? In this little space

I've got ?

? I don't know how much

I love you ?

? But it's an enormous lot ?

? If all the world were paper ?

? And all the seas were ink ?

? I'd write a great

big note to you ?

? And tell you what I think ?

? I'd say

I love you dearly ?

? In letters

three miles high ?

- ? And sign it yours sincerely ?

- [ Whistle Blows ]

? Cross my heart

and hope to die ?

? If all the stars

were diamonds ?

? In golden skies above ?

? They wouldn't be worth that

without your love ?

?I'd like to write

I love you ?

? So big that you would blink ?

? If all the world were paper ?

? Yes, and all the seas

were ink ?

What are all those mummies

sitting in there for?

Mummies? [ Laughs ]

Those aren't mummies, Betsy--

Those are millionaires.

They spent all their lives

trying to make a million dollars...

and now they sit there

wondering why.

- Hello, old-timer!

- Shh!

- Is, uh, Mr. Wendling in?

- [ Whispers ] He's in the Grill, sir.

Oh, he's in the Grill.

- [ Bursts Loudly ]

- [ Crashes ]

- [ Murmuring ]

- [ Laughs Softly ]

?I love you as I never ?

? Loved before ?

? Since first I met you

on the village green ?

? The village green ?

? Come to me ere my dream ?

? Of love ?

? Is o'er ?

- ? I love you-- ?

-Jim, wait a minute. That's terrible!

Oh, Just a minute, gentlemen.

Whoa, Just a moment now.

[ Overlapping Speech ]

- I was standing right here.

Someone was a little bit sour.

- It was you.

What? Well, what do you know about music?

[ Laughs ]

Well, of all

the impertinence.

You were off-key.

That part goes like this.

? I love you as I loved you ?

? When you were sweet ?

- That's just the way I did it.

- [ All ] Oh, no!

- I did!

- No. No.

- Let's try it again.

- All right, you take it.

? I love you as I loved you ?

- ? When you were sweet ?

- [ Men ] ? Sweet ?

[ Betsy And Men ]

? When you were sweet ?

? Sixteen ?

-[ Laughing ]

-[ Man ] That's the best you've ever done!

Now we got it.

Let's hold it.

- The youngster knows

her stuff, don't she?

- She sure does.

Begging your pardon, gentlemen.

So sorry, but, uh, this noise--

- Noise?

- What are you talking about?

We've been having complaints.

The other club members--

Just when we're getting hot!

What's this country coming to

if a man can't sing in his club?

Isn't there someplace we can rehearse

without being disturbed?

- I know a place!

- Yeah? Where?

- A hotel!

- Say, that's a swell idea.

No, it won't work. We've been thrown out

of the finest hotels in New York--

- The Waldorf-Astoria and St. Regis.

- That's right.

[ Laughs ] Well, you'll never

be thrown out of this one.

This one is just

made-to-order for you.
