Tasty Mystery Baskets of Clips

Jockey? Jockey sounds swell. Just my luck to miss out on it.

Uh, no, thanks.

Oh, sure. You can play all that stuff around Chicago for Sullivan.

Well, have you thought it over, Fay?

Call a rehearsal for 10:00 tomorrow morning.

Yes, Dr. Anderson.

To the people. God bless them.

Nine or 10 generations have grown up since then.

I'm the kid that's all the candy I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy

A-stix a-nix hix a-pix

You don't know it, boys, but your days are numbered.

- ...and is a great dancer. - He dances, eh?

To old Broadway

That's one thing I always admired about you Irish-Americans.

Your father never sat around an orchard listening to his arteries hardening.

I hear now that Cohan's in town, Foy's gonna retire.

I'm not angry, but it is very discouraging.

Oh, Georgie, no one knows that any better than I do...

If you like, Abe.

"Small towns refuse rube pictures." Stix nix hix pix.

- "I can lick any kid in town." - Heh. Good.

And we'll all be longing for you, Mary

But if ever the rent does come due and you can't meet it, well, you know...

...and you've made me feel very young.

The title showed how hard I was hoping.

If we only could. They're so pretty.

You're not gonna let a beard and eyebrows frighten you, are you?

Hit your lights so we can keep going, will ya?

Tries to sing? Why, he's a genius. He keeps his audience glued to the seats.

Hammerstein's a great showman. A lot of people have never seen a Scotchman.

I've never refused you anything, have I?

Well, the audience loved it, every minute of it.

Well, uh, you know how I feel, don't you, Sam?

The Congressional Medal of Honor.

He's gonna give America The English derby cup

...and visit places we've always wanted to see...

Here they are. Rave notices again.

Even allowed Goff to agree with him.

This war's a coffee klatsch compared to a season with a musical show.

That's only arithmetic.

That's wonderful of you. Thank you very, very much. Go ahead, George. Play it.

With little cupid on the throne

Yankee Doodle, do or die.

Pretty bad, George.

The manager expects me to sing "The Wedding of the Lily and the Rose."

While you're gone

The salary's all right, but how have you got the nerve...

We'll soon be sailing for

In show business, you'll see a lot of those.

- No. - Well, I tell you what you do.

Heh. Madame, someday I hope you will give me the pleasure...

It's a beautiful city, but I hate to go back to it.

Who do you think was Peck's bad boy?

- Did that follow "Beat Me Daddy, 8 to the Bar"? - Yes! Or "Jeepers Creepers."

We'll have a nice cold bottle and a bird.

I'm gonna have my name up and down Broadway...

Did you have that appointment with that man about your booking?

Keep your eyes upon me And surprised you will be

Whisper of how I am yearning

Is this kid in your show?

- Sit down and take this. - We'll be sorry.

- Hello, Mr. Foy. - How are you?

Here, take this. Oh, Jerry.

Her steady fella broke a dice game Down in Louisville

And the white was the white of the snow at Valley Forge.

...you don't want to be too original either, do you?

On the day I left Schenectady

Every heart beats true Under red, white and blue

You're canceled! You're washed up!

All the backslapping and the applause, well, it became unimportant.

Youth needs confidence.

It's all good, clean fun. Didn't they enjoy it in Boston?

He's a Yankee Doodle Dandy

I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy

Another like Molly Malone

You're hesitating about having Fay Templeton in your show?

Well, George, on behalf of your mother and myself, I...

And someday, Mr. Senior Partner, you're gonna come to me and admit you were wrong.

I'm just a song-and-dance man. Everybody knows that.

We're going to dance At the barber's ball

Books and lyrics, music, and direction by George M. Cohan.

Can't help thinking a theatrical era is dying in there.

Here it is. It's finished. Come on.

We set out to rubberneck at the world.

It's a lucky family that dances together every day.

Good-bye, Mr. Cohan, and good luck.

And we won't come back Till it's over over there

What are you thinking about?

To old Broadway And say that I'll be there ere long

Sergeant Lewis at the Pennsylvania Avenue gate.

We'll be over We're coming over

I think he's a little upset.

- What...? What's it about? - We gave our word to Dietz.

Still, it was lonely on the main stem.

Just to ride the ponies.

What happened to that Boston offer you got?

All except the last act. Alecson suggests a new finish.

First, he considers his pleasure or his honor or his purse.

There's no one can teach the same

Yes, Jerry, give the devil his due.

Sit down. Right here. You sit down.

You could've told during rehearsals that I'd be a sensation.

Heh-heh. Well, uh, shall we get down to business?

- Like Grant took Richmond. - I never really thought of leaving.

I sit up in my study Writing gags for Mr. Ickes

No, no, no. He gets shot in the arm, Mr. Schwab, not the leg.

You haven't forgotten we have a date tonight?

Who told her to switch that number?

Carriage for Mr. Albee!

My respects to Mrs. Dietz.

Jerry, if he offers you a cigar, don't take it.

That's the last time I'll ever bring you a play.

At the dancing you have yet to learn

Oh, that's all right. Fay has the song, but I have the author.

He's producing a new show by Kaufman and Hart.

Heavenly day, Nellie! He's crying with a brogue.

What did the papers say about the minstrel show?

Popularity better be a hit. Got a lot of dough sunk in that too.

Well, I'll dance.

I did it with the orchestra leader, and you do it this show.

Behind the man Behind the gun

It is a very bad play.

- You certainly have. - Ahem.

Only 45 minutes from Broadway

- Say, Matt, would you put a head on that? - You bet I will.

Honest, you're a grand old flag

Send the word, send the word To beware

The only trouble is it's three minutes fast.

Because he's the whole darn country squeezed into one pair of pants.

Ambition, pride, patriotism.

Don't worry. You won't have to. I'll show them yet.

Think of the changes it brings

There's a notice on the call-board. You can't change your act after the first show.

Heh. Well, there's no use beating around the bush.
