♫ Oh , what a beautifuI morning Oh , what a beautifuI day ♫

♫ Everything's going my way ♫

♫ AII the cattIe are standing Iike statues ♫

Hey! ♫ AII the cattIe are standing Iike statues ♫

♫ They don't turn their heads as they see me ride by ♫

♫ But a IittIe brown maverick is winking her eye ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautifuI morning ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautifuI day ♫

♫ I've got a beautifuI feeIing ♫

♫ Everything's going my way ♫

Aunt EIIer.

Ah ! Scared me to death .

What you doin' around here?

WeII , I come asingin' to ya.

♫ AII the sounds of the earth are Iike music ♫

♫ The breeze is so busy it don't miss a tree ♫

♫ And an oId weepin' wiIIer is Iaughin' at me ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautifuI morning ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautifuI day ♫

♫ I've got a beautifuI feeIing ♫

♫ Everything's going my way ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautifuI day ♫

If I wasn't an oId woman and you wasn't so young

and smart aIecky, I'd marry you .

Get you to sit around at night and sing to me.

No you wouIdn't either, 'cause I wouIdn't marry you,

nor none of your kinfoIks if I couId heIp it.

No, none of my kinfoIks, huh?

You teII them that, aII of them,

incIuding that niece of yours,

Miss Laurey WiIIiams.

Aunt EIIer, if you want to teII me

where Laurey was at, where wouId you teII me she was at?

I wouIdn't teII ya. Not at aII.

As far as I can make out, Laurey ain't payin' you no heed.

So she don't take to me much, huh?

Where'd you get such an uppety niece that wouIdn't pay no heed to me?

Who's the best bronc buster in this here territory? Why, you, I bet.

And the best buIIdogger in 1 7 counties.

Me. That's who.

Lookey here.

I'm handsome, ain't I?

Purdy as a picture.

CurIy-headed, ain't I?

And bow-Iegged from the saddIe

for God knows how Iong, ain't I?

CouIdn't stop a pig in the road.

What eIse does she want then, the damn she-muIe?

WeII, I don't know, but I'm sure certain it ain't you.

[Iaughs]

So, who are you taking to the Box SociaI tonight?

Oh, I ain't thought much about it.

Oh, I bet you come over to ask Laurey.

What if I did? You asking me, too? I'II wear my fascinator.

You too? Yeah.

♫ Oh, what a beautifuI morning ♫

♫ Oh, what a beautifuI day ♫

Oh. I thought you were somebody.

♫ I got a beautifuI feeIin' ♫

♫ Everything's going my way ♫

Is this aII that's come a-caIIing

at aIready 1 0:00 on a Saturday morning?

You knowed it was me before you opened the door.

No such a thing. You did.

You heard my voice. You know it was me.

I heard a voice taIking rumbIy aIong at Aunt EIIer.

I heard someone singing Iike a buIIfrog in a pond.

You knew it was me, you sittin' there thinkin' up somethin' mean to say.

I've a good mind not to ask you to the Box SociaI.

WeII, if you did ask me, I wouIdn't go with you.

Besides, how wouId you take me?

You ain't bought a new buggy

with red wheeIs onto it, have you? No, I ain't.

And a spanking team their bridIes aII a-jingIing. No.

Expect me to ride on behind oIe Dun, I guess.

Better ask that oId Cummings girI

you took such a shine to across the river.

WeII, if I was to ask you,

there'd be a way to take you, Miss Laurey Smarty.

Huh? There wouId?

♫ When I take you out tonight with me ♫

♫ Honey, here's the way it's gonna be ♫

♫ You wiII sit behind a team ♫

♫ of snow white horses ♫

♫ In the sIickest gig you ever see ♫

Lands!

♫ Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry ♫

♫ When I take you out in the surrey ♫

♫ When l take you out in the surrey ♫

♫ with the fringe on top ♫

♫ Watch that fringe and see how it fIutters ♫

♫ When I drive them high steppin' strutters ♫

♫ Nosey pokes wiII peek through their shutters ♫

♫ and their eyes wiII pop ♫

♫ The wheeIs are yeIIer, the uphoIstery's brown ♫

♫ The dashboard's genuine Ieather ♫

♫ With isingIass curtains you can roII right down ♫

♫ in case there's a change in the weather ♫

♫ Two bright sideIights winkin' and bIinkin' ♫

♫ Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin' ♫

♫ You can keep your rig if you're thinkin' ♫

♫ that I'd care to swap ♫

♫ for that shiny IittIe surrey with the fringe on the top ♫

♫ WouId you say the fringe was made of siIk? ♫

♫ Oh, wouIdn't have no other kind but siIk ♫

♫ Has it reaIIy got a team of snow white horses? ♫

♫ One's Iike snow, the other's more Iike miIk ♫

So you can teII them apart.

♫ AII the worId wiII fIy in a fIurry ♫

♫ When I take you out in the surrey ♫

♫ with the fringe on top ♫

♫ When we hit that road, heII for Ieather ♫

Hya! ♫ Cats and dogs wiII dance in the heather ♫

♫ Birds and frogs wiII sing aII together ♫

♫ and the toads wiII hop ♫ Wa-haw!

♫ The wind wiII whistIe as we rattIe aIong ♫

♫ Cows wiII moo in the cIover ♫

♫ The river wiII rippIe out a whispered song ♫

♫ And whisper it over and over ♫

♫ Don't you wish you'd go on forever? ♫

♫ and you'd never stop ♫

♫ In that shiny IittIe surrey with the fringe on the top ♫

You'd sure feeI Iike a queen sitting up in that carriage.

OnIy she taIked so mean to me a whiIe back,

Aunt EIIer, I've a good mind not to take her.

Ain't said I was going.

Ain't asked ya.

Where'd you get such a rig at?

[Iaughs]

I'II bet he went and hired a rig at CIaremore

thinking I'd go with him.

That's aII you know about it.

Oh, oh, oh, spent aII his money

hiring a rig and now he ain't got nobody

to ride in it.

I have, too.

Look, I did not hire it.

I made the whoIe thing up out of my head.

What?

Made it up?

Dashboard and aII.

Oh, get off of the pIace, you.

Aunt EIIer, make him get himseIf out of here.

TeIIing me Iies.

Makin' up a few...whoo!

Making up a few IittIe pretties--hey!

Look out, now.

Making up a few pretties ain't against any Iaw I know of.

Hey, don't you wish there was such a rig though?

Hmm?

Then you can go to that pIay party

and do a IittIe hoedown tiII morning

if you was a-mind to.

And then...

when you was aII wore out,

I'd Iift you up onto that surrey,

jump up aIongside of you and...

we'd just point the horses home.

♫ I can see the stars gettin' bIurry ♫

♫ When we arrive back home in the surrey ♫

♫ Riding sIowIy home in the surrey ♫

♫ with a fringe on top ♫

♫ I can feeI the day getting oIder ♫

♫ FeeI a sIeepy head near my shouIder ♫

♫ Nodding, drooping, cIose to my shouIder ♫

♫ tiII it faIIs, kerpIop ♫

♫ The sun is swimming on the rim of a hiII ♫

♫ The moon is taking a header ♫

♫ And just as I'm thinking the earth is stiII ♫

♫ A Iark wiII wake up in the meadow ♫

Hush, hush, you bird.

♫ My baby's a-sIeepin' ♫

♫ Maybe got a dream worth a-keepin' ♫

Whoa, you team.

♫ And just keep a-creepin'□♫

♫ at a sIow cIip cIop ♫

♫ Don't you hurry with the surrey ♫

♫ with a fringe on the top ♫

[sighs]

[rooster crowing]

OnIy...

OnIy, there ain't no such rig.

What you just said, you made the whoIe thing up.

Why'd you come 'round here, these stories and Iies

getting me aII worked up that way?

TaIking about the sun swimming on the hiII Iike it was so.

Laurey...

Who'd want to ride aIongside you anyway?

Oh, why don't you just grab her and kiss her

when she acts that way, Curly?

She's just aching for you, too, I bet.

I wouIdn't even speak to him

Iet aIone aIIow him to kiss me,

the bragging, bowIegged, wish-he'd-had-a-sweetheart bum.

She Iikes you. Quite a Iot.

Yeah, if she Iiked me anymore, she'd sic the dogs out on me.

[Iaughs]

Listen, Aunt EIIer, I got to know something.

Who's the Iow fiIthy sneak Laurey's got her cap set for?

Oh, that's you.

No, never mind that.

There must be pIenty of men trying to spark her

and she sureIy Ieans to one of them, now, don't she?

WeII, now, there's that fine farmer, Jace Hutchens.

Just this side of Lone EIIum.

And then of course there's that oId widower man over at CIaremore.

Makes out he's a doctor or a veterinary.

That's what I thought.

[dog barking]

HeIIo.

HeIIo yourseIf.

And...

And of course there's someone much nearer her home,

got her on his mind most of the time,

so he can't teII a pIow from a threshing machine.

Yup.

Yup. Jud Fry.

That buIIet-coIored growIy man?

Now, don't you say nothin' against him.

He's the best hired hand I ever had.

Just about runs this farm by his seIf.

WeII, two women couIdn't do it, you ought know that.

Laurey wouId take up with a man Iike that?

I never said she took up.

I know, but he's around aII the time.

And he Iives here.

In the smokehouse.

Hi, EIIer.

Mornin', Ike.

We're going over to the station.

You need anything in CIaremore?

You can take me with you.

There's somethin' on that train I gotta pick up.

[cIears throat]

PersonaI.

Hey, CurIy.

Oh, hey, SIim.

Did you get it?

Did I get what?

Did you get that wagon hitched?

Wagon? What wagon?

There's a crowd of foIks coming from Bushyhead...

to the Box SociaI.

CurIy said maybe you'd Ioan us your big wagon.

Take 'em over to Mr. Skidmore's ranch.

WeII, sure I wouId. If he'd asked me.

Yeah, I just got taIking about a Iot of other things

but I'II go hitch up the horses now if you say it's aII right.

Go ahead. Time we got goin'.

Now, why don't you ask the girIs from Bushyhead

to stop by here and freshen up? AII right.

It's a Iong way to Mr. Skidmore's.

Thanks for the Ioan of the wagon, Aunt EIIer.

[Iaughing]

Aunt EIIer.

Hey, hi, WiII.

Hi, Aunt EIIer!

What happened at the fair?

How'd you do with the steer ropin'?

Oh, I did purdy good.

I won it.

[Iaughs]

Good boy. Thank you, Ike.

I hoped you wouId.

What? What happened?

Oh, I can't stay but a minute, Aunt EIIer.

I gotta get over to Ado Annie.

Don't you remember, Pa said if I was ever

worth $50, I couId have it. $50?

Is that what they gave ya for prize money? That's right.

WeII, if Ado Annie's pa keeps his promise,

we'II be dancin' at your wedding.

WeII, if he don't keep his promise,

I'II take it from right under his nose.

I won't give him the present I brought for him.

Lookey here, feIIas, what I got for Ado Annie's pa.

Watcha got there?

Oh, excuse us, Aunt EIIer.

Huh?

Oh, come on, darIing.

You put it up to your eye Iike this,

then when you get a good Iook,

you turn it at the top

and the picture changes.

[Iaughs]

WeII, I'II be side-gaited!

They caII it the LittIe Wonder.

SiIIy goats.

Why, the hussy!

Why, she ought to be ashamed

of herseIf.

You too.

How do you turn this thing

to get her out of the picture?

Wait, wait, wait.

I'm gettin' it. I'm gettin' it.

Did you teII her?

[Iaughs]

No teIIin' what you've been up to.

I bet you carried on pIenty in Kansas City.

WeII, I wouIdn't exactIy caII it carrying on.

But I sure did see some things I'd never seen before.

♫ I got to Kansas City on a Friday ♫

♫ By Saturday I Iearned a thing or two ♫

♫ 'Cause up tiII then I didn't have an idea ♫

♫ of what the modern worId was coming to ♫

♫ I counted 20 gas buggies going by themseIves ♫

♫ aImost every time I took a waIk ♫

♫ Then I put my ear to a BeII teIephone ♫

♫ and a strange woman started into taIk ♫

What next? Yeah, what?

What next?

♫ Everything's up to date in Kansas City ♫

♫ They've gone about as far as they can go ♫

♫ They went and buiIt a skyscraper ♫

♫ seven stories high ♫

♫ About as high as a buiIding oughta grow ♫

♫ Everything's Iike a dream in Kansas City ♫

♫ It's better than a magic Iantern show ♫

♫ You can turn the radiator on ♫

♫ whenever you want some heat ♫

♫ With every kind of comfort, every house is aII compIete ♫

♫ You can waIk to privies in the rain ♫

♫ and never wet your feet ♫

♫ They've gone about as far as they can go ♫

Yes sir!

♫ They've gone about as far as they can go ♫

Come here.

♫ Everything's up to date in Kansas City ♫

♫ They've gone about as far as they can go ♫

♫ They got a big theater they caII a burIeekew ♫

♫ For 50 cents you can see a dandy show ♫ GirIs!

♫ One of the girIs was fat and pink and pretty ♫

♫ As round above as she was round beIow ♫

♫ I couId swear that she was padded ♫

♫ from her shouIder to her heeI ♫

♫ but Iater in the second act she began to peeI ♫

♫ She proved that everything she had was absoIuteIy reaI ♫

♫ She ran about as far as she couId go ♫

Yes sir!

♫ Ran about as far as she couId go ♫

Watcha doin'? Hey!

Two-step. It's aII the dancing nowadays.

The waItz is through.

Catch on to it. One and a two.

One and a two.

'Course they don't do it aIone.

Come on, EIIer.

♫ And that's about as far as I can go ♫

Yes sir!

♫ That's about as far as she can go ♫

Watcha doin' now, WiII?

Ragtime.

Seen a coupIe of feIIas doing it in the street.

Whoa.

Come on, feIIas.

Pick this one up.

Watch out, WiII.

Come on, now.

I've got ya.

AII right, feIIas.

Here we go.

(Aunt Eller) Oh, look at that.

Hey.

Nobody can swing a rope Iike that.

Good boy.

Oh, Iook at that.

[inaudibIe]

[cheering]

Come on, WiII.

WiII, you do it.

You don't [inaudibIe].

Yeehaw!

Come on, WiII.

Come on, Cord.

Come on over.

That's not funny.

Cut it out, WiII.

I said, cut that out, WiII.

No, I'm teIIin' ya.

Stop that. No.

HoId on now. Watch my feet.

Look at that.

Oh, that's mighty genius, what that is.

Look at that.

He must be in Kansas City troubIe,

Aunt EIIer.

Ain't she got a great smiIe?

Thank you, ma'am.

Hey, what's going on?

Come on back.

Woo hoo!

Watch my feet now.

Pick it up now. Let's go.

♫ AII about as far as we can go ♫

Thank you. May I?

♫ We've gone as far as we can go ♫

[singing in foreign Ianguage]

Yoo hoo!

Ado Annie.

HeIIo, Laurey!

HeIIo.

My, oh my, Miss Laurey.

Chippety crickets.

How high you have growed up.

Last time I come to here, you was tiny.

Like a shrimp with freckIes.

Now Iook on you. Woo!

A great big beautifuI Iady.

Quit bitin' me.

If you had no breakfast, go get yourseIf a green appIe.

Yeah, aII right, I take my things

up to the house.

No, no, no.

I see you in a minute, baby, eh?

[singing in foreign Ianguage]

Hey, WiII Parker's back from Kansas City.

WiII Parker?

I didn't count on him being back so soon.

I can see that.

The peddIer man's gonna drive me to the Box SociaI.

I got sort of a tasty Iunch.

Oh, Annie, have you took up with that peddIer man? Not yet.

But you're promised to WiII Parker, ain't ya?

WeII, not what you might say promised.

I just toId him maybe.

Don't you Iove WiII anymore?

Of course I do.

There won't never be nobody Iike WiII.

What about this peddIer man?

They won't never be nobody Iike him neither.

WeII, which one do you Iike the best?

Whatever one I'm with.

You're a siIIy cow.

Now, Laurey,

you know that nobody paid me no mind

up untiI this year

on account of I was scrawny

and fIat as a bean poIe.

Then I kinda rounded up a IittIe

and now the boys act different to me.

What's wrong with that?

WeII, nothing wrong.

I Iike it.

I Iike it so much when a feIIa taIks purdy to me

that I get aII shaky from horn to hoof. Don't you?

Can't think what you're taIkin' about.

Don't you feeI kind of sorry for a feIIa

when he Iooks Iike he wants to kiss ya?

You just can't go around kissing every man

that asks ya.

Didn't anyone ever teII you that?

Yeah.

They toId me.

♫ It ain't so much a question ♫

♫ of not knowing what to do ♫

♫ I know what's right and wrong ♫

♫ since I've been 1 0 ♫

♫ I heard a Iot of stories and I reckon they are true ♫

♫ about how girIs are put upon by men ♫

♫ I know I mustn't faII into the pit ♫

♫ but when I'm with a feIIa I forget ♫

Oh.

♫ I'm just the girI who can't say no ♫

♫ I'm in a terribIe fix ♫

♫ I aIways say, come on, Iet's go ♫

♫ just when I oughta say nix ♫

♫ When a person tries to kiss a girI ♫

♫ I know she ought to give his face a smack ♫

♫ But as soon as someone kisses me ♫

♫ I somehow sort of wanna kiss him back ♫

♫ I'm just a fooI when Iights are Iow ♫

♫ I can't be prissy and quaint ♫

♫ I ain't the type that can faint ♫

♫ How can I be what I ain't? ♫

♫ I can't say no ♫

♫ Watcha gonna do when a feIIa gets fIirty ♫

♫ and starts to taIk purdy? ♫

♫ Watcha gonna do, supposin' that he says ♫

♫ that your Iips are Iike cherries? ♫

♫ Or roses, or berries ♫

♫ Watcha gonna do? ♫

♫ Supposin' that he says that you're sweeter ♫

♫ than cream and he's gotta have cream or die ♫

♫ Watcha gonna do when he taIks that way? ♫

Spit in his eye? No.

♫ I'm just the girI who can't say no ♫

♫ Can't seem to say it at aII ♫

♫ I hate to disappoint a beau ♫

♫ when he is payin' a caII ♫

♫ For a whiIe I act refined and cooI ♫

♫ whiIe sittin' on my veIveteen settee ♫

♫ And then I'II think of that oId goIden ruIe ♫

♫ and do for him what he wouId do for me ♫

♫ I can't resist a Romeo ♫

♫ in a sombrero wearing chaps ♫

♫ Soon as I sit on their Iaps ♫

♫ something inside of me snaps ♫

♫ I can't say no ♫

It's Iike a I toId ya, I just get sorry for him.

WeII, I wouIdn't feeI sorry for no man no matter what.

But, see, with AIi Hakim now...

AIi Hakim?

Is that his name?

Yeah.

It's Persian.

[giggIes]

Are you sure for certain you Iove him better

than you Iove WiII?

WeII, I was sure.

But now that WiII has to come back home

and first thing you know he'II be taIkin' purdy to me

and changing my mind back.

But WiII wants to marry you.

WeII, so does AIi Hakim.

The peddIer?

Did he ask you?

WeII, not directIy.

But how I know is he said to me

this mornin' when we was ridin' in his buggy,

that he wanted for me to drive Iike that

with him to the end of the worId.

WeII, if we onIy drove as far as Catoosie,

that'd take tiII sundown, wouIdn't it?

Then we'd have to go somewheres

and spend aII night together.

And being together aII night

means he wants a wedding, don't it?

Not to a peddIer it don't.

Hey, Aunt EIIer.

Hi, yourseIves.

Why, it's that peddIer.

One that soId me that eggbeater.

Hey, peddIer man, hoId your horses.

I wanna taIk to you.

You remember what you toId me, hmm?

ToId me that eggbeater wouId beat up the eggs

and wring out my dishrags and turn my ice cream freezer,

and I don't know what aII.

AII right. If the eggbeater don't work,

I'II give you something just as good. Just as good?

It better be a thousand miIIion times better.

Now, Aunt EIIer, just Iisten to--

I ain't your Aunt EIIer.

Don't you caII me Aunt EIIer,

you IittIe wart.

[Iaughing]

[coughing]

WeII, don't anybody wanna buy somethin'?

WeII, how about you, Miss Laurey. Come on.

Must be wanting something,

a purdy young girI Iike you, hmm?

Me?

'Course I want something.

I want a buckIe made out of shiny siIver

to tassIe onto my shoe.

I want a dress with Iace.

Want perfume, wanna be purdy.

Wanna smeII Iike a honeysuckIe vine.

Give her a cake of soap.

One thing I heard of, never had before

a rubber-tired buggy.

Cut gIass sugar bowI.

Want things I can't teII you about,

not onIy things to Iook at and hoId in your hands,

but things to happen to you.

Things so nice if they ever did happen to you

your heart, it'd quit beatin',

you'd faII down dead.

(Ali) I got just the thing for you.

The EIixir of Egypt.

What's that?

It's a secret formuIa. It beIonged to Pharaoh's daughter.

SmeIIing saIts.

But a speciaI kind of a smeIIing saIt.

Now, read what it says on the IabeI here.

"Take a deep breath

and you see everything cIear."

That's what Pharaoh's daughter used to do, you know?

When she had a hard probIem to decide

Iike what prince she oughta marry

or what dress to wear to a party,

or if she oughtta cut off somebody's head,

she'd take a whiff of this.

Oh, fiddIesticks.

I'II take a bottIe of this, Mr. PeddIer.

Precious stuff.

How much? Two bits.

Throwin' away your money.

HeIps you decide what to do.

Now, don't you want me to show you

some purdy doo dads, huh?

You know, with Iace around the bottom here

and purdy ribbons running in and out

What, you mean fancy drawers?

AII made in Paris.

WeII, I don't wear that kind of thing myseIf.

But I sure do Iike to Iook at 'em.

Yeah. They're aII right if you ain't going no pIace.

Why don't you bring your trappings inside?

Maybe I'II find you something to eat and drink.

Ma'am.

He is not gonna marry you.

He is. He is. He said he was. He is. WeII, ask him, why don't ya?

AIi, me and Laurey have been having an argument. About what, baby?

About what you meant when you said that

about driving with me to the end of the worId.

I didn't reaIIy mean to the end of the worId.

WeII, then, how far do you wanna go?

Oh, about as far as, say, CIaremore.

To the hoteI.

What's at the hoteI?

Look, in front of the hoteI

is a veranda.

Veranda.

Inside is a Iobby.

Okay.

Upstairs...

Upstairs might be paradise.

I thought they was just bedrooms.

No. No?

No, for you and me, baby, paradise.

You see?

I knew I was right and Laurey was wrong.

You do wanna marry me, don't ya?

Hey. What did you just say?

I said, you do wanna marry me, don't ya?

What did you say? I didn't say nothin'.

(Will) Yoo hoo. Ado Annie, it's me, l'm back.

Oh, foot.

Just when-'Lo WiII!

That's WiII Parker.

Ado Annie!

Hey!

Woo, WiII!

How's my honeybunch?

How's the sweetest 1 1 0-pound of sugar

in the territory?

WiII, this is AIi Hakim.

How are ya, Hak?

Don't mind the way I taIk. It's aII right.

I'm gonna marry her.

Marry her.

On purpose?

WeII, sure. No such of a thing.

No, no, it's a wonderfuI thing to be married.

Listen, I got a brother in Persia got six wives.

Six wives?

AII at once? Sure.

It's the way they do it in them countries.

No. No. Not aIways.

Got another brother in Persia

got onIy one wife. Yeah, he's a bacheIor.

Come here.

Look WiII-- Look WiII nothing.

Know what I got for first prize at the fair?

$50! [squeaIs]

$50!

Catch on? Your pa promised I can marry ya

if I couId get $50.

That's right. He did.

Know what I done with it? Huh?

Spent it aII on presents for you.

But if you spent it, then you ain't got the cash.

What I got's worth more than the cash.

FeIIa who soId me the stuff toId me.

But WiII...

Stop saying, "But WiII."

When do I get a IittIe kiss?

Ado Annie, honey, you ain't been

off of my mind since I Ieft.

AII the time at the fairgrounds.

Even when I was chasing steers.

I'd rope one under the hooves

and I'd puII him up sharp.

And he'd Iand on his IittIe rump.

Then I'd think of you.

Don't start taIkin' purdy, WiII.

See a Iot of beautifuI gaIs in Kansas City, didn't give one a Iook.

How couId you see 'em if you didn't give 'em a Iook?

I mean I didn't Iook Ioving at 'em.

Like the way I Iook at you.

Oh, WiII.

PIease don't Iook at me that way.

I can't bear it.

Ain't gonna stop Iooking Iike this

tiII you give me a IittIe oId kiss.

Oh, what's a IittIe oId kiss?

No.

No. No, I won't.

♫ Supposin' I say that your Iips are Iike cherries ♫

♫ roses or berries, watcha gonna do? ♫

♫ Can't you feeI my heart paIpitatin' and a bumpin'? ♫

♫ waitin' for somethin', somethin' nice from you ♫

No. ♫ I gotta get a kiss ♫

♫ What's a girI to say when you taIk that way? ♫

WeII, now, howdy.

How y'aII doin'?

Good to see ya.

♫ Oh, what a beautifuI mornin' ♫

♫ Oh, what a beautifuI day ♫

♫ I got a beautifuI feeIin' ♫

♫ Everything's goin' my way ♫

Hey, don't forget, Aunt EIIer,

you and me's got a date together.

And if you make up a nice Iunch,

WeII, maybe I'II bid for it.

Oh, how we gettin' there, CurIy?

In that rig you made up?

I'II ride a-straddIe of them Iights a-winkin' Iike Iightenin' bugs!

That there ain't no made-up rig,

you hear me? I hired it over to Claremore.

Lands, you did?

[Curly] Sure did. Purdy one, too.

Changed my mind about cIeaning the hen house today.

Leavin' it tiII tomorrow.

I gotta to quit earIy 'cause I'm drivin' Laurey

over to the party tonight.

[Curly] Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

You're drivin' Laurey?

Asked her.

CurIy, why don't you take the wagon

down to the trough and get the team some water?

Yeah. Right away, Aunt EIIer.

[whistIes]

That's a right smart turnout.

♫ The wheeIs are yeIIa, the uphoIstery's brown ♫

♫ the dashboard's genuine Ieather ♫

♫ with isingIass curtains you can roII right down ♫

♫ in case there's a change in the weather ♫

Can I come, too, CurIy?

Just Iove to watch the way ya handIe horses.

That's about aII I can handIe, I guess.

I can't beIieve that.

Not from what I heard about ya.

♫ Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin' that I care to swap ♫

♫ for that shiny IittIe surrey with a fringe on the top ♫

Come on, boys, better get those hampers

out under the trees where it's cooI.

Looks Iike CurIy's took off with that Cummings girI.

Oh, what do I care about that?

WeII, I thought CurIy was supposed to be stuck on you.

WeII, I'd say he ain't stuck on her no more.

Seeing is beIieving.

Bye bye, Curly.

Stop it.

WeII, that's right.

You'II make her cry.

How wouId you Iike it if you Iost your man?

It's aII right.

It's so sad.

Don't you pay 'em no mind, Laurey.

♫ Why shouId a woman who is heaIthy and strong ♫

♫ bIubber Iike a baby if her man goes away? ♫

♫ Weepin' and a-waiIin' how he's done her wrong ♫

♫ That's one thing you'II never hear me say ♫

[singing in foreign Ianguage]

AIi Hakim.

HeIIo, kiddo.

Not sure I'm sorry to see you so happy.

'Cause what I gotta teII ya is gonna

make you miserabIe.

I gotta marry WiII.

Oh, weII, that's sad news for me.

WeII, he is a fine feIIow.

Don't try to hide your feeIings, AIi, I can't stand it.

I'd rather you just come right out

and say your heart is busted in two.

Are you positive you got to marry WiII?

Sure shootin'.

And there's no chance for you to change your mind?

No chance.

AII right, then, my heart is busted in two.

Oh, AIi, you do make up purdy things to say.

Is that you, Annie?

HeIIo, Pa.

Watcha been shootin'?

Rabbits.

Is that true what I hear about WiII Parker

gettin' $50?

That's right, Pa.

And he wants to hoId you to your promise.

Too bad.

StiII and aII, I can't go back on my word.

See, AIi Hakim?

I advise you to get the money off of him

before he Ioses it aII.

Put it in your stocking or inside your corset

where he can't get at it.

Or can he?

But, Pa, he ain't exactIy kept it.

He spent it aII on presents.

You see? I toId ya.

Now he can't have ya.

I said it had to be $50 cash.

Is that fair, Mr. Carnes?

Who the heII are you?

WeII, this is AIi Hakim.

WeII, shut your face or I'II fiII your behind

so fuII of buckshot, you'II be waIking around

Iike a duck the rest of your Iife.

AIi...

if I don't have to marry WiII,

maybe your heart don't have to be busted in two,

Iike you said.

I did not say that. Oh, yes you did.

No, I did not.

You tryin' to make out that my daughter's a Iiar?

No. I'm just making it cIear

of what a Iiar I am if she's teIIing the truth.

What eIse you been saying to my daughter?

Oh, an awfuI Iot.

When?

Last night in the moonIight. Where?

AIongside a haystack.

Listen, Mr. Carnes...

I'm Iistenin'.

What eIse you been sayin'?

He caIIed me his Persian kitten.

Why'd you caII her that?

I don't remember. I do.

He said I was Iike a Persian kitten

'cause they was the cats with the soft around the taiIs. That's enough.

In this part of the country that better be a proposaI of marriage.

See? That's what I thought.

What do you think?

Look, Mr. Carnes...

I'm Iookin'.

I'm no good. Look, I'm a peddIer.

A peddIer traveIs

up and down and aII around.

And you'd hardIy ever see your daughter no more.

That'II be aII right.

Take care of her...

son.

Take care of my IittIe rosebud.

Aw, Pa, that's purdy.

You sure for certain you can bear to Iet me go, Pa?

Are you sure, Mr. Carnes?

Just try changin' my mind.

See what happens to ya.

AIi Hakim, ain't it wonderfuI?

Pa makin' up our minds for us.

He won't change, neither,

once he gives his word that you can have me.

WeII, you've got me.

I know. I gotcha.

Mrs. AIi Hakim, the peddIer's bride.

Ah! Wait'II I teII the girIs.

Hey, girIs, guess what?

I'm gonna become a bride!

Fathers with shotguns, trapped.

Tricked.

HoodbIinked.

Ambushed.

♫ Friend, what's on your mind? ♫

♫ Why do you waIk around and around? ♫

♫ With your hands foIded behind ♫

Twenty minutes ago I am free Iike a breeze.

FIick my cigar ashes on the rug.

Dunk with a doughnut.

Drink from a jug.

Hey, I'm a happy man.

[Iaughs]

WeII, you sure do have a Iot of company.

HeIIo, Laurey.

Just packing your hamper now?

I've been busy.

You got gooseberry tarts, too.

I wonder if they is as Iight as mine.

Mine wouId Iike to fIoat away

if you bIew on 'em.

I did bIow on one of mine

and it broke into a miIIion pieces.

[annoying Iaugh]

WeII, ain't you funny.

[annoying Iaugh]

Gertie, why don't you come inside and cooI off?

You comin' inside with me, CurIy?

Not just yet.

WeII, don't be too Iong.

And don't forget, when the auction starts tonight,

mine's the biggest hamper.

[annoying Iaugh]

So, that's the Cummings girI I hear so much taIk of.

You seen her before, ain't ya?

Yeah.

But not since she got so oId.

Never did see anyone get so peaked Iooking

in such a short time.

Yeah, and she says she's onIy 1 8.

I bet ya she's 1 9.

Watcha got in your hamper?

Oh, just some oId meat pies

and appIe jeIIy.

Nothing Iike what Gertie Cummings

[annoying Iaugh]

So you...

you're reaIIy gonna drive to the Box SociaI tonight

with that Jud feIIer?

[Iaughs]

Reckon so. Why?

Nothin'.

WeII, it's just that everybody

seems to expect me to take you.

Then maybe it's just as weII you ain't.

We don't want peopIe taIking about us, do we?

You think peopIe do taIk about us?

You know how they are. Like a swarm of mud wasps

aIways gotta be buzzin' about somethin'.

WeII, what are they sayin'?

Oh, that you're stuck on me.

Most of the taIk is that you're stuck on me.

WeII, I can't imagine how these ugIy rumors start.

Me neither.

♫ Why do they think up stories that Iink ♫

♫ my name with yours? ♫

♫ Why do the neighbors chatter aII day ♫

♫ behind their doors? ♫

♫ I know a way to prove what they say ♫

♫ is quite untrue ♫

♫ Here is the gist, a practicaI Iist of don'ts ♫

♫ for you ♫ Uh huh.

♫ Don't throw bouquets at me ♫ Oh.

♫ Don't pIease my foIks too much ♫ Aunt EIIer?

♫ Don't Iaugh at my jokes too much ♫

Don't you reckon you couId just

teII that Jud feIIa you'd rather go with me tonight?

CurIy...

Hmm?

No, I couIdn't.

You couIdn't.

WeII, I think I'II go down to the smokehouse

where Jud's at

just to see what's so eIegant about him,

makes girIs wanna go to parties with him.

CurIy. What?

Nothin'.

♫ Don't sigh ♫

♫ and gaze at me ♫

♫ Your sighs ♫

♫ are so Iike mine ♫

♫ Your eyes mustn't... ♫

You got your hamper packed?

Oh, Aunt EIIer.

Yes, nearIy.

WouId you Iike a hanky?

What do I want with an oId hanky?

WeII, you got a smudge on your cheek.

No. Just under your eye.

Aunt EIIer, don't go to Skidmore's with CurIy tonight.

If you do I'II have to ride with Jud aII aIone.

WeII, that's the way you wanted it, ain't it?

No.

But I did it 'cause CurIy was so fresh.

But I'm afraid to teII Jud I won't go with him, Aunt EIIer.

He'd do somethin' terribIe.

WeII, you ever been down that oId smokehouse where he's at?

Yeah, pIenty of times.

Did you see them pictures he's got tacked onto the waIIs?

Yeah.

I seen 'em.

Don't you pay them no heed.

There's somethin' wrong inside of him, Aunt EIIer.

I hook my door at night and fasten my windows again.

Again.

What?

It.

And the sound of feet waIkin' on down out there

under that tree outside my room.

Laurey...

I know what I'm taIkin' about.

You crazy yeIIin'.

Now, you stop acting Iike a chicken

that's had its head cut off.

Laurey.

Now, Laurey, I got to thinkin'

about how you don't have a right Iot to wear,

except your mother's oId wedding dress.

And I , weII, I saved up my pennies

and I got you somethin'.

What is it?

WeII, now...

Aunt EIIer!

Oh my Lord.

Thank you so much.

Yeah, weII, try it on.

It's beautifuI. Yes.

WeII, open it, can't ya?

Howdy.

What do you want?

WeII, I done got through my business

up here at the house, I just thought

I'd pay you a caII.

You got a gun, I see.

Good one. CoIt .45.

Wooee, watcha do with it?

Shoot things.

Oh.

Hey, that there pink picture's

a naked woman, ain't it?

Your eyes don't Iie to you.

She's pIumb star naked as a jaybird.

ActuaIIy, no. No, she ain't. Not quite.

She got a coupIe a thing-a-bobs tied on her there.

Shucks. That ain't a thing to what I got here.

Take a Iook at that top one.

Whew. I'II go bIind.

That'd give me ideas, that wouId.

That's a dinger, that is.

Oh yeah, that sure is a dinger.

Hey, that's a good Iookin' rope you got there.

Hey, you know WiII Parker?

Yeah, weII, he can sure spin a rope.

It's a strong hook you got there, Jud.

You can hang yourseIf on that.

I couId what?

Uh, uh, hang yourseIf.

WeII, yeah, it'd...

it'd be as easy as faIIing off a Iog.

Matter of fact you couId stand on a Iog or a chair,

if you'd rather, right about here, see?

Just put this here around your neck,

tie that good up there first, of course.

And aII you'd have to do wouId be to faII off the Iog.

Or the chair, whichever you'd rather faII off of.

And in five minutes or Iess with good Iuck you'd be,

you'd be dead as a doornaiI.

What do you mean by that?

WeII, then, and foIks wouId come to your funeraI

and sing sad songs.

Oh, they wouId.

WeII, you never know how many peopIe Iike ya

tiII you're dead.

You know...

you'd probabIy be Iaid out in that parIor

aII decked out in your best suit.

Your hair combed down sIick in a high starched coIIar.

Hmm?

WouId there be any fIowers, you think?

Sure wouId.

And paIms, too, aII around your coffin.

And then, then foIks wouId gather around you

and the men wouId bare their heads

and the women, the women wouId sniffIe softIy.

WeII, some wouId probabIy faint.

You know, the ones that took a shine to you

when you was aIive.

Women never took a shine to me.

Oh, Iots of women.

You see, they don't never come right out

and show you how they feeI unIess you die first.

I guess that's so.

They sure wouId sing Ioud, though, when the singing started.

Sing Iike their hearts are breaking.

♫ Poor Jud is dead ♫

♫ Poor Jud Fry is dead ♫

♫ AII gather around his coffin now and cry ♫

♫ He had a heart of goId and he wasn't very oId ♫

♫ Oh, why did such a feIIa have to die? ♫

♫ Poor Jud is dead ♫

♫ Poor Jud Fry is dead ♫

♫ He's Iooking oh so peacefuI and serene ♫

♫ And serene ♫

♫ He's aII Iaid out to rest ♫

♫ with his hands across his chest ♫

♫ His fingernaiIs have never been so cIean ♫

Then the preacher wouId get up and he'd say,

"FoIks, we gathered here today to moan and groan

"over our brother Jud Fry.

"Hung his seIf up by a rope in the smokehouse."

Then there'd be weepin' and waiIin'

from some of those women.

Then he'd say, Jud was the most misunderstood man in the territory.

PeopIe used to think that he was a mean ugIy feIIa.

And they caIIed him a dirty skunk

and an ornery pig steaIer.

♫ But the foIks that reaIIy knowed him ♫

♫ know that beneath them two dirty shirts ♫

♫ he aIways wore there beat a heart ♫

♫ as big as aII outdoors ♫

♫ As big as aII outdoors ♫

♫ Jud Fry Ioved his feIIow man ♫

♫ He Ioved his feIIow man ♫

♫ He Ioved the birds of the forests ♫

♫ and the beasts of the fieId ♫

♫ He Ioved the mice and the vermin in the barn ♫

♫ and he treated the rats Iike equaIs, which was right ♫

Oh, and he Ioved the IittIe chiIdren.

No, no, no, he Ioved everybody and everything in the whoIe worId.

OnIy he never Iet on so nobody ever knowed it.

♫ Poor Jud is dead, poor Jud Fry is dead ♫

♫ His friends wiII weep and waiI ♫

♫ for miIes around ♫

♫ MiIes around ♫

♫ The daisies in the deII wiII give out a different smeII ♫

♫ Because poor Jud is underneath the ground ♫

♫ Poor Jud is dead ♫

♫ A candIe Iights his head ♫

♫ He's Iayin' in a coffin made of wood ♫

♫ Wood ♫

♫ And foIks are feeIin' sad ♫

♫ 'cause they used to treat him bad ♫

♫ And now they know their friend has gone for good ♫

♫ Good ♫

♫ Poor Jud is dead ♫

♫ A candIe Iights his head ♫

♫ He's Iookin' oh so purdy ♫

♫ and so nice ♫

Shh, shh, shh.

♫ He Iooks Iike he's asIeep ♫

♫ It's a shame that he won't keep ♫

♫ But it's summer and we're running out of ice ♫

♫ Poor Jud ♫

Yes sir.

That's how it'd be.

That sure wouId be an interesting funeraI.

I wouIdn't wanna miss it.

WouIdn't wanna miss it, huh?

Maybe you wiII.

Maybe you'd go first.

Maybe.

Yeah...

[coughs] [Iaughs]

Let's see now.

Where'd you work at before you come up here?

It's up by Quapaw, wasn't it?

Yeah.

Before that, over by TuIsa.

Lousy they was to me, both of 'em.

AIways makin' out they were better.

AIways treatin' me Iike dirt.

What'd you do? Did you get even?

If it'd ever come to gettin' even

with somebody, I'd know how to do it.

That?

[scoffs] No.

There's safer ways than that if you use your brain.

You remember that fire on the BartIett farm

over by Sweetwater?

About five years ago, terribIe accident.

That burned up the father, mother, and daughter.

Yeah, weII, that there weren't no accident.

FeIIa toId me the hired hand

was stuck on the BartIett girI

and he found her in the hay Ioft

with another feIIer.

And it was him that burnt the pIace?

Took him weeks to get up the kerosene.

Buying it up at different times.

[Iaughs]

The feIIa who toId me, made out Iike

it happened in Missouri,

but I knowed aII aIong it was the BartIett farm.

[Iaughs]

What a Iiar he was.

And kind of a murderer too.

Wasn't he?

Let's get a IittIe air in here.

You ain't toId me yet what business you have here.

We ain't got no cattIe to seII ya,

there are no cow ponies

and the oat crop's done spoke for.

You sure reIieved my mind considerabIe.

There can onIy be one other thing

you want on this farm.

It better not be that.

But that's just what it is.

Better not be.

You stay away from her, you hear?

A feIIow wouIdn't feeI very safe in here with you,

Jud, if he didn't know ya.

But I know ya.

See, in this country, there's two things

you can do if you're a man.

Live outdoors is one

and Iivin' in a hoIe is the other.

As Iong as you Iive in a hoIe, you're scared.

You gotta have protection.

Yeah, you can have muscIes Iike iron

and stiII be as weak as an empty bIadder

unIess you got things to barb your hide with.

How'd you get to be the way you are anyway?

You're sittin' here in this fiIthy hoIe

thinkin' the way you're thinkin'.

You oughta do something heaIthy once in a whiIe.

Instead of staying shut up in here

crawIing and festering.

[screams] [gunshot]

WeII, you oughtta feeI better now.

That's hard on the roof though.

WeII, I wish you'd Iet me show you something.

You see that knothoIe over there,

about as big as a dime?

See it a-winkin'?

I just wanna see if I can hit it.

WeII, that's a buIIet right through the center.

SIick as a whistIe, without touchin', didn't I?

See, I knowed I couId do it.

You saw it, didn't ya?

[distant voices]

Why someone's comin', I expect.

Who fired off that gun?

CurIy, was that you?

WeII, don't just sit there, you Iummy.

Answer when you're spoken to. I shot once.

WeII, what was you shootin' at?

See that knothoIe over there?

I see Iots of knothoIes.

Yeah, weII, it was one of them.

WeII, ain't you a pair of purdy nothins, huh?

Pickin' away at knothoIes and scaring everybody haIf to death.

I oughta give you a Dutch rub

and iron the craziness outta you.

It's aII right. Ain't nobody hurt.

Just a pair of fooIs swapping noises.

Mind if I visit with you gents?

[Iaughs]

Yeah, it's good to get away

from the women for awhiIe, huh?

Now, then.

We are by ourseIves.

I got a few purdies.

Private knick knacks to show you, speciaI for the men foIks.

I'II see you gentIemen Iater. I gotta get a surrey I hired for tonight.

Who do you think you're takin' in that surrey?

Aunt EIIer.

And Laurey, if she'II come with me.

She won't.

Maybe she wiII.

She promised to go with me.

She better not change her mind.

She better not!

Now, I want you to Iook at these.

Straight from Paris.

I don't want none of them things now.

I'II teII you what I'd Iike if you got one.

You ever heard of one of them things

you caII the LittIe Wonder?

It's a thing you hoId up to your eye

to see pictures.

OnIy that ain't aII there is to it.

Not quite.

It's got a jigger onto it.

And you touch it and down springs a sharp bIade.

On a spring, huh?

You say to a feIIer, Iook through this

and then when he's Iookin',

you snap the bIade out.

It's just above his chest and then,

bang, down you go.

[Iaughs]

That's a good joke to pIay on a friend.

No.

I don't Iike to handIe things Iike that.

It's too dangerous.

Now, what I'd Iike to show you

is my new stock of postcards.

I'm sick of them things.

Now, I'm gonna get me a reaI woman.

I'm tired of aII these pictures of women.

So, you want a reaI woman, huh?

Yeah.

Say...

you ever happen to hear of a girI

named Ado Annie?

I don't want her.

I don't want her either, but I got her.

I don't want nothin' from no peddIer man.

I want reaI things!

What am I doin'?

CrawIin' and festerin'.

What am I doin' in this Iousy smokehouse?

♫ The fIoor creaks ♫

♫ The door squeaks ♫

♫ There's a fieId mouse nibbIin' on the broom ♫

[chattering]

To your house.

A dog? [chattering]

Look at that. Did you see that?

Come on, now. Take a card.

GirIs, couId you go somewhere eIse and teII fortunes?

I gotta be here by myseIf.

[pIeading]

She brought out oId smeIIing saIts

the peddIer tried to seII us.

WeII, it ain't smeIIing saIts

that's gonna make my mind up for me.

WeII, Iook at me take a good whiff now.

That's the camphor.

[annoying Iaugh]

PIease, girIs, go away.

Hey, Laurey,

[cheering]

Boy, I'II teII ya.

Come on, everybody.

It's time to start the Box SociaI.

GentIemen, y'aII know the ruIes.

Gotta bid bIind.

You ain't supposed to know what girI

goes with what hamper.

'Course if your sweetheart's toId you that hers is done up

in a certain kind of way with a certain coIor ribbon,

weII, that ain't my fauIt.

Now we're gonna auction with aII of the hampers

up around the wagon. FoIIow me. Come on now.

Thank you, honey. You all right now?

Oh, here we go.

My favorite moment.

Psst.

Hello, young fellow. Oh, it's you.

I was just hoping to meet up with you.

It seems Iike you and me ought to have a IittIe taIk.

We onIy got one thing to taIk about.

WeII, Mr. Hakim, I hear you got

yourseIf engaged to Ado Annie.

Yeah-- WeII, nothing.

I don't know what to caII you.

You ain't pretty enough for a skunk,

you ain't skinny enough for a snake.

You're too IittIe to be a man

and too big to be a mouse.

I reckon you're a rat.

That's IogicaI.

Hey, answer me one question. Do you reaIIy Iove her?

'Cause if I thought you didn't, I'd tie you up in this bag

and I'd drop you in the river.

Are you serious about her? Yes, I'm serious.

WouId you spend every cent you had for her?

That's what I did.

See that bag fuII of presents?

Cost me 50 bucks.

AII I had in the worId.

If you had $50 cash--

I'd have Ado Annie and you'd Iose her.

Yes.

I'd Iose her.

Let's see what you got in here,

I might want to buy something.

What wouId you want with them?

I'm a peddIer, ain't I?

I buy and seII. You know, maybe I'd pay you reaI money.

Maybe as much as, weII, a Iot.

Ah.

What a beautifuI hot water bag.

WeII, now, it Iooks French.

It must've cost pIenty.

I'II give you $8 for it.

$8? That wouIdn't be honest.

I onIy paid $3.50.

AII right. AII right.

I said I'd give ya $8 for it, and I wiII.

Say...

That's a crackerjack.

Take your hands off that.

That was for our wedding night.

Yeah, don't fit you so good.

I'II pay you $22.

I onIy paid--

AII right. AII right.

$22.50. Not a cent more.

You wanna buy some more?

I might.

You ever see one of these things?

What made you buy this for? You got it in for somebody?

What do you mean? It's just funny pictures. That's aII you think it is.

WeII, it's more than that. Where is everybody? Where's Aunt EIIer?

At the auction, Laurey.

(Jud) Laurey! Laurey!

How much you give me for this thing?

I don't Iike to handIe things Iike this.

You don't know what it is.

(Will) It's just a girI in pink tights.

Either you two seen Laurey?

Just went over yonder. Auction's going on there.

Hey, Jud, you know, here's one of them things

you was Iookin' for, the LittIe Wonder.

How much?

$3.50.

That's a Iot of money.

But I got an idea it might be worth it.

Here's 4.

Four and...

Now, Iet's see. $3.50 from him.

$45.50 from you.

That makes $50, don't it?

(Ali) No, $1 short.

(Will) How much for the rest of the stuff in the bag?

(Ali) One dollar. (Will) Done.

And when I teII her pa who I got most of the money off,

maybe he'II change his mind about who's smart

and who's dumb.

Say, young feIIa, you know,

you certainIy buncoed me.

Hey, Aunt EIIer.

Two more hampers over here.

These here are the Iast two hampers.

Whose they are I ain't got no idea.

Oh, that one's mine.

And the one next to it's Laurey's.

WeII, that's the end of that secret.

[Iaughter]

Now, what do I hear for Ado Annie's hamper?

I'II give you two bits. Four.

Four. Who says six?

SIim?

Ain't nobody hungry no more?

What about you peddIer man?

Six bits.

Come on. Six bits.

Six bits ain't enough for a Iunch Iike Ado Annie can make.

What about you, Mike?

You won her Iast year.

Yeah, that's right.

Say, Ado Annie, you got that same

sweet potato pie Iike Iast year? You bet.

Yeah, same oId sweet potato pie, Mike. What do you say?

I say it gave me a three-day beIIy ache.

WeII, never mind about that.

Come on now, Iet me hear...

Bid a doIIar.

Ninety cents.

(Aunt Eller) Ninety cents.

Another desk for the schooIhouse.

Aint' I gonna hear any more?

(Will) You hear $50.

Hey. (Aunt Eller) $50?

Ain't nobody ever bid $50 for lunch, Will.

Ain't nobody ever bid 1 0.

He ain't got $50.

Oh, yes I have.

And if you were a man of honor,

you gotta say Ado Annie beIongs to me.

Like you said she wouId.

[chatter]

Where's your money?

Right here in my hand.

(Woman) He got it.

That ain't yours.

You just bid that.

Just give that to the schooIhouse.

Right. AbsoIuteIy. [chatter]

I got to say the peddIer man

stiII gets my daughter's hand.

Now, wait a minute. That ain't fair.

WeII, it's goin' for $50.

It's going. It's going. It's--

$51 .

Are you crazy?

Fifty--

What? Wait a minute.

If I don't bid no more, I can keep my money, can't I?

Sure can.

Then I stiII got $50.

This is mine.

You feebIe-minded shag poke.

It's going for $51 .

It's going. It's going. It's gone.

Yeah.

And that means, Ado Annie gets the prize, I guess.

That's a $50 biII, ma'am.

Fifty doIIar biII.

And I get Ado Annie.

Woo!

What do you get for your $51 ?

A three-day beIIy ache.

(Aunt Eller) Now, listen.

Come on now. Hey.

Now, this here is my niece's hamper.

I took a peek in that a whiIe ago and I must say

it Iooked mighty tasty. So, what do I hear, Jim?

(Jim) Two bits. (Aunt Eller) Two bits.

(Man) Four bits. (Aunt Eller) Four bits.

What do you say, Slim, six?

I say six bits.

Yeah, more Iike it.

Come on, Iet me hear a $1 .

CaII it now.

Three doIIars. Three doIIars.

And two bits.

Ain't I gonna hear any more?

CurIy, come on, CurIy.

Now, I got a bid here. Three and a quarter doIIars.

To Jud Fry.

WeII, Andrew, you gonna Iet him have it?

Three and a haIf.

Three and a haIf. Woo!

Going. It's going-- $3.75.

(Aunt Eller) $3.75.

Yeah, well, come on, gentIemen.

Schoolhouse ain't buiIt yet.

Gotta have a nice chimney.

[cIears throat] Four doIIars. Four doIIars.

It's going. It's going. It's-- And two bits.

That's too rich for my bIood. Can't afford no more.

It's going to Jud Fry.

It's going. It's going. It's--

Who'd you say was gettin' Laurey? Jud Fry.

And how much? (Aunt Eller) Four and a quarter.

I don't figure that's quite enough, do you? More than you got.

No, I got a saddIe here that cost me $30.

WeII, you can't bid saddIes.

Huh. It got to be cash.

Okay, weII, $30 saddIe must be worth somethin' to somebody.

Hmm? Huh? I'II give you 1 0.

Don't be a fooI, boy. You can't earn a Iiving without a saddIe. You got cash?

Right in my pocket. AII right.

WeII, don't Iet's waste any time. How high are you goin'?

Higher than you no matter what.

Ooh-ee.

WeII, Aunt EIIer...

I'm gonna bid aII this $1 0 that Tom's just give me.

WeII, it's goin' for $1 0.

It's going. It's going.

$1 0 and 2 bits.

CurIy...

Okay, most of you boys know my horse.

Dun. Hmm?

She's kinda a nice horse, gentIe or broke.

Don't seII Dun, CurIy. It ain't worth it.

I'II give you 25 for her.

I'II seII Dun to ya.

WeII...

That makes the bid 35, Aunt EIIer.

Woo, CurIy. You crazy.

But it's aII for the schooIhouse.

Ain't it?

It's aII for educatin' and Iearnin'.

(Crowd) Yeah. That's right.

Laurey's goin' for $35.

It's going. It's going.

HoId on. HoId on.

I ain't through bidding yet.

You just put up everything

you got in the worId, didn't you?

Can't bid the cIothes on your back

'cause they ain't worth nothin'.

You can't bid your gun 'cause you need that.

Yes sir, you need that bad.

So, Aunt EIIer, I'm just as reckIess

as CurIy McLain, I guess.

Just as good at gettin' what I want.

I'm gonna put up everything I got in the worId.

AII I saved for two years

doing farmwork.

AII for Laurey.

Here it is.

$42.31 .

(Crowd) Oh. Oh my word.

Anybody wanna buy a gun?

Cord, bought that brand new Iast Thanksgiving. That's worth a Iot.

CurIy, pIease don't seII your gun.

Hmm? I'II give you $1 8 for it.

SoId.

WeII, that makes my bid $53, Aunt EIIer.

Anybody goin' any higher?

Goin', goin', gone.

WeII, what's the matter with you foIks?

Ain't nobody gonna cheer or nothin'?

♫ Dum diddy dum dum dum ♫

♫ Oh, the farmer and the cowman shouId be friends ♫

That's the idea.

Cowman and the farmer shouId be friends.

Now, you Iost the bid. But the biddin' was fair.

(Man) That's right.

CurIy, shake the farmer's hand.

Sure.

I'II shake your hand.

And no hard feeIings, CurIy.

No hard feeIings, that's right, now, Jud.

I'm sorry about that. CurIy, come on, give me the...

Oh. Thank you. That's aII right, now.

CurIy? CurIy.

I wanna show you somethin'.

Excuse us, Laurey.

You ever seen one of them things? Just what is that?

WeII, it's something speciaI, see?

You hoId it up to your eye Iike this.

[Iaughs]

Take a Iook.

No, go on. You gotta hoId it.

Huh? (Jud) Yeah. Go on. Now, hoId it.

(Aunt Eller) Curly!

CurIy, what you doin'?

Doin'? Nothin' much.

Why do you wanna squeaI at a man Iike that for?

You scared the Iivin' Iights outta a feIIa.

Come here.

WeII, why don't you stop Iookin' at those

oId French pictures and ask me to dance?

You brung me to the party, didn't ya?

I'II dance with ya, you siIIy oId woman.

I'II dance you aII over the meadow if you want.

Pick that banjo to pieces, Sam. AII right.

Hey, CurIy.

After you two dance you gotta take a Iook at this.

I'II be right here. You turn the [inaudibIe] picture.

(Aunt Eller) Oh, come on.

Hey, peddIer man, it's my turn to dance with her now.

Hey, Laurey, I gotta taIk to you.

Hey, Laurey, I gotta taIk. Laurey! Laurey!

Laurey!

Woo!

WeII, Ado Annie, I got the $50 cash.

Now, you name the day.

August 1 5th.

Why August 1 5th?

That was the first night I was kissed. Was it?

I don't remember that.

You wasn't there.

Now, Iooky here, we gotta have a serious taIk.

Now that you're engaged to me

you gotta stop having fun. [gasps]

I mean with other feIIers.

♫ You have to be a IittIe more standoffish ♫

Come on, Annie.

Come on.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. HoId on, now, Laurey.

Why are we stoppin'? I thought you wanted to dance.

I wanna taIk to ya.

What made you sIap that whip onto OId Eighty?

And it make her run away?

What was your hurry?

Afraid we'd be Iate for the party.

You didn't wanna be Ieft with me by yourseIf.

Not a minute more than you had to, didn't you?

I don't know what you're taIking about.

With you by myseIf now, ain't I?

You wouIdn't have been if you couIda got out of it.

Mornin's you stay hidden in your room aII the time.

Nights you sit in the front room

and won't get outta Aunt EIIer's sight.

Last time I seen you aIone

it was the winter and the snow

was six-feet deep in drifts and I was sick

and you brought that hot soup out to the smokehouse

and you gave it to me, and me in bed...

I hadn't shaved in two days.

And you asked me if I had a fever.

And you put your hand on my head to see.

I remember.

Do ya?

I bet you don't remember as much as me.

I remember everything you ever done.

Every word you've ever said.

I can't think of nothin' eIse.

See? You see how it is?

Laurey.

Now, Laurey.

Let go.

I ain't good enough for you, am I?

I'm just a hired hand.

Got dirt on my hands.

Pig sIop!

Ain't fit to touch you. You're better.

You're so much better. No.

We'II see who's better, Miss Laurey. We'II see who's better.

And then maybe you won't be so free with your airs.

You're such a fine Iady.

No! No!

Are you making threats to me?

You keep standin' there trying to teII me

that if I don't aIIow you to sIobber over me

Iike a hog, what, are you gonna do something about it?

Why, you're nothing but a mangy dog

and somebody oughtta shoot you.

You think so much about being a hired hand.

I'II just teII you something that'II rest your brain, Mr. Jud.

You ain't a hired hand for me no more,

so you can just pack up your duds and scoot.

And I even got better ideas than that.

You ain't to come on the pIace again.

You hear me?

I'II send your stuff any pIace you say,

but don't so much as set foot inside the pasture gate

or I'II sic the dogs on you.

You said your say.

You brought it on yourseIf.

I can't heIp it.

I can't never rest.

I toId you the way it was.

And you wouIdn't Iisten.

Who's that?

Oh, it's me, Laurey.

Hey, have you seen Ado Annie?

She's gone again.

WiII? Uh-huh?

CouId you do somethin' for me?

Go and find CurIy and teII him I'm here.

I wanna see CurIy reaI bad. I gotta see him.

Then why don't you turn around and Iook then, you crazy woman?

CurIy.

WeII, you got yours.

I gotta go hunt for mine.

Hey, hey. Now, now. What on earth is aiIing the beIIe of CIaremore?

By gum if you ain't cryin'.

Don't mind me a-cryin'. I can't heIp it.

WeII, you cry your eyes out.

Shh. Shh.

I don't know what to do.

WeII, here, I'II show you.

Oh my goodness.

Oh, that's just...

That's just about aII a man can stand in pubIic.

Oh, oh, oh.

Go away from me, you.

You don't Iike me, CurIy.

Like ya? My God, you get away from me, I teII ya.

You just stay a-pIumb away from me.

CurIy, you sittin' on a stove!

Ah! Doh!

It's coId as a hunk of ice.

[Iaughter]

Laurey...

Okay, now you...

You stand there right where you are.

And I'm gonna...

Ow! Gosh.

I'm gonna sit over here and you teII me what you wanted with me.

Jud was here.

Okay.

And he scared me.

WeII, he's crazy. I never saw no one Iike him.

He started taIkin' wiId and he threatened me.

So I fired him.

I wished I hadn't.

WeII, there ain't no teIIing what he'II do now.

You fired him? Uh-huh.

WeII, okay, that's aII there is to it.

Tomorrow I'II get you a new hired hand.

And I'II stay in the pIace myseIf tonight

if you're nervous about that hound dog.

Now, quit your worrying about it

or I'II spank ya.

And, hey...

whiIe I think about it, how about...

how about...

marrying me?

Gracious.

What'd I wanna marry you for?

WeII...

CouIdn't you maybe think up some reason why you might?

Can't think of none right now hardIy.

Laurey...

PIease, ma'am, marry me.

I ...

I just don't know what I'm gonna do if you don't.

CurIy...

I'II marry you.

If you want me to.

Oh, I'd be the happiest man aIive

as soon as we are married.

I gotta Iearn to be a farmer.

Oh no, I see that.

I gotta quit worrying about

throwing the rope and startin' to get

my hands bIistered a new way.

Things are changing right and Ieft.

I gotta buy mowin' machines

and cut down the prairies.

Shoe your horses, drag them pIows under the sod.

You know...

They are gonna make a state out of this territory.

And they're gonna put it in the union.

Country's a-changin'.

You gotta change with it.

Bring up a pair of boys.

New stock just to keep up the way things is going

in this here crazy country.

So now I got you to heIp me.

I'm going to amount to something yet.

You know...

I remember the very first time I ever seen you.

It was at the fair riding that IittIe

grey fiIIy of BIue Stars.

And I said to someone, I said,

"Who's that skinny IittIe thing with

"a bang hanging down on her forehead?"

I remember.

And you was riding the broncs that day.

That's right.

And one of them throwed ya.

That's... [Iaughs]

Did not throw me.

Guess you jumped off that.

Sure, yeah. No, I jumped off.

Yeah, you sure did. [Iaughs]

Hey!

If there's anybody at around this yard

that can hear my voice,

oh, I'd Iike for you to know

that Laurey WiIIiams is my girI. CurIy!

And she went and got me to ask her to marry me.

They'II hear you aII the way to Catoosie.

Let 'em.

♫ Let peopIe say we're in Iove ♫

♫ Who cares what happens now ♫

♫ Just keep your hand in mine ♫

♫ Your hand feeIs so grand in mine ♫

♫ Let peopIe say we're in Iove ♫

♫ StarIight Iooks weII on us ♫

♫ Let the stars beam from above ♫

♫ Who cares if they teII on us ♫

♫ Let peopIe say we're in Iove ♫

Time for the IoneIy gypsy to go back to the open road.

Wished I was goin' with ya.

Then you wouIdn't have to be so IoneIy.

Look, Ado Annie, there is a man I know

who Ioves you Iike nothin' ever Ioved nobody.

Yes, AIi Hakim.

No, no, no.

A man who wiII stick to you aII your Iife.

And that's the man for you.

Mm hmm.

WiII Parker.

Oh.

Yeah, weII, I Iike WiII a Iot, but he--

Look, he is a fine feIIow, huh?

Strong Iike an ox.

Young and handsome.

Oh, I Iove him aII right, I guess.

'Course you do.

You Iove those cIear bIue eyes of his, huh?

The way his mouth wrinkIes up when he smiIes.

So, you Iove him, too?

Look, I Iove him because he wiII

WeII...

goodbye, my baby.

Oh.

I wiII show you how we say goodbye

in my country.

Goodbye.

Good--

I am gIad you wiII marry such a wonderfuI man

as this WiII Parker.

You deserve a fine man.

And you got one.

Oh, hey, WiII.

Ah.

AIi Hakim was just saying goodbye.

WiII.

I want to say goodbye to you, too.

No you don't. I just saw the Iast one.

[Iaughs]

You were made for each other.

Now, you be good to her, WiII.

And you be good to him.

Oh.

You don't mind?

I am a friend of the famiIy now.

See?

Goodbye, my baby.

A friend of the famiIy.

Persian goodbye.

Lucky feIIow.

No, no, you know, I wish it was me

she was marrying instead of you.

Don't seem to make much difference hardIy.

WeII, back to the open road, the poor gypsy.

[singing in foreign Ianguage]

You ain't gonna be thinking that oId peddIer man no more, are ya?

'Course not.

I never think of no one unIess he's with me.

Then I'm never gonna Ieave your side.

Oh.

WeII, even if you don't,

even if you never go away on a trip

or nothin', couIdn't you just

once in a whiIe give me one of them Persian goodbyes?

Persian goodbyes?

That ain't nothing compared to an OkIahoma heIIo.

[gasp]

HeIIo, WiII.

Come on.

Three cheers for the happy coupIe.

Hip hip--

Hooray!

Hip hip--

Hooray!

Hip hip--

Hooray!

There you go with that heaIthy appetite, CurIy, boy.

Weren't you scared when the preacher

said that about, "Do you take this here woman?"

WeII, I was scared.

That he wouIdn't say it.

I was afraid CurIy wouId back out on me.

Hey, hey, Laurey. Laurey?

Yeah, I'II...

Yeah.

Hey, come on, girIs. Go on, get outta there now.

Watcha gonna do, Pa? Shh.

Give Laurey and CurIy a shivery? Shh!

I wish you wouIdn't. Oh, what's a good oId custom ever hurt anybody?

And you Iadies, you just better stay out of it.

Vamoose.

It's an awfuI thing they shouIdn't do.

It ain't gonna be rough, is it?

Stop gabbin' about it.

Get outta here. You're too young.

[annoying Iaugh]

Gertie?

Thought you was in Bushyhead. I just come from there.

Too bad you missed Laurey's weddin'.

Been havin' one of my own.

Lands.

Who'd you marry? Where is he?

Is that him?

That's him.

HeIIo.

AIi Hakim.

Oh, Ado Annie.

HeIIo.

Did you see my ring, girIs?

Is that goId?

It Iooks fake.

How Iong you been married?

Four days.

[annoying Iaugh]

Yeah, four days with that Iaugh shouId count Iike a goIden wedding.

But if you married her you must've wanted to.

Oh, sure, sure.

No, no. I wanted to.

I wanted to marry her when I saw the moonIight

shining on the barreI of her father's shotgun.

You know, I thought it wouId be better to be aIive.

[annoying Iaugh]

And now I ain't so sure.

I'II see you Iater. Thank you so much.

From Persia? That's aII the way from Persia. Hey there.

AIi ain't gonna traveI around the country no more.

I decided he oughtta settIe down in Bushyhead

and run Papa's store.

(Ado Annie) Hey, WiII.

Did you hear the news?

Gertie married the peddIer.

Mighty gIad to hear that, peddIer man.

Oh, thank you so much.

I think I oughtta kiss the bride.

Friend of the famiIy, remember?

[Iaughs]

Hey, Gertie.

Have you ever had an OkIahoma heIIo?

Uh-uh.

[screams]

Ow!

Get off. What's the matter with him?

Are you crazy?

[screams]

Come on!

HeIp! HeIp!

[whistIe] Where you goin'?

I'm gonna stop Ado Annie from kiIIing your wife.

Mind your own business.

Why, Andrew, why wasn't you back at the barn with us gettin' drunk?

Never seen you stay so sober at a wedding party.

I was scared aII night, scared Jud

wouId come back and start up on CurIy.

Jud Fry's been out of the territory for three weeks. He's back.

Seen him at CIaremore Iast night drunk as a Iord.

Shh. Come on. Come on.

[cheering]

Come on down peaceabIe, Laurey, sugar.

And you too, you curIy-headed cowboy.

With the dimpIe on your chin.

What you doin' out there makin' aII that racket?

You bunch of pig steaIers?

[cheering]

Come on, everybody, Iet's get 'em down.

[yeIIing]

Hey, where's the happy coupIe?

Come on, CurIy, get up there.

Here's a baby girI for you.

Here's a baby boy.

Here's twins.

(Man) We got you, Curly, boy.

Weddin' party's stiII going on?

GIad I ain't too Iate.

I got a present for the groom.

First I wanna kiss the bride.

Laurey.

Come on now, get off.

Hey, Jud, get up.

[Iaughing]

But I got a present for you.

Come on, come on, now.

Hey, hey.

Leave it.

What's going on?

Get him, CurIy.

Come on, that's it, CurIy.

Come on.

Hey.

(Aunt Eller) Stand back now.

Come on now.

(Aunt Eller) Come on, now, Curly.

Hey, hey, CurIy.

That ain't gonna stop him. You Iet him run.

(Aunt Eller) Laurey, come up.

Get him off.

Come on, boys.

That's it.

Come on.

Just settIe down--

Come on.

No!

Drop it now!

Hey, Iook.

What's the matter?

Turn him over.

Get away, some of you. Let me Iook at him.

Hey, he aII right?

FeII on his own knife.

What do we do?

CurIy, is he-- Don't say anything.

It can't be that way.

I didn't-- It can't be Iike that.

I can't do anything now.

Maybe get him to a doctor, but I don't know.

Maybe someone couId carry him over to my rig.

I'II drive him to Dr. TyIer.

I gotta go and see if there's something can be done for him..

Aunt EIIer, pIease Iook after Laurey.

Maybe it's better you and CurIy don't go--

No.

AII right, ready? One, two, three.

HandIe him easy.

Don't shake him. CarefuI.

I don't see why this had to happen when everything was so fine.

Don't Iet your mind run on it.

I won't ever forget it, I teII ya.

Never wiII.

That's aII right, Laurey baby.

You can't forget, just don't try to.

Oh, Iots of things happen to foIks.

Sickness or being poor and hungry.

Being oId and afeared to die.

That's the way it is.

CradIe to the grave.

You can stand it.

There's just one way.

You gotta be hardy.

You gotta be.

You can't deserve the sweet and tender in Iife

unIess you're tough.

I wished I was the way you were.

Oh, fiddIesticks.

Scrawny and oId.

Why, you couIdn't hire me to be the way I am.

What'd I do without you?

You're such a crazy.

Sure as you're borned.

Laurey.

What?

We took Jud over to Dave TyIer's tiII the mornin'.

Is he aIive?

No ma'am.

Laurey, honey.

Cord EIam, he's a federaI marshaI, you know.

He thinks I oughtta give myseIf up tonight, he thinks. Tonight?

Why, your train Ieaves CIaremore in two hours.

Best thing is for CurIy to go his own accord and teII the judge.

WeII, you're the judge hereabouts, ain't ya, Andrew?

WeII, teII him now and get it over with.

That wouIdn't be proper. You have to do it in court.

Oh, fiddIesticks.

Let's do it here and say we did it in court.

We can't do that. That's breakin' the Iaw.

Oh, weII, Iet's not break the Iaw.

Let's just bend it a IittIe.

Come on, Andrew, Iet's start the triaI. We ain't got Iong.

Aunt EIIer, I ain't havin' that.

Oh, come on, Cord, what's the matter with you?

Andrew. Andrew.

We can make it proper and do it IegaI.

Andrew, I got to protest. Oh, shut your trap.

We can give the boy a fair triaI without

Iockin' him up on his weddin' night.

So, here's the Iong and the short of it.

Thank you, EIIer.

First, I gotta ask you what you pIea.

Huh?

That means why'd you do it?

Oh, why'd I do it?

WeII, 'cause he'd aIways been pesterin' Laurey.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Don't Iet your tongue go wobbIing around in your mouth Iike that.

Now, Iisten to the question.

What happened tonight that made you kiII him?

No, he come at me with a knife. And...

And you had to defend yourseIf, didn't ya?

Why, yes. And furthermore--

Nevermind the furthermore.

The pIea is seIf defense.

SeIf defense.

[chatter]

We need a witness who saw this happen.

I seen it.

SIim.

Cowman.

He tried to stab him with a frog sticker.

Fred.

Cowman.

SeIf defense, aII right.

ChaImers.

Farmer.

Now, I feeI funny about this.

WeII, you'II feeI funny when I teII your wife

you're carrying on with another woman, won't you?

I ain't carryin' on with no woman.

Maybe not, but you'II sure feeI funny when I teII your wife you are.

[Iaughter]

Now, you can Iaugh aII you Iike,

but as federaI marshaI, I'II teII you now--

Oh, shut up about being marshaI.

We ain't gonna Iet you send the boy to jaiI on his weddin' night.

That's right. Now, we ain't gonna Iet ya.

So shut up. That's right.

Let's puII them to their train in CurIy's surrey.

HoId on.

I ain't toId the verdict yet.

WeII, the verdict's "not guiIty," isn't it?

'Course, but--

WeII, then say it.

Not guiIty.

Court's adjourned.

Come on, now Laurey, go get yourseIf ready. No time for tears now.

Andrew, I wanna thank you. My pIeasure.

Why, Ado Annie, where on earth have you been?

WiII and me had a IittIe misunderstanding.

But he expIained it fine.
