Stars in My Crown Page #2

And I suppose if you have your way,

It'll be the same in the next.

John, you put those shoes

and stockings right back on.

They make my feet hot.

I don't care. You're not

Going to run around

barefoot on the Sabbath.

It isn't respectful.

Shoo.

Aw, Garfield.

Language?

Now, john, do exactly as

your aunt Harriet says.

Any woman who can bake a

chocolate cake as good as this

Deserves all the

consideration she can get.

Now, Harriet, honey,

About this hymn business.

It's for you to say what you want done

And for me to do it.

Don't be shy about

expressing your desires.

Just speak right up,

And I won't open my mouth...

except to do the preaching.

If the day ever comes when

you don't open your mouth...

that's my last word, Harriet...

except to do the preaching.

# Will there be any stars #

# Any stars in my crown #

# When at evening the sun goeth down #

# When I wake with the blessed #

# In those mansions of rest #

# Will there be any stars in my crown? #

After the

Parson and my aunt Harriet,

The most important people in my world

Were uncle famous Prill

and his old dog belle.

Uncle famous knew everything

about hunting and fishing,

And I don't guess there was

a boy or man in Walesburg

Who hadn't had him for a teacher.

# Any stars,

any stars in my crown #

# When at evening the sun goeth... #

Hello, john.

Hello, chloroform.

Hello, uncle famous.

Chloroform.

Where are y'all going?

Fishing.

That's where I thought you was going.

Well, good-Bye, john.

Bye, chloroform.

Bye, uncle famous.

Chloroform.

Boy, possess yourself.

Leave Mr. Frog be.

He ain't gonna help you catch no fish.

Oh, they ain't biting today.

Maybe they ain't, and maybe they is,

But I just seen a big old catfish

Come sneaking this way.

I know just what he's thinking.

He's thinking,

"Uh, that old man,

he's too smart for me,

"But that boy, he's so

taken up with Mr. Frog,

I'm gonna grab his dough

ball and just scat away. "

Now, how'd you know

he was thinking that?

I been on close terms with catfish

Ever since I was big enough

To scratch myself with my left hand.

If I don't know what

they's thinking, who does?

Where'd he go to?

He didn't say. Oh, there he is now!

Get out the way.

Oh, that's a big one.

Stand back, now, stand back.

Well, bang my time.

I done spake in pride,

And the lord had his

ear out and heard me.

Go on home. Your mammy wants you.

Whoa, whoa.

Famous, I'd like to talk to you.

Howdy, Mr. Backett.

Hot.

Yes, sir.

Famous, got some good news for you.

You know that mica

vein I've been working

On my 60 acres over the

hill from your place?

And making a mighty good

thing out of it, too.
