Lyrics

Herbie, why don't you get angry outside
Instead of letting it settle in your stomach?
If I ever let loose, it'll end with me picking up and walking
You'll never get away from me
You can climb the tallest tree
I'll be there somehow
True, you could say, "Hey, here's your hat"
But a little thing like that
Couldn't stop me now
I couldn't get away from you
Even if you told me to
So go on and try
Just try
And you're gonna see
How you're gonna not at all get away from me
What is it?
What do you want?
There are better agents
Not for me
Weaker men?
Not for me
Then what?
You, Herbie
Just help me like you been helping
Just let me get June's name up in lights so big
It'll last my whole life
Rose, what you expect—
I'll get
And after I get it, I will marry you
I even promise to keep my promise
Oh, Herbie
I don't want to upset anything before the audition tomorrow
Including your stomach
Ah, Rose—
Rose, I love you
But don't count your chickens
Come dance with me
I warn you
That I'm no Boy Scout
Relax a while—come dance with me
So don't think
That I'm easy pickin's—
The music's so nice—
Rose
'Cause I just may
Some day
Pick up and pack out
Oh no, you won't
No, not a chance
No argument
Shut up and dance
[Instrumental]
You'll never get away from me
You can climb the tallest tree
I'll be there somehow
True, you could say, "Hey, here's your hat"
But a little thing like that
Couldn't stop me now
I couldn't get away from you
Even if I wanted to—
Well, go on and try
Just try—
Ah, Rose
And you're gonna see—
Ah, Rose
How you're gonna not at all
Get away from me
