Rose of Washington Square Page #7

"I don't love from here.

I love from here too...

"'cause I love the way

you babies are scared to love.

"Not because he shaves every day

or changes his shirt three times a week...

"or takes me to the movies every

Thursday night, but because when I love.

I love all over and from now on. "

Tell them that, do you understand?

Tell them that.

- Tell them that?

- Smack in their teeth.

And in the first place, baby, this is

your song. It was born just for you.

You sing it and they'll never

forget it, or you.

That's it, honey.

Come on.

- I don't want to go out there, Rose.

- But, darling, I want you to.

Can't you see I'm in no mood

to listen to a song?

I can't stop thinking

about tomorrow.

- I'd like to listen, Rose, but-

- Bart, the song is for you.

You've got to hear it.

It's important.

All right, honey.

Come on.

- Hold him here, will you?

- Uh-huh.

Darling, you stay here.

Oh, I'm sorry, Ted.

I don't know what to say.

I don't know what to do.

Skip it, that's all.

Skip it.

For the first time in my life...

it's- it's not easy to talk to you-

even to look at you.

But, honey, you didn't do it.

Oh, I know, but...

what he does to me I can stand...

but what he does

to a swell guy like you, well-

Well, that's different.

Stop worrying, will you?

I'll make it back some way.

But, baby, when I think

of the "Mammy" songs...

America's gonna have

to listen to from now on-

# Mammy #

# Mammy #

# The sun shines east

The sun shines west #

# I know where

I know where the sun shines best #

# Mammy #

# Mammy #

# My heartstrings are tangled around #

# Alabamy #

# I, I'm a-comin' #

# Sorry that I made you wait #

# I, I'm a-coming #

# I hope and trust

that I'm not late #

# Mammy #

# Mammy #

# I'd walk a million miles

for one of your smiles #

# My Mammy #

# Aw, Mammy #

Mammy!

My little Mammy.

# The sun shines east

The sun shines west #

# I know where

I know where the sun shines best #

# It's on my Mammy

I'm talkin' about #

# Nobody else's #

# My little Mammy #

# My heartstrings

are tangled around #

# Alabamy #

# Mammy

Mammy, I'm, I'm comin' #

# Oh, I hope I didn't

make you wait #

# Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin' #

# Oh, God I hope I'm not late #

# Mammy don't you know me #

# It's your little baby #

# I'd walk a million miles #

# For one of your smiles #

# My Ma, Mammy #

Come in.

Hello, kid.

- I'm sorry to bother you.

- It's no bother at all.

- What's the matter?

- Oh, it's Rose, Ted.

- Rose? What's wrong?

- You know what's wrong.

It was bad enough when he first left,

but now it's getting worse.

If she doesn't snap out of it,

she's liable to go crazy, Ted.

All she does is sit around

and stare out the window...

wondering where he is,

if he's cold or broke or hungry.

If she could only hear the guy was dead,

it would be better than this.

- Not knowing anything at all.

- Don't she ever go out with anybody?

Oh, no. Just the theater.

And that song-

Honestly, Ted, when she sings, it's like-

Oh, it's like taking her heart

in her two hands...

and just holding it

out in front of her.

I know. I heard her sing it

the other night.

- But what are we going to do, Ted?

- We gotta get her out of here.

Show or no show, we've got to get her

out of New York. Florida, Europe-

- I don't care where it is, just

so we get her away from here. - Oh-

Men! If any man so much

as looks at me, I'll kill him.

# It's cost me a lot #

# But there's one thing that I've got #

# It's my man #

# Cold and wet

Tired, you bet #

# But all that I soon forget #

# With my man #

# He's not much for looks #

# And no hero out of books #

# He's my man #

# Two or three girls has he #

# That he likes as well as me #

# But I love him #

# I don't know why I should #

# He isn't good #

# He isn't true #

# He beats me too #

# What can I do #

# Oh, my man #

# I love him so #

# He'll never know #

#All my life is just despair #

#But I don't care #

# When he takes me in his arms #

# The world is bright #

# All right #

# What's the difference if I say #

# I'll go away #

# When I know I'll come back

on my knees someday #

# For whatever my man is #

# I am his #

# Forever #

#More #

#Oh, my man #

# I love him so #

# He'll never know #

# All my life is just despair #

# But I don't care #

# When he takes me in his arms #

# The world is bright #

#All right #

# What's the difference #

#If I say #

#I'll go away #

# When I know I'll come back

on my knees #

#Someday #

# For whatever my man is #

# I am his #

# Forever #

Hello, cowboy.

Oh, hello, son.

I was hoping you'd come back.

There's, uh-

- There's one thing you can do for me,

if you will. - Yeah?

Is there, uh- Is there any way

you can keep her name out of it?

I understand.

I'll see what we can do.

Come on, son.

Albany local leaving at 12:15.

Yonkers, Tarrytown-

What's five years, darling?

Yes, it-

It isn't forever, is it?

All aboard.

Come on, buddy. Break it up.

We've gotta get out of here.

Nobody but us, honey.

Remember? Nobody but us.

- I'll be waiting, darling.

- Just us, darling. Remember?

It won't be long.

Just us, darling.

I'll be waiting, darling.

I'll be waiting.

I'll be waiting.

I'll be waiting.
