Du Barry Was a Lady Page #3

Do I love you, do I?

Does July need a sky of blue?

Would I miss you, would I?

If you ever should go away

If the sun should desert the day

What would life be?

Will I leave you? Never

Could the ocean leave the shore?

Will I worship you forever?

Isn't heaven forevermore?

Do I love you, do I?

Oh, my dear, it's so easy to see

Don't you know I do?

Don't I show you I do?

Just as you love me

Say, the song's better than I thought.

Now, look what you've done.

- What have I done?

- Hit me when my guard was down.

Do I love you.

- Do you, May?

- No.

I've decided not to fall in love right now.

As if it's up to you to decide.

- You're human, aren't you?

- I hope not.

- Now, May, look.

- I'm looking and what do I see?

A nice guy with brown eyes who

writes great songs and hasn't got a nickel.

- Maybe not now but...

- Yeah, I know. Things will get better.

That's what my mother and dad said.

She was the prettiest girl on the block

and he was the nicest guy.

It was love at first sight

and when they took another look,

they were hitched, on $20 a week.

Yes, and only a few years later,

he was making $25.

Before you know it,

he bought Mom the nicest ironing board

and washtub you ever saw.

And then Mom started raking

in as much as 5 whole bucks a week.

Wasn't that swell?

Now you don't think

I'd let you take in laundry?

Well, my folks didn't start out

with that idea, either.

They were married.

That was their first mistake.

I was their second.

They had to eat. That was their third.

Maybe your dad didn't have my prospects.

I'm a rising young man.

Yes, you are

and you'll rise a lot faster without me.

- You'd help me.

- Yeah. I'm all you need.

My dad had ambitions, too,

but he kept holding onto a job he hated

so there'd be some security in the family.

He finally forgot his ambitions.

- My dad was a nice guy.

- Sure, he was.

- So are you.

- Thanks.

That's why I don't want to see you

come to what my dad came to.

I love you too much.

You said you loved me!

- Gosh, I never said that before.

- Go on, say it again.

- Alec, you're on.

- Coming.

I'll be right back after my number.

Don't go away now.

Do I love you, do I?

Doesn't one and one make two?

Do I love you, do I?

Does July need a sky of blue?

Do I love you, do I?

Oh, my dear, it's so easy to see

Don't you know I do?

Don't I show you I do?

Just as you love me

Say it again.

- Say what?

- That you love me.

All right.

I love you.

What's the matter, honey?

You don't sound like you mean it.

I don't, so get going.

Hey, what goes on here?

What's the matter with you?

Nothing's the matter with me.

Are you mixed up.

In one breath you can tell me you love me,
