...that from now on you'll always be a good boy.
Maybe I've never told you before, but no son ever had a better dad...
All right, on the boat.
We'll be billed as we should be: The Three Cohans.
Red, white and blue I am for you
Keep your eye on that grand old flag
Are you or are you not going to produce my play?
Bring down the curtain!
You've been dishonest.
Do you, really, Mr. President? That's a long time ago.
I've been here since 2:00 this afternoon, trying to get up courage to come backstage.
- Nothing the matter with my arteries. - No, not right now...
Wandering day by day
I think I might like it, Mr. Cohan.

Maybe you're not quite ready for the big time yet.

Now, that was a very sweet gesture.
Have offered Johnny anything To keep him over here

It has a direct bearing on my sending for you.
Positively a riot.
Larry O'Leary is me name

Look at the condition of this room.
We'll fight as we did before
Hmm.
...because those kids got you all worked up.
My future husband helped me pick it out.
- Three Cohans. - Mm-mm.
The Yanks are coming

She's my Yankee Doodle joy
Nothing wrong with that, especially when the greatest actor is my husband.
We're giving you our two weeks' notice, George. Heh.
A real live nephew Of my Uncle Sam
If you've got a soul in ya
Jerry, the time has come for George's first spanking.

But should old acquaintance be forgot
But it was Mary
- What do you say? - Well, seeing that he arrived...
...when my little sister Josie made her entrance.

- May I? - Why, of course.
Where'd you get those peepers?
Don't worry, Dad. I'll never do that.
That's why most of them never amount to anything.
In show business we call that a piece of pie and a glass of milk.
Oh, I am proud.
- Won't you read all that cleverness? - What makes you think I didn't?
I feel as though I've known you for years.
He's got a Yankee Doodle sweetheart
- Papers? What papers? - What...? What papers?
Yes, you see, my brother's writing some new material for us...

Whenever we get too high-hat, too sophisticated for flag-waving...
...and drinking champagne out of your...
Just as Mr. Doodle did By riding on a pony
Foy won't retire till he's 90.

- What's your name? - Mary.
To be proud her boy's in line

It's easy, very easy
No, but they should be ringing down just about now.
- Is she all right? - She's doing fine.
Dad seemed content with the sticks, but I was straining at the leash.

Sure. I understand.
"Yankee Doodle."
I will be down the street watching a musical comedy.
I'm always as young as the people I'm with...
I seem to hear them say
The next 10 years rushed by like a circus train.
