May [ hear you say

I do

Oh, may I

Be the only one

to say I

Really fell in love

the day I

Oh, the day that

I set eyes on you

May I

With your

very kind permissin

Tell you that

my one ambition

Is to share

Oh, to share that

love affair with you

Here [ wait

Do give me my chance

Do tell me my fate

What is your answer

May I

Hold you to my heart

and pray I

Will be there beside you

when they groom and bride you

May I hear you say

I do

Good night,

lovely little lady

I believe you taught her

that trick yourself.

Yes, ma'am.

Anyhow I think you better give Droopy

some exercise. She looks stuffy.

Yes, ma'am.

Uh, Doris, ['m not sure the sailor and the

bear should be allowed to parade this deck.

Why not, when you think of the

other things that parade this deck.

Ha! We're playing bridge.

Uncle Hubert,

couldn't you manage...

to be a little less rude to Prince

Michael and Prince Alexander?

I don't like 'em. They're

really very nice boys.

I know. I know. They dance beautifully,

probably knit beautifully too.

But I don't like 'em.

You better had. They want

to marry me. Both of them?

Yes. That's what makes it so

difficult; I can only marry one.

Well, don't stint yourself. You

know you can afford both of them.

Now, Uncle Hubert, don't be unkind.

The Siamese twins married one girl.

They're not Siamese. Well, I

could paste 'em together for you.

Even then,

you wouldn't have a man.

Ah! Well, you know, I'm very

fond of that animal. Aren't you?

Who, me? Oh, yes,

I'm very attached to her.

Say, what would you

think about giving her...

a little more scope

when you exercise her?

How do you mean?

Well, uh-

Wait just a minute. Just

a minute. Right here.

Well, how about these?

I hardly think the owner would

want me to go skating about, sir.

Oh, no, no, not for you.

Let's put 'em on Droopy.

Droopy? Yes. Then she'll

get twice the exercise.

Don't you see?

Yes, sir. Yeah. Come

on, Droopy, old girl.

Come on.

All right, get her up.

There you are.

Hey!

Look out!

Look out!

- Hello. Oh, I-I-

- I'll murder that sailor!

He should be put in irons!

And fed on bread and water.

Look out.!

Look out.!

The lad is teaching that bear too

fast. But can you imagine that?

Fancy skating lessons the first

time out. Hold her, sailor.

This is insufferable! The

man must be out of his mind.

- Anybody get hurt?

- I did, but not where it shows.

In my country, the man would be

taught a lesson he'd never forget.

The lad meant no harm.

Put Droopy to bed and come back

here and wait for me. Yes, ma'am.

I should report you to the

Captain to be disciplined,

but I prefer to deal with

you myself. Yes, ma'am.

He's the freshest sailor

I've ever seen.

Ah, but he's cute.

If you'd only give me

the right to protect you.

Oh, Doris, if I were your husband, such

things as this would never happen to you.

Well, anyway,

who wants to walk?

Hubert, I want one.

You want one?

I want a prince.

I want a drink,

a great big drink.

She walks like you

She talks like you

Says pretty little things

just the way you do

So I fell in love with her

Because she

reminds me of you

She doubts like you

She pouts like you

Always keeps on telling me

that I'm untrue

So I fell in love with her

Because she

reminds me of you

Now time and time

I've called her by your name

And our love

I never have denied

But she said if I loved her

half as much as I love you

She'd be more than satisfied

She sighs like you

She cries like you

Always keeps on telling me

that I'm untrue

But I fell in love with her

Because she

reminds me of you

Angry, Hubert? No, I'm

not angry. I'm just hurt.

I had a vague idea

we were engaged to be married.

I'm perfectly willing to marry you,

but first I want you to buy me a prince.

What are you gonna do

with it, have it stuffed?

No, I wanna marry it.

I- What?

Then when I'm a princess,

I'll divorce him and marry you.

Well? You asked me to come back.

Haven't you anything to say

about your extraordinary behavior?

I'm sorry it happened, and I said

so. What made you do such a thing?

The reason one does things

isn't always clear.

It's perfectly clear to me.

You did it because you're fresh,

irresponsible, indifferent to the decorum

of my ship and safety of my guests.

Isn't that true?

Answer me!

Well, I-I wouldn't say that. A full grown

man who should be doing something useful...

like trying to rise

in your professin,

making yourself fit to command

a ship of your own someday.

But you haven't anything on your mind but

singing songs or playing games with bears.

I also scrub decks.

You are being impertinent.

I haven't said anything

disrespectful... yet.

You annoy me so,

I could slap your face.

Well, if it would make

you feel any better.

Ohh! Is there anything else, ma'am?

Get below and never put

your foot on this deck again!

The next port we touch, you're

dismissed! Yes, ma'am. Good night.

Fog lifting any? No sign of it yet, sir.

[f some sweet bambino

says you are his queen-o

Then in some casino

he fills you with vino

The charts!

They're overboard!

Charts. Don't be silly. Christopher

Columbus never had any charts.

It's more sporting,

more exciting...

to sail out

into the unknown.

Now see what you've done now. Take

the wheel. I'll call the skipper.

No, no, no, don't bother.

Don't bother.

I'll steer this ship like the ancient Phoenicians

- by the stars.

This is serious, sir.

Oh, calm yourself.

Men nowadays use too many

gadgets. There's the North Star.

The North Star is there.

That's the North Star. I'll

show you. Just a minute.

We're on a reef!.

Close all watertight doors!

Three feet of water

in the port hold, sir.

Everybody on deck, and put

on your life preservers!

We're sinking!

The owner and passengers will

leave in Mr.Johnson's boat.

Everything is okay now,

my darling.

Captain said to shove

off at once. Right.

Are you coming?

One minute.

Don't worry, Edith.

I'll save you.

She's filling up fast, sir.

Stand by the pumps.

Where you goin'?

I forgot Droopy, sir.

Hurry up, Doris!

We're sinking!

- Soon as I get my clothes on!

- A life preserver's more important.

I haven't got one!

We'll save you!

I'm practically

in the water now.

Hubert!

There goes our sea skate!

Look, Droopy!

Good night

Lovely little lady

[ must say adieu to you

And your loveliness

Good night

Lovely little lady

How it makes me grieve

to leave

The charms you possess

For when you are gone

my dear

How lonely it seems

But we'll meet again

my dear

On a pillow of love

'neath a blanket of green

So good night

lovely little lady

Oh, let us kiss again

And then good night

Many brave hearts

Are asleep

in the deep

Well, good night

Lovely little lady

I must say adieu to you

And your loveliness

[s that you, sailor?

Yoo-hoo!

Hey, sailor!

Yoo-hoo.!

Yell in English!

- Well, where are ya?

- Somewhere in the Pacific Ocean!

Well, keep on yellin'!
