CAPA/TRACKLIST

Letra : Opening (Joseph Taylor, Jr.)

The lady in bed
Is Marjorie Taylor
Dr. Joseph Taylor's wife

Except for the day when she married Joe
This is the happiest day of her life

Except for the day when she married Joe
This is the happiest day of her life

You awake, dear?

Where you been, Joe?

Making rounds

How do you feel?

Feel like jumping out of bed and dancing!
Well, don't!

(He kisses her.)

How's old Skeezicks?

Old Skeezicks is asleep

(MARJORIE and TAYLOR gaze down fondly at their first born.)

His hair is fuzzy
His eyes are blue
His еyes may change
They oftеn do
He weighs eight pounds and an ounce or two
Joseph Taylor, Jr

When he wakes up, he wants to eat
And when he sleeps, he wets his seat
But you'd forgive anyone as sweet
As Joseph Taylor, Jr
Do many people know yet?

About him? Do they know? Why, the whole town's in an uproar! Women are rushing to church, men are pouring into saloons - early this morning, the town's people gathered in front of Elks Hall! His Honor the Mayor addressed them!

Have you heard the news?!

It's a boy!

Here ye, here ye! The birthday of Joseph Taylor Jr. is bound to be a legal holiday someday, so we might as well start on his first birthday! Close the bank! And tell the kids, No school today!

(Cheers from the KIDS. A group of DRUNKS reel on.)

His hair is fuzzy
His eyes are blue
His eyes may change
They often do
He weighs eight pounds and an ounce or two
Joseph Taylor

(hic!)
Jr.!

Ring out, ring out, oh bells of joy
And all the ships at sea, ahoy!
The doctor's wife has a bouncing boy
Joseph Taylor, Jr.!

See what Mrs. Taylor's done
Had herself an eight-pound son
Hail him, hail him, everyone
Joseph Taylor, Jr

Joseph Taylor, Jr
Ring, oh bells of joy
For Joseph Taylor, Jr

Marjorie's eight-pound boy

(Back to just MARJORIE in her bed, with TAYLOR beside her.)

Joseph Taylor, Jr
Marjorie's eight-pound boy
