The Picture Show
Well, hey sunshine
Sunshine? Looks like rain to me
Not from here it don't
Why, Frankie Epps, quit that, ya hear?
What, I ain't doin' anything!
I'm gonna go to the picture show
There's a movie I got to see
You know the one called "The Silver Gun"
Well, I've been watching since chapter three
I can't wait, it's at eight
And I was wonderin' if you're free!
Go on, go on, go on, go on
You know my mom would never let me 'til I turn sixteen
Go on, go on, go on, go on
Besides I only go to pictures that I haven't seen!
Well, when do you turn sixteen?
Two years from next June!
It's too bad about your mama
Too bad for you!
I know a spot near McConnick's slot
Where you can see the parade real clear!
I got a book, you wanna take a look?
It's called "The Thief and the Brigadier"!
I've got gum, you want some?
I haven't chewed gum for a year!
Go on, go on, go on, go on
I bet your Mama'd let me take you to the picture show!
Go on, go on, go on, go on
I guess you weren't really listenin' when I said no!
Why not ask Iola Stover?
Her mama lets her do whatever she wants!
I was hoping I could go with you!
Go on, ask Iola Stover
Her mama lets her see whoever she wants!
Well, maybe I will!
I hope you do!
Where ya goin'?
To the factory, I didn't get my pay this week
Okay, I'll see ya around
At the picture show?
What? I thought your mama wouldn't let ya!
She will with Essie and Betty Jean
Just not with you!
Bye, sunshine!
Go on, go on, go on, go on
Why, Iola!
You going to the pictures tonight?
Sunshine? Looks like rain to me
Not from here it don't
Why, Frankie Epps, quit that, ya hear?
What, I ain't doin' anything!
I'm gonna go to the picture show
There's a movie I got to see
You know the one called "The Silver Gun"
Well, I've been watching since chapter three
I can't wait, it's at eight
And I was wonderin' if you're free!
Go on, go on, go on, go on
You know my mom would never let me 'til I turn sixteen
Go on, go on, go on, go on
Besides I only go to pictures that I haven't seen!
