she's always been crazy about you.

And can she cook!

That'd make two women happy. Letty'd

get you, and Nancy'd get me.

Come on. You know,

kind of romantic.

Brewster brothers, Larkin sisters?

Yeah.

That doesn't hurt.

That does!

Oh, well- Listen.

Honest, Walter.

Every time I think of Nancy,

I get a pain right here.

Yeah? Well, things are

changing all over.

But wait a minute!

You can't kick me.

I can't, eh?

No.

Captain's compliments,

sir.

Captain's

compliments, sir!

He'd like to see

Lt. Brewster.

I'll be right along. Yeah,

he'll be right along.

Yes, sir.

Oh!

Oh!

lust one more thing.

Get this through your thick head.

Oh, yeah?

I'm going ashore, and I'm

gonna propose to Nancy. Oh!

If she accepts me, we'll be married before

the eet sails, so none of your tricks!

Tricks! Yes. No more monkey

business from you and Letty.

From me and Letty? Why- Wh-What are you talking

about? You know what I'm talking about.

Ever since I bought Nancy her first lollipop,

you and Letty have been snooping...

and plotting and writing

each other notes.

Tryin' to gum us up!

Why, that's ridiculous!

I don't know

how you do it,

but I have a feeling I'm

being double-crossed.

Why, Walter!

That hurts!

You think I'd do a thing like that to you?

You're darn right I do.

Not me!

Not to my own blood brother.

For ten years, Brewster, I've been promising

myself a crack at your California trout.

If it wasn't your home territory,

I wouldn't impose on you.

Do you mind?

No imposition at all, sir.

I'll drive up to Lake Paradise and

make any arrangements you wish.

I don't know much about the accommodations-

Never mind the accommodations.

How's the fishing?

It used to be terrific, sir.

Fine. For a mess of rainbow trout,

I'd sleep in a rain barrel!

Yes, sir.

You sure it's no trouble, chief?

No trouble, Mr. Brewster.

I'll telephone the message the minute

I get ashore. Well, thanks a lot.

Miss Letty Larkin. Don't forget.

The phone number's on it.

Nancy's out.

Yeah, out.

No. No.

No. All right.

All right, all right.

Oh!

Aww. Ice!

The icebox's plumb full. I

couldn't get this in nowhere.

Yeah.

Nancy is having a picnic.

Hey, do you know anything about cameras?

No, do you? Here.

Hey! You can't leave this here!

I did!

Why, you big old-

Oh.

Oh. Pa!

Somebody! I'm freezing!

Oh.

She's out!

Yeah, Nancy's out!

NO.

All right, all right,

all right.

Come on, Ethel May.

Oh, Letty's so busy. Do you mind

if I leave Ethel May with you?

The little Angel has been pestering

me all morning. Haven't either, see?

Oh! Lookit!

L:

Hey'. Oh, naughty, naughty.

Ha-ha!

To Walter from Letty!

Oh!

Mrs. Brewster, I wonder

if you'd take my picture.

Good gracious, dear!

If I stop, I'll never get back

in time for the picnic! Wait-

Too much filling,

dear. Good-bye.

Whee!

A toboggan! Ethel May!

Now, stop!

Ethel May!

Give me my ice!

Letty loves Uncle Walter!

Letty loves Uncle Walter!

There's the front door!

And there's the back door!

My mother said I could stay!

Good-bye! I don't care

what your mother said!

Oh! Oh! Hello?

No. it's the front door!

Oh, it's you. And I had my key

all the time! Isn't that funny!

Yeah, I'm dying laughing.

Ha-ha. Good-bye!

Good-bye.

Letty! Oh, It's hot in here.

Yeah, I know.

Oh, look, dear. Let me help you.

There's a catch in there someplace.

Oh, no! I was just wondering if

you'd lend me your owered dress.

My dress? Yes. You see, it's

just my shade of blue, and-

Well, I thought it'd be

so nice for the picnic.

Sure. That's why

I'm wearing it.

Oh, but it's too small!

You simply bulge in it.

Well... you're not

gonna bulge in it.

Oh, please.

Letty, look.

Look. You can have

my New Jersey knit.

And look like a bag

full of eggs? Huh-uh.

Darn you, Nancy. You've been trying to

get that dress ever since I made it.

Oh, all right!

What's this?

Oh! it's a cake.

Yeah.

To Walter from Letty. Well,

isn't that just too sweet.

Well, I would have put Jim's name

on it too, but I ran out of icing.

- Oh, of course. - Sure. Walter

doesn't mean anything in my life.

It's... just that... Walter's

name happened to come first.

Ha-ha, said the duchess,

laughing.

Letty loves Uncle Walter!

Letty loves Uncle Walter!

Scat! Now go out and dig yourself

a nice big hole, Ethel May.

And fa 'm it'.!

Oh, Letty, dear. Call

the drugstore. I'm all out of-

Now, see here, my love. All I've got

to get through before 5:00 is...

a couple of hundred sandwiches, four dozen

stuffed eggs and a nervous breakdown!

And if you think- Oh, that reminds me!

You better plan on three more.

Iran into Bill Slawson and the Myers twins,

and, well, they heard about your picnic, and-

My picnic? I wonder how many I'd have
