On the face of Farmer Jones

- Howdy, neighbor

- Howdy, neighbor

- Happy harvest

- Happy harvest

Get your rocking chairs

For all your cares are over

Clap your hands and lick your chops

Your bumper crops are on the climb

Hey, we're gonna roll in

plenty Spend a five or 10 or 20

And those happy harvest

bells Are gonna chime

Remember, neighbor When

you work for Mother Nature

You get paid by Father Time

Hey, give me a hand with these flats.

You! Young lady...

- Wait. Stop that.

- Heave ho. Heave ho. Heave ho.

Oh, wait a minute. Whoa.

Whoa, you slime, whoa!

What's going on here? What

are you doing up there?

I'm looking for a needle. It's the

"needle in the haystack" bit. Funny?

- I love you!

- What?

- Love you...

- Leave me alone.

Impetuous little fool.

No, don't turn your back.

- I want to remember you as you are.

- Now, wait.

Here, this goes in

the house. Hey, Herb...

- Oh, excuse me.

- Hey, Joe, where do we put these flats?

Oh, Herb, come on.

Give us a hand here.

- Now, wait just a minute.

- Fred.

That's my barn.

Quiet!

What are you doing in my barn?

- Your barn?

- Yes!

You're Jane. Hello, I'm Joe

Ross. Say, this setup's perfect.

- Wait till we get the stage, you'll love it.

- A stage? For what?

For the show, my show, Fall in Love.

Mr. Ross, I don't know

anything about you or your show.

Will you tell these people here there's

been some kind of mistake and go away?

You mean you didn't...?

Didrt Abigail write you?

Abigail? What's Abigail

got to do with this?

Jane!

- Jane.

- Abby.

It's wonderful to be home again.

- This is Joe Ross. He's directing the show.

- We've met.

- My sister.

- Abigail...

...did you ask all these people here?

Of course, darling.

And isn't it wonderful?

A musical show in our barn.

Oh, wait till you see my part.

- It's wonderful, isn't it, Joe?

- Yeah, sure.

Abigail, I'd like to

talk to you inside.

Didrt you tell her were coming?

Well, not exactly, Joe. I thought it

would be sort of fun if we surprised her.

- We surprised her, all right.

- Oh, now, Joe, don't worry.

I'll take care of everything.

It'll be all right.

Abig...?

Let's go in here for a minute.

You still haven't gotten the

- Yes, I felt bad about that.

Oh, darling, I'm sorry. But all my

friends said I should go on the stage.

- No. You see, he, we...

- Where?

In a drugstore on Broadway.

But, Jane, it was really very romantic.

We were both having a sandwich...

...and he... Well, he began to talk
