Hey, the show boat's coming.
Come on, mule. Git!
Show boat. Show boat.
Here comes the show boat.
Show boat.
See the show boat
It's old Captain Andy's Cotton Blossom
Will you go?
Are you coming to the show?
'Twill be delightful
And quite rightfully we say
There's not a better show
From New Orleans to St. Jo
Captain Andy has gathered a troupe
In the greatest of dramas
And jolly comedies
Stephen Baker
The handsomest leading man
And beautiful Julie LaVerne as well
Cotton Blossom, Cotton Blossom
Captain Andy's floating show
Thrills and laughter, concert after
Everybody's sure to go
Leave the lumber in the sawmills
Leave the cotton on the stalks
Come and meet him
Come and greet him
Captain Andy Hawks
Ladies and gentlemen,
it is with exhilarating gratification...
...that I bring once again
my theatrical offering...
...to your fair community.
I want you to meet
some of the greatest artists...
...that ever played the river towns.
Miss Ellie May Shipley!
The toast of Cairo, Illinois.
Next, I want y'all
to meet Frank Schultz!
Mr. Schultz is the villain in our play.
But off-stage he wouldn't hurt a fly.
And he's stuck on Ellie.
That's the way they always are, folks.
Just one big happy family.
And I'm their father.
And Parthy here is their mother.
I worked in a new one, didn't I? We're
the parents of one big happy family.
You're a big bellowing catfish.
Now get these handbills started.
Now I want you to meet the
little sweetheart of the South.
Our songstress and leading lady...
...Miss Julie LaVerne!
Hiya, Miss Julie!
Just to know her
is to love her, folks.
Here, I want you to know
the handsomest leading man...
...in the Middle West.
A sample of
soul-stirring emotion, folks.
No, Hamilton, I cannot accept you,
for I am not worthy of your noble desires.
On my mother's name, tell me why.
Look into this room and
view the secret of my downfall.
Have to see the play tonight,
folks, to learn her secret.
Tempest and Sunshine.
Beautiful drama of tears and laughter.
And then after that,
the grand concert.
Songs and dances beyond description.
Frank and Ellie, just a sample.
Just a sample, folks.
More! More!
Frank and Ellie. Frank and Ellie.
Just a little bit more.
Are you in business for your health?
Get finished and
Go on. Take them. Go on.
Stephen, my boy. Pass those out
among the adoring young ladies.
All right, captain.
Hey, where'd you get that?
Stole it, huh?
I ain't stole nothing.
Miss Julie give it to me
out of the kindness of her big heart.
- What's the idea of giving my present...?
- Get away.
Something you don't understand,
zebra gal.
I told you. Stay away from my wife.
She's nothing but a...
Here. Frank, take him aboard.
Well, folks, I guess
we fooled you that time.
The boys just played you another
little scene from one of our shows.
Well, folks, don't forget tonight.
Lucky puncher.
Yes, sir, get your tickets now.
Beautiful songs, beautiful people.
Come along, everybody.
Please, Mr. Pete, don't get
yourself all riled up over it.
Mr. Steve and Miss Julie,
they got to play performances here.
Yeah? I know a thing or two.
We'll see how many performances
they play in this town.
Hey, where's the sheriff?
Down there.
Nineteen.
Stud.
That's over $2000 you've lost.
You're unlucky.
Only a temporary condition,
I assure you.
Here's a boat ticket to
New Orleans. Playable?
