The Picture Show

Well, hey Sunshine!

Sunshine? Looks like rain to me

Not from here, it don't

Why, Frankie Epps! Quit that, you hear?

What? I ain't doin' anything!

I'm gonna go to the picture show

There's a movie I've got to see

You know the one called 'The Silver Gun'?

Well, I been watching since chapter three!

I can't wait, it's at 8:00

And I was wondering if you're free

Go on, go on, go on, go on

You know my mama'd never let me till I turn sixteen

Go on, go on, go on, go on

Besides, I only go to pictures that I haven't seen

When do you turn sixteen?

Two years from next June

Too bad about your mama

Too bad for you

I know a spot near Mcconnach's lot

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 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 hopin' 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 you goin'?

To the factory, I didn't get my pay this week

Okay, I'll see you around

At the picture show

What? I thought your mama wouldn't let you

She will with Essie and Betty Jean, just not with you!

Bye, Sunshine!

Go on, go on, go on, go on

Why, Iola! You goin’ to the pictures tonight?
