♫ There's a bright golden haze on the meadow ♫

♫ The corn is as high as an elephant's eye ♫

♫ And it looks like it's climbing clear up to the sky ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautiful morning Oh , what a beautiful day ♫

♫ I've got a beautiful feeling ♫

♫ Everything's going my way ♫

♫ all the cattle are standing like statues ♫ Hey! ♫ all the cattle are standing like statues ♫

♫ They don't turn their heads as they see me ride by ♫

♫ But a little brown maverick is winking her eye ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautiful morning ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautiful day ♫

♫ I've got a beautiful feeling ♫

♫ Everything's going my way ♫ Aunt Eller.

Ah ! Scared me to death .

What you doin' around here?

Well , I come asingin' to ya.

♫ all the sounds of the earth are like music ♫

♫ The breeze is so busy it don't miss a tree ♫

♫ And an old weepin' willer is laughin'' at me ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautiful morning ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautiful day ♫

♫ I've got a beautiful feeling ♫

♫ Everything's going my way ♫

♫ Oh , what a beautiful day ♫

If I wasn't an old woman and you wasn't so young and smart alecky, I'd marry you .

Get you to sit around at night and sing to me.

No you wouldn't either, 'cause I wouldn't marry you, nor none of your kinfolks if I could help it.

No, none of my kinfolks, huh?

You tell them that, all of them, including that niece of yours, Miss Laurey Williams.

Aunt Eller, if you want to tell me where Laurey was at, where would you tell me she was at?

I wouldn't tell ya. Not at all.

As far as I can make out, Laurey ain't payin' you no heed.

So she don't take to me much, huh?

Where'd you get such an uppety niece that wouldn't pay no heed to me?

Who's the best bronc buster in this here territory? Why, you, I bet.

And the best bulldogger in 1 7 counties.

Me. That's who.

Lookey here.

I'm handsome, ain't I?

Purdy as a picture.

Curly-headed, ain't I?

And bow-legged from the saddle for God knows how long, ain't I?

Couldn't stop a pig in the road.

What else does she want then, the damn she-mule?

Well, I don't know, but I'm sure certain it ain't you.

So, who are you taking to the Box Social tonight?

Oh, I ain't thought much about it.

Oh, I bet you come over to ask Laurey.

What if I did? You asking me, too? I'll wear my fascinator.

You too? Yeah.

♫ Oh, what a beautiful morning ♫

♫ Oh, what a beautiful day ♫ Oh. I thought you were somebody.

♫ I got a beautiful feelin'' ♫

♫ Everything's going my way ♫ Is this all that's come a-calling at already 1 0:00 on a Saturday morning?

You knowed it was me before you opened the door.

No such a thing. You did.

You heard my voice. You know it was me.

I heard a voice talking rumbly along at Aunt Eller.

I heard someone singing like a bullfrog in a pond.

You knew it was me, you sittin' there thinkin' up somethin' mean to say.

I've a good mind not to ask you to the Box Social.

Well, if you did ask me, I wouldn't go with you.

Besides, how would you take me?

You ain't bought a new buggy with red wheels onto it, have you? No, I ain't.

And a spanking team their bridles all a-jingling. No.

Expect me to ride on behind ole Dun, I guess.

Better ask that old Cummings girl you took such a shine to across the river.

Well, if I was to ask you, there'd be a way to take you, Miss Laurey Smarty.

Huh? There would?

♫ When I take you out tonight with me ♫

♫ Honey, here's the way it's gonna be ♫

♫ You will sit behind a team ♫

♫ of snow white horses ♫

♫ In the slickest gig you ever see ♫ Lands!

♫ Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry ♫

♫ When I take you out in the surrey ♫

♫ When I take you out in the surrey ♫

♫ with the fringe on top ♫

♫ Watch that fringe and see how it flutters ♫

♫ When I drive them high steppin' strutters ♫

♫ Nosey pokes will peek through their shutters ♫

♫ and their eyes will pop ♫

♫ The wheels are yeller, the upholstery's brown ♫

♫ The dashboard's genuine leather ♫

♫ With isinglass curtains you can roll right down ♫

♫ in case there's a change in the weather ♫

♫ Two bright sidelights winkin' and blinkin'' ♫

♫ Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin' ♫

♫ You can keep your rig if you're thinkin' ♫

♫ that I'd care to swap ♫

♫ for that shiny little surrey with the fringe on the top ♫

♫ Would you say the fringe was made of silk? ♫

♫ Oh, wouldn't have no other kind but silk ♫

♫ Has it really got a team of snow white horses? ♫

♫ One's like snow, the other's more like milk ♫ So you can tell them apart.

♫ All the world will fly in a flurry ♫

♫ When I take you out in the surrey ♫

♫ with the fringe on top ♫

♫ When we hit that road, hell for leather ♫ Hya! ♫ Cats and dogs will dance in the heather ♫

♫ Birds and frogs will sing all together ♫

♫ and the toads will hop ♫ Wa-haw!

♫ The wind will whistle as we rattle along ♫

♫ Cows will moo in the clover ♫

♫ The river will ripple out a whispered song ♫

♫ And whisper it over and over ♫

♫ Don't you wish you'd go on forever? ♫

♫ and you'd never stop ♫

♫ In that shiny little surrey with the fringe on the top ♫ You'd sure feel like a queen sitting up in that carriage.

Only she talked so mean to me a while back, Aunt Eller, I've a good mind not to take her.

Ain't said I was going.

Ain't asked ya.

Where'd you get such a rig at?

I'll bet he went and hired a rig at Claremore thinking I'd go with him.

That's all you know about it.

Oh, oh, oh, spent all his money hiring a rig and now he ain't got nobody to ride in it.

I have, too.

Look, I did not hire it.

I made the whole thing up out of my head.

What?

Made it up?

Dashboard and all.

Oh, get off of the place, you.

Aunt Eller, make him get himself out of here.

Telling me lies.

Makin' up a few...whoo!

Making up a few little pretties--hey!

Look out, now.

Making up a few pretties ain't against any law I know of.

Hey, don't you wish there was such a rig though?

Hmm?

Then you can go to that play party and do a little hoedown till morning if you was a-mind to.

And then... when you was all wore out, I'd lift you up onto that surrey, jump up alongside of you and... we'd just point the horses home.

♫ I can see the stars gettin' blurry ♫

♫ When we arrive back home in the surrey ♫

♫ Riding slowly home in the surrey ♫

♫ with a fringe on top ♫

♫ I can feel the day getting older ♫

♫ Feel a sleepy head near my shoulder ♫

♫ Nodding, drooping, close to my shoulder ♫

♫ till it falls, kerplop ♫

♫ The sun is swimming on the rim of a hill ♫

♫ The moon is taking a header ♫

♫ And just as I'm thinking the earth is still ♫

♫ A lark will wake up in the meadow ♫ Hush, hush, you bird.

♫ My baby's a-sleepin'' ♫

♫ Maybe got a dream worth a-keepin' ♫ Whoa, you team.

♫ And just keep a-creepin'□♫

♫ at a slow clip clop ♫

♫ Don't you hurry with the surrey ♫

♫ with a fringe on the top ♫

Only...

Only, there ain't no such rig.

What you just said, you made the whole thing up.

Why'd you come 'round here, these stories and lies getting me all worked up that way?

Talking about the sun swimming on the hill like it was so.

Laurey...

Who'd want to ride alongside you anyway?

Oh, why don't you just grab her and kiss her when she acts that way, Curly?

She's just aching for you, too, I bet.

I wouldn't even speak to him let alone allow him to kiss me, the bragging, bowlegged, wish-he'd-had-a-sweetheart bum.

She likes you. Quite a lot.

Yeah, if she liked me anymore, she'd sic the dogs out on me.

Listen, Aunt Eller, I got to know something.

Who's the low filthy sneak Laurey's got her cap set for?

Oh, that's you.

No, never mind that.

There must be plenty of men trying to spark her and she surely leans to one of them, now, don't she?

Well, now, there's that fine farmer, Jace Hutchens.

Just this side of Lone Ellum.

And then of course there's that old widower man over at Claremore.

Makes out he's a doctor or a veterinary.

That's what I thought.

Hello.

Hello yourself.

And...

And of course there's someone much nearer her home, got her on his mind most of the time, so he can't tell a plow from a threshing machine.

Yup.

Yup. Jud Fry.

That b*llet-colored growly man?

Now, don't you say nothin' against him.

He's the best hired hand I ever had.

Just about runs this farm by his self.

Well, two women couldn't do it, you ought know that.

Laurey would take up with a man like that?

I never said she took up.

I know, but he's around all the time.

And he lives here.

In the smokehouse.

Hi, Eller.

Mornin', Ike.

We're going over to the station.

You need anything in Claremore?

You can take me with you.

There's somethin' on that train I gotta pick up.

Personal.

Hey, Curly.

Oh, hey, Slim.

Did you get it?

Did I get what?

Did you get that wagon hitched?

Wagon? What wagon?

There's a crowd of folks coming from Bushyhead... to the Box Social.

Curly said maybe you'd loan us your big wagon.

Take 'em over to Mr. Skidmore's ranch.

Well, sure I would. If he'd asked me.

Yeah, I just got talking about a lot of other things but I'll go hitch up the horses now if you say it's all right.

Go ahead. Time we got goin'.

Now, why don't you ask the girls from Bushyhead to stop by here and freshen up? all right.

It's a long way to Mr. Skidmore's.

Thanks for the loan of the wagon, Aunt Eller.

Aunt Eller.

Hey, hi, will.

Hi, Aunt Eller!

What happened at the fair?

How'd you do with the steer ropin'?

Oh, I did purdy good.

I won it.

Good boy. Thank you, Ike.

I hoped you would.

What? What happened?

Oh, I can't stay but a minute, Aunt Eller.

I gotta get over to Ado Annie.

Don't you remember, Pa said if I was ever worth $50, I could have it. $50?

Is that what they gave ya for prize money? That's right.

Well, if Ado Annie's pa keeps his promise, we'll be dancin' at your wedding.

Well, if he don't keep his promise, I'll take it from right under his nose.

I won't give him the present I brought for him.

Lookey here, fellas, what I got for Ado Annie's pa.

Watcha got there?

Oh, excuse us, Aunt Eller.

Huh?

Oh, come on, darling.

You put it up to your eye like this, then when you get a good look, you turn it at the top and the picture changes.

Well, I'll be side-gaited!

They call it the Little Wonder.

Silly goats.

Why, the hussy!

Why, she ought to be ashamed of herself.

You too.

How do you turn this thing to get her out of the picture?

Wait, wait, wait.

I'm gettin' it. I'm gettin' it.

Did you tell her?

No tellin'' what you've been up to.

I bet you carried on plenty in Kansas City.

Well, I wouldn't exactly call it carrying on.

But I sure did see some things I'd never seen before.

♫ I got to Kansas City on a Friday ♫

♫ By Saturday I learned a thing or two ♫

♫ 'Cause up till then I didn't have an idea ♫

♫ of what the modern world was coming to ♫

♫ I counted 20 gas buggies going by themselves ♫

♫ almost every time I took a walk ♫

♫ Then I put my ear to a Bell telephone ♫

♫ and a strange woman started into talk ♫ What next? Yeah, what?

What next?

♫ Everything's up to date in Kansas City ♫

♫ They've gone about as far as they can go ♫

♫ They went and built a skyscraper ♫

♫ seven stories high ♫

♫ About as high as a building oughta grow ♫

♫ Everything's like a dream in Kansas City ♫

♫ It's better than a magic lantern show ♫

♫ You can turn the radiator on ♫

♫ whenever you want some heat ♫

♫ With every kind of comfort, every house is all complete ♫

♫ You can walk to privies in the rain ♫

♫ and never wet your feet ♫

♫ They've gone about as far as they can go ♫ Yes sir!

♫ They've gone about as far as they can go ♫ Come here.

♫ Everything's up to date in Kansas City ♫

♫ They've gone about as far as they can go ♫

♫ They got a big theater they call a burleekew ♫

♫ For 50 cents you can see a dandy show ♫ Girls!

♫ One of the girls was fat and pink and pretty ♫

♫ As round above as she was round below ♫

♫ I could swear that she was padded ♫

♫ from her shoulder to her heel ♫

♫ but later in the second act she began to peel ♫

♫ She proved that everything she had was absoluteIy real ♫

♫ She ran about as far as she could go ♫ Yes sir!

♫ Ran about as far as she could go ♫ Watcha doin'? Hey!

Two-step. It's all the dancing nowadays.

The waltz is through.

Catch on to it. One and a two.

One and a two.

'Course they don't do it alone.

Come on, Eller.

♫ And that's about as far as I can go ♫ Yes sir!

♫ That's about as far as she can go ♫

Watcha doin' now, will?

Ragtime.

Seen a couple of fellas doing it in the street.

Whoa.

Come on, fellas.

Pick this one up.

Watch out, will.

Come on, now.

I've got ya. all right, fellas.

Here we go.

Oh, look at that.

Hey.

Nobody can swing a rope like that.

Good boy.

Oh, look at that.

Come on, will. will, you do it.

You don't.

Yeehaw!

Come on, will.

Come on, Cord.

Come on over.

That's not funny.

Cut it out, will.

I said, cut that out, will.

No, I'm tellin'' ya.

Stop that. No.

Hold on now. Watch my feet.

Look at that.

Oh, that's mighty genius, what that is.

Look at that.

He must be in Kansas City trouble, Aunt Eller.

Ain't she got a great smile?

Thank you, ma'am.

Hey, what's going on?

Come on back.

Woo hoo!

Come on now.

Up. Up.

Watch my feet now.

Pick it up now. Let's go.

♫ all about as far as we can go ♫ Thank you. May I?

♫ We've gone as far as we can go ♫

Yoo hoo!

Ado Annie.

Hello, Laurey!

Hello.

My, oh my, Miss Laurey.

Chippety crickets.

How high you have growed up.

Last time I come to here, you was tiny.

Like a shrimp with freckles.

Now look on you. Woo!

A great big beautiful lady.

Quit bitin' me.

If you had no breakfast, go get yourself a green apple.

Yeah, all right, I take my things up to the house.

No, no, no.

I see you in a minute, baby, eh?

Hey, will Parker's back from Kansas City. will Parker?

I didn't count on him being back so soon.

I can see that.

The peddler man's gonna drive me to the Box Social.

I got sort of a tasty lunch.

Oh, Annie, have you took up with that peddler man? Not yet.

But you're promised to will Parker, ain't ya?

Well, not what you might say promised.

I just told him maybe.

Don't you love will anymore?

Of course I do.

There won't never be nobody like will.

What about this peddler man?

They won't never be nobody like him neither.

Well, which one do you like the best?

Whatever one I'm with.

You're a silly cow.

Now, Laurey, you know that nobody paid me no mind up until this year on account of I was scrawny and flat as a bean pole.

Then I kinda rounded up a little and now the boys act different to me.

What's wrong with that?

Well, nothing wrong.

I like it.

I like it so much when a fella talks purdy to me that I get all shaky from horn to hoof. Don't you?

Can't think what you're talkin'' about.

Don't you feel kind of sorry for a fella when he looks like he wants to kiss ya?

You just can't go around kissing every man that asks ya.

Didn't anyone ever tell you that?

Yeah.

They told me.

♫ It ain't so much a question ♫

♫ of not knowing what to do ♫

♫ I know what's right and wrong ♫

♫ since I've been 1 0 ♫

♫ I heard a lot of stories and I reckon they are true ♫

♫ about how girls are put upon by men ♫

♫ I know I mustn't fall into the pit ♫

♫ but when I'm with a fella I forget ♫ Oh.

♫ I'm just the girl who can't say no ♫

♫ I'm in a terrible fix ♫

♫ I always say, come on, let's go ♫

♫ just when I oughta say nix ♫

♫ When a person tries to kiss a girl ♫

♫ I know she ought to give his face a smack ♫

♫ But as soon as someone kisses me ♫

♫ I somehow sort of wanna kiss him back ♫

♫ I'm just a fool when lights are low ♫

♫ I can't be prissy and quaint ♫

♫ I ain't the type that can faint ♫

♫ How can I be what I ain't? ♫

♫ I can't say no ♫

♫ Watcha gonna do when a fella gets flirty ♫

♫ and starts to talk purdy? ♫

♫ Watcha gonna do, supposin' that he says ♫

♫ that your Iips are like cherries? ♫

♫ Or roses, or berries ♫

♫ Watcha gonna do? ♫

♫ Supposin' that he says that you're sweeter ♫

♫ than cream and he's gotta have cream or die ♫

♫ Watcha gonna do when he taIks that way? ♫ Spit in his eye? No.

♫ I'm just the girI who can't say no ♫

♫ Can't seem to say it at all ♫

♫ I hate to disappoint a beau ♫

♫ when he is payin' a call ♫

♫ For a whiIe I act refined and cooI ♫

♫ whiIe sittin' on my veIveteen settee ♫

♫ And then I'II think of that oId goIden ruIe ♫

♫ and do for him what he wouId do for me ♫

♫ I can't resist a Romeo ♫

♫ in a sombrero wearing chaps ♫

♫ Soon as I sit on their Iaps ♫

♫ something inside of me snaps ♫

♫ I can't say no ♫

It's like a I toId ya, I just get sorry for him.

WeII, I wouIdn't feeI sorry for no man no matter what.

But, see, with all Hakim now... all Hakim?

Is that his name?

Yeah.

It's Persian.

Are you sure for certain you Iove him better than you Iove will?

WeII, I was sure.

But now that will has to come back home and first thing you know he'II be taIkin' purdy to me and changing my mind back.

But will wants to marry you.

WeII, so does all Hakim.

The peddIer?

Did he ask you?

WeII, not directIy.

But how I know is he said to me this mornin' when we was ridin' in his buggy, that he wanted for me to drive like that with him to the end of the worId.

WeII, if we onIy drove as far as Catoosie, that'd take till sundown, wouIdn't it?

Then we'd have to go somewheres and spend all night together.

And being together all night means he wants a wedding, don't it?

Not to a peddIer it don't.

Hey, Aunt EIIer.

Hi, yourseIves.

Why, it's that peddIer.

One that soId me that eggbeater.

Hey, peddIer man, hoId your horses.

I wanna taIk to you.

You remember what you toId me, hmm?

ToId me that eggbeater wouId b*at up the eggs and wring out my dishrags and turn my ice cream freezer, and I don't know what all. all right. If the eggbeater don't work, I'II give you something just as good. Just as good?

It better be a thousand miIIion times better.

Now, Aunt EIIer, just Iisten to--

I ain't your Aunt EIIer.

Don't you call me Aunt EIIer, you little wart.

WeII, don't anybody wanna buy somethin'?

WeII, how about you, Miss Laurey. Come on.

Must be wanting something, a purdy young girI like you, hmm?

Me?

'Course I want something.

I want a buckIe made out of shiny siIver to tassIe onto my shoe.

I want a dress with Iace.

Want perfume, wanna be purdy.

Wanna smeII like a honeysuckIe vine.

Give her a cake of soap.

One thing I heard of, never had before a rubber-tired buggy.

Cut gIass sugar bowI.

Want things I can't teII you about, not onIy things to Iook at and hoId in your hands, but things to happen to you.

Things so nice if they ever did happen to you your heart, it'd quit beatin', you'd fall down dead.

I got just the thing for you.

The EIixir of Egypt.

What's that?

It's a secret formuIa. It beIonged to Pharaoh's daughter.

SmeIIing saIts.

But a speciaI kind of a smeIIing saIt.

Now, read what it says on the IabeI here.

"Take a deep breath and you see everything cIear."

That's what Pharaoh's daughter used to do, you know?

When she had a hard probIem to decide like what prince she oughta marry or what dress to wear to a party, or if she oughtta cut off somebody's head, she'd take a whiff of this.

Oh, fiddIesticks.

I'II take a bottIe of this, Mr. PeddIer.

Precious stuff.

How much? Two bits.

Throwin' away your money.

HeIps you decide what to do.

Now, don't you want me to show you some purdy doo dads, huh?

You know, with Iace around the bottom here and purdy ribbons running in and out What, you mean fancy drawers? all made in Paris.

WeII, I don't wear that kind of thing myseIf.

But I sure do like to Iook at 'em.

Yeah. They're all right if you ain't going no pIace.

Why don't you bring your trappings inside?

Maybe I'II find you something to eat and drink.

Ma'am.

He is not gonna marry you.

He is. He is. He said he was. He is. WeII, ask him, why don't ya?

all, me and Laurey have been having an argument. About what, baby?

About what you meant when you said that about driving with me to the end of the worId.

I didn't really mean to the end of the worId.

WeII, then, how far do you wanna go?

Oh, about as far as, say, CIaremore.

To the hoteI.

What's at the hoteI?

Look, in front of the hoteI is a veranda.

Veranda.

Inside is a Iobby.

Okay.

Upstairs...

Upstairs might be paradise.

I thought they was just bedrooms.

No. No?

No, for you and me, baby, paradise.

You see?

I knew I was right and Laurey was wrong.

You do wanna marry me, don't ya?

Hey. What did you just say?

I said, you do wanna marry me, don't ya?

What did you say? I didn't say nothin'.

Yoo hoo. Ado Annie, it's me, l'm back.

Oh, foot.

Just when-'Lo will!

That's will Parker.

Ado Annie!

Hey!

Woo, will!

How's my honeybunch?

How's the sweetest 1 1 0-pound of sugar in the territory? will, this is all Hakim.

How are ya, Hak?

Don't mind the way I taIk. It's all right.

I'm gonna marry her.

Marry her.

On purpose?

WeII, sure. No such of a thing.

No, no, it's a wonderfuI thing to be married.

Listen, I got a brother in Persia got six wives.

Six wives? all at once? Sure.

It's the way they do it in them countries.

No. No. Not aIways.

Got another brother in Persia got onIy one wife. Yeah, he's a bacheIor.

Come here.

Look will-- Look will nothing.

Know what I got for first prize at the fair?

$50!

$50!

Catch on? Your pa promised I can marry ya if I couId get $50.

That's right. He did.

Know what I done with it? Huh?

Spent it all on presents for you.

But if you spent it, then you ain't got the cash.

What I got's worth more than the cash.

FeIIa who soId me the stuff toId me.

But will...

Stop saying, "But will."

When do I get a little kiss?

Ado Annie, honey, you ain't been off of my mind since I Ieft. all the time at the fairgrounds.

Even when I was chasing steers.

I'd rope one under the hooves and I'd puII him up sharp.

And he'd Iand on his little rump.

Then I'd think of you.

Don't start taIkin' purdy, will.

See a Iot of beautifuI gaIs in Kansas City, didn't give one a Iook.

How couId you see 'em if you didn't give 'em a Iook?

I mean I didn't Iook Ioving at 'em.

Like the way I Iook at you.

Oh, will.

PIease don't Iook at me that way.

I can't bear it.

Ain't gonna stop Iooking like this till you give me a little oId kiss.

Oh, what's a little oId kiss?

No.

No. No, I won't.

♫ Supposin' I say that your Iips are like cherries ♫

♫ roses or berries, watcha gonna do? ♫

♫ Can't you feeI my heart paIpitatin' and a bumpin'? ♫

♫ waitin' for somethin', somethin' nice from you ♫ No. ♫ I gotta get a kiss ♫

♫ and it's gotta be quick or I'II jump in a creek and die ♫

♫ What's a girI to say when you taIk that way? ♫

WeII, now, howdy.

How y'all doin'?

Good to see ya.

♫ Oh, what a beautifuI mornin' ♫

♫ Oh, what a beautifuI day ♫

♫ I got a beautifuI feeIin' ♫

♫ Everything's goin' my way ♫

Hey, don't forget, Aunt EIIer, you and me's got a date together.

And if you make up a nice Iunch, WeII, maybe I'II bid for it.

Oh, how we gettin' there, CurIy?

In that rig you made up?

I'II ride a-straddIe of them Iights a-winkin' like Iightenin' bugs!

That there ain't no made-up rig, you hear me? I hired it over to Claremore.

Lands, you did?

Sure did. Purdy one, too.

Changed my mind about cIeaning the hen house today.

Leavin' it till tomorrow.

I gotta to quit earIy 'cause I'm drivin' Laurey over to the party tonight.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

You're drivin' Laurey?

Asked her.

CurIy, why don't you take the wagon down to the trough and get the team some water?

Yeah. Right away, Aunt EIIer.

That's a right smart turnout.

♫ The wheeIs are yeIIa, the uphoIstery's brown ♫

♫ the dashboard's genuine Ieather ♫

♫ with isingIass curtains you can roII right down ♫

♫ in case there's a change in the weather ♫ Can I come, too, CurIy?

Just Iove to watch the way ya handIe horses.

That's about all I can handIe, I guess.

I can't beIieve that.

Not from what I heard about ya.

♫ Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin' that I care to swap ♫

♫ for that shiny little surrey with a fringe on the top ♫ Come on, boys, better get those hampers out under the trees where it's cooI.

Looks like CurIy's took off with that Cummings girI.

Oh, what do I care about that?

WeII, I thought CurIy was supposed to be stuck on you.

WeII, I'd say he ain't stuck on her no more.

Seeing is beIieving.

Bye bye, Curly.

Stop it.

WeII, that's right.

You'II make her cry.

How wouId you like it if you Iost your man?

It's all right.

It's so sad.

Don't you pay 'em no mind, Laurey.

♫ Why shouId a woman who is heaIthy and strong ♫

♫ bIubber like a baby if her man goes away? ♫

♫ Weepin' and a-wallin' how he's done her wrong ♫

♫ That's one thing you'II never hear me say ♫

♫ Never gonna think that the man I Iose ♫

♫ is the onIy man among men ♫

♫ I'II snap my fingers to show I don't care ♫

♫ I'II buy me a brand new dress to wear ♫

♫ I'II scrub my neck and I'II brush my hair ♫

♫ and start all over again ♫

♫ Many a new face will pIease my eye ♫

♫ Many a new Iove will find me ♫

♫ Never have I once Iooked back to sigh ♫

♫ over the romance behind me ♫

♫ Many a new day will dawn before I do ♫

♫ Many a Iight Iad may kiss and fIy ♫

♫ a kiss gone by is bygone ♫

♫ Never have I asked an August sky ♫

♫ where has Iast JuIy gone? ♫ I never say that.

♫ Never have I wandered through the rye ♫

♫ wondering where has some guy gone ♫

♫ Many a new day will dawn before I do ♫ Miss Laurey, in jest, of course.

Really?

Howdy, ma'am. Hi.

♫ Many a new face will pIease my eye ♫

♫ Many a new Iove will find me ♫

♫ Never have I once Iooked back to sigh ♫

♫ over the romance behind me ♫

♫ Many a new day will dawn before I do ♫

♫ Never have I chased the honeybee ♫

♫ who careIessIy cajoIed me ♫

♫ Somebody eIse just sweet as he ♫

♫ cheered me and consoIed me ♫

♫ Never have I wept into my tea ♫

♫ over the deaI someone doIed me ♫

♫ Many a new day will dawn ♫

♫ Many a red sun will set ♫

♫ Many a bIue moon will shine ♫

♫ before I do ♫

♫ Many a red sun will set ♫

♫ Many a bIue moon will shine ♫

♫ before I do ♫

It's...

Thanks a Iot. all Hakim.

HeIIo, kiddo.

Not sure I'm sorry to see you so happy.

'Cause what I gotta teII ya is gonna make you miserabIe.

I gotta marry will.

Oh, weII, that's sad news for me.

WeII, he is a fine feIIow.

Don't try to hide your feeIings, all, I can't stand it.

I'd rather you just come right out and say your heart is busted in two.

Are you positive you got to marry will?

Sure sh**t'.

And there's no chance for you to change your mind?

No chance. all right, then, my heart is busted in two.

Oh, all, you do make up purdy things to say.

Is that you, Annie?

HeIIo, Pa.

Watcha been sh**t'?

Rabbits.

Is that true what I hear about will Parker gettin' $50?

That's right, Pa.

And he wants to hoId you to your promise.

Too bad.

Still and all, I can't go back on my word.

See, all Hakim?

I advise you to get the money off of him before he Ioses it all.

Put it in your stocking or inside your corset where he can't get at it.

Or can he?

But, Pa, he ain't exactIy kept it.

He spent it all on presents.

You see? I toId ya.

Now he can't have ya.

I said it had to be $50 cash.

Is that fair, Mr. Carnes?

Who the heII are you?

WeII, this is all Hakim.

WeII, shut your face or I'II fiII your behind so fuII of buckshot, you'II be waIking around like a duck the rest of your Iife. all... if I don't have to marry will, maybe your heart don't have to be busted in two, like you said.

I did not say that. Oh, yes you did.

No, I did not.

You tryin' to make out that my daughter's a Iiar?

No. I'm just making it cIear of what a Iiar I am if she's teIIing the truth.

What eIse you been saying to my daughter?

Oh, an awfuI Iot.

When?

Last night in the moonIight. Where?

AIongside a haystack.

Listen, Mr. Carnes...

I'm Iistenin'.

What eIse you been sayin'?

He called me his Persian kitten.

Why'd you call her that?

I don't remember. I do.

He said I was like a Persian kitten

'cause they was the cats with the soft around the talls. That's enough.

In this part of the country that better be a proposaI of marriage.

See? That's what I thought.

What do you think?

Look, Mr. Carnes...

I'm Iookin'.

I'm no good. Look, I'm a peddIer.

A peddIer traveIs up and down and all around.

And you'd hardIy ever see your daughter no more.

That'II be all right.

Take care of her... son.

Take care of my little rosebud.

Aw, Pa, that's purdy.

You sure for certain you can bear to Iet me go, Pa?

Are you sure, Mr. Carnes?

Just try changin' my mind.

See what happens to ya.

all Hakim, ain't it wonderfuI?

Pa makin' up our minds for us.

He won't change, neither, once he gives his word that you can have me.

WeII, you've got me.

I know. I gotcha.

Mrs. all Hakim, the peddIer's bride.

Ah! Wait'II I teII the girIs.

Hey, girIs, guess what?

I'm gonna become a bride!

Fathers with shotguns, trapped.

Tricked.

HoodbIinked.

Ambushed.

♫ Friend, what's on your mind? ♫

♫ Why do you waIk around and around? ♫

♫ With your hands foIded behind ♫

♫ and your chin scraping the ground ♫

Twenty minutes ago I am free like a breeze.

Free like a bird in the woodIand wiId.

Free like a gypsy.

Free like a chiId.

I'm unattached.

Twenty minutes ago I can do what I pIease.

FIick my cigar ashes on the rug.

Dunk with a doughnut.

Drink from a jug.

Hey, I'm a happy man.

I'm minding my own business like I oughtta.

Ain't meaning any harm to anyone.

I'm taIking to a certain farmer's daughter and then I'm Iooking down the muzzIe of a g*n.

♫ It's getting so you can't have any fun ♫

♫ Every daughter has a father with a g*n ♫ A big g*n they got on them.

♫ It's a scandaI, it's an outrage ♫

♫ how a gaI gets a husband today ♫

♫ If you make one mistake, then the moon is bright ♫

♫ then they tie you to a contract ♫

♫ so you'II make it every night ♫

♫ It's a scandaI, it's an outrage ♫

♫ when her famiIy surrounds you and say ♫

♫ To make you make her honest, she will Iie like heII ♫

♫ It's a scandaI, it's an outrage ♫

♫ It's a probIem we must cr*ck ♫ Look, there he is!

♫ I've got the answer ♫

♫ I go away and don't come back ♫ I gotta get home right now. I gotta run.

I got pIaces I gotta go.

Gotta get your hamper packed.

WeII, you sure do have a Iot of company.

HeIIo, Laurey.

Just packing your hamper now?

I've been busy.

You got gooseberry tarts, too.

I wonder if they is as Iight as mine.

Mine wouId like to fIoat away if you bIew on 'em.

I did bIow on one of mine and it broke into a miIIion pieces.

WeII, ain't you funny.

Gertie, why don't you come inside and cooI off?

You comin' inside with me, CurIy?

Not just yet.

WeII, don't be too Iong.

And don't forget, when the auction starts tonight, mine's the biggest hamper.

So, that's the Cummings girI I hear so much taIk of.

You seen her before, ain't ya?

Yeah.

But not since she got so oId.

Never did see anyone get so peaked Iooking in such a short time.

Yeah, and she says she's onIy 1 8.

I bet ya she's 1 9.

Watcha got in your hamper?

Oh, just some oId meat pies and appIe jeIIy.

Nothing like what Gertie Cummings has got in her basket.

So you... you're really gonna drive to the Box SociaI tonight with that Jud feIIer?

Reckon so. Why?

Nothin'.

WeII, it's just that everybody seems to expect me to take you.

Then maybe it's just as weII you ain't.

We don't want peopIe taIking about us, do we?

You think peopIe do taIk about us?

You know how they are. Like a swarm of mud wasps aIways gotta be buzzin' about somethin'.

WeII, what are they sayin'?

Oh, that you're stuck on me.

Most of the taIk is that you're stuck on me.

WeII, I can't imagine how these ugIy rumors start.

Me neither.

♫ Why do they think up stories that Iink ♫

♫ my name with yours? ♫

♫ Why do the neighbors chatter all day ♫

♫ behind their doors? ♫

♫ I know a way to prove what they say ♫

♫ is quite untrue ♫

♫ Here is the gist, a practicaI Iist of don'ts ♫

♫ for you ♫ Uh huh.

♫ Don't throw bouquets at me ♫ Oh.

♫ Don't pIease my foIks too much ♫ Aunt EIIer?

♫ Don't Iaugh at my jokes too much ♫

♫ PeopIe will say we're in Iove ♫ Who Iaughs at your jokes?

♫ Don't sigh and gaze at me ♫

♫ Your sighs are so like mine ♫

♫ Your eyes mustn't gIow like mine ♫

♫ PeopIe will say we're in Iove ♫

♫ Don't start coIIecting things ♫ Whoa, whoa, whoa. Like what?

♫ Give me my rose and my gIoves ♫ No, no, no.

♫ Sweetheart, they're suspecting things ♫

♫ PeopIe will say we're in Iove ♫

♫ Some peopIe cIaim that you are to bIame ♫

♫ as much as I ♫

♫ Why do you take the troubIe to bake ♫

♫ my favorite pie? ♫ It is?

♫ Granting your wish I carved our initiaIs ♫

♫ on the tree ♫

♫ Just keep a sIice of all the advice you give ♫

♫ so free ♫ Uh huh.

♫ Don't praise my charm too much ♫

♫ Don't Iook so vain with me ♫ Vain?

♫ Don't stand in the rain with me ♫

♫ PeopIe will say we're in Iove ♫

♫ Don't take my arm too much ♫ Let go.

♫ Don't keep your hand in mine ♫

♫ Your hand feeIs so grand in mine ♫

♫ PeopIe will say we're in Iove ♫

♫ Don't dance all night with me ♫

♫ till the stars fade from above ♫

♫ They'II see it's all right with me ♫

♫ PeopIe will say we're in Iove ♫

Don't you reckon you couId just teII that Jud feIIa you'd rather go with me tonight?

CurIy...

Hmm?

No, I couIdn't.

You couIdn't.

WeII, I think I'II go down to the smokehouse where Jud's at just to see what's so eIegant about him, makes girIs wanna go to parties with him.

CurIy. What?

Nothin'.

♫ Don't sigh ♫

♫ and gaze at me ♫

♫ Your sighs ♫

♫ are so like mine ♫

♫ Your eyes mustn't... ♫

You got your hamper packed?

Oh, Aunt EIIer.

Yes, nearIy.

WouId you like a hanky?

What do I want with an oId hanky?

WeII, you got a smudge on your cheek.

No. Just under your eye.

Aunt EIIer, don't go to Skidmore's with CurIy tonight.

If you do I'II have to ride with Jud all aIone.

WeII, that's the way you wanted it, ain't it?

No.

But I did it 'cause CurIy was so fresh.

But I'm afraid to teII Jud I won't go with him, Aunt EIIer.

He'd do somethin' terribIe.

WeII, you ever been down that oId smokehouse where he's at?

Yeah, pIenty of times.

Did you see them pictures he's got tacked onto the walls?

Yeah.

I seen 'em.

Don't you pay them no heed.

There's somethin' wrong inside of him, Aunt EIIer.

I hook my door at night and fasten my windows again.

Again.

What?

It.

And the sound of feet waIkin' on down out there under that tree outside my room.

Laurey...

I know what I'm taIkin' about.

You crazy yeIIin'.

Now, you stop acting like a chicken that's had its head cut off.

Laurey.

Now, Laurey, I got to thinkin' about how you don't have a right Iot to wear, except your mother's oId wedding dress.

And I , weII, I saved up my pennies and I got you somethin'.

What is it?

WeII, now...

Aunt EIIer!

Oh my Lord.

Thank you so much.

Yeah, weII, try it on.

It's beautifuI. Yes.

WeII, open it, can't ya?

Howdy.

What do you want?

WeII, I done got through my business up here at the house, I just thought I'd pay you a call.

You got a g*n, I see.

Good one. CoIt .45.

Wooee, watcha do with it?

sh**t things.

Oh.

Hey, that there pink picture's a naked woman, ain't it?

Your eyes don't Iie to you.

She's pIumb star naked as a jaybird.

Actually, no. No, she ain't. Not quite.

She got a coupIe a thing-a-bobs tied on her there.

Shucks. That ain't a thing to what I got here.

Take a Iook at that top one.

Whew. I'II go bIind.

That'd give me ideas, that wouId.

That's a dinger, that is.

Oh yeah, that sure is a dinger.

Hey, that's a good Iookin' rope you got there.

Hey, you know will Parker?

Yeah, weII, he can sure spin a rope.

It's a strong hook you got there, Jud.

You can hang yourseIf on that.

I couId what?

Uh, uh, hang yourseIf.

WeII, yeah, it'd... it'd be as easy as falling off a Iog.

Matter of fact you couId stand on a Iog or a chair, if you'd rather, right about here, see?

Just put this here around your neck, tie that good up there first, of course.

And all you'd have to do wouId be to fall off the Iog.

Or the chair, whichever you'd rather fall off of.

And in five minutes or Iess with good Iuck you'd be, you'd be dead as a doornall.

What do you mean by that?

WeII, then, and foIks wouId come to your funeraI and sing sad songs.

Oh, they wouId.

WeII, you never know how many peopIe like ya till you're dead.

You know...

you'd probabIy be Iaid out in that parIor all decked out in your best suit.

Your hair combed down sIick in a high starched coIIar.

Hmm?

WouId there be any fIowers, you think?

Sure wouId.

And paIms, too, all around your coffin.

And then, then foIks wouId gather around you and the men wouId bare their heads and the women, the women wouId sniffIe softIy.

WeII, some wouId probabIy faint.

You know, the ones that took a shine to you when you was allve.

Women never took a shine to me.

Oh, Iots of women.

You see, they don't never come right out and show you how they feeI unIess you die first.

I guess that's so.

They sure wouId sing Ioud, though, when the singing started.

Sing like their hearts are breaking.

♫ Poor Jud is dead ♫

♫ Poor Jud Fry is dead ♫

♫ all gather around his coffin now and cry ♫

♫ He had a heart of goId and he wasn't very oId ♫

♫ Oh, why did such a feIIa have to die? ♫

♫ Poor Jud is dead ♫

♫ Poor Jud Fry is dead ♫

♫ He's Iooking oh so peacefuI and serene ♫

♫ And serene ♫

♫ He's all Iaid out to rest ♫

♫ with his hands across his chest ♫

♫ His fingernalls have never been so cIean ♫

Then the preacher wouId get up and he'd say, "FoIks, we gathered here today to moan and groan

"over our brother Jud Fry.

"Hung his seIf up by a rope in the smokehouse."

Then there'd be weepin' and wallin' from some of those women.

Then he'd say, Jud was the most misunderstood man in the territory.

PeopIe used to think that he was a mean ugIy feIIa.

And they called him a dirty skunk and an ornery pig steaIer.

♫ But the foIks that really knowed him ♫

♫ know that beneath them two dirty shirts ♫

♫ he aIways wore there b*at a heart ♫

♫ as big as all outdoors ♫

♫ As big as all outdoors ♫

♫ Jud Fry Ioved his feIIow man ♫

♫ He Ioved his feIIow man ♫

♫ He Ioved the birds of the forests ♫

♫ and the beasts of the fieId ♫

♫ He Ioved the mice and the vermin in the barn ♫

♫ and he treated the rats like equaIs, which was right ♫ Oh, and he Ioved the little chiIdren.

No, no, no, he Ioved everybody and everything in the whoIe worId.

OnIy he never Iet on so nobody ever knowed it.

♫ Poor Jud is dead, poor Jud Fry is dead ♫

♫ His friends will weep and wall ♫

♫ for miIes around ♫

♫ MiIes around ♫

♫ The daisies in the deII will give out a different smeII ♫

♫ Because poor Jud is underneath the ground ♫

♫ Poor Jud is dead ♫

♫ A candIe Iights his head ♫

♫ He's Iayin' in a coffin made of wood ♫

♫ Wood ♫

♫ And foIks are feeIin' sad ♫

♫ 'cause they used to treat him bad ♫

♫ And now they know their friend has gone for good ♫

♫ Good ♫

♫ Poor Jud is dead ♫

♫ A candIe Iights his head ♫

♫ He's Iookin' oh so purdy ♫

♫ and so nice ♫ Shh, shh, shh.

♫ He Iooks like he's asIeep ♫

♫ It's a shame that he won't keep ♫

♫ But it's summer and we're running out of ice ♫

♫ Poor Jud ♫

Yes sir.

That's how it'd be.

That sure wouId be an interesting funeraI.

I wouIdn't wanna miss it.

WouIdn't wanna miss it, huh?

Maybe you will.

Maybe you'd go first.

Maybe.

Yeah...

Let's see now.

Where'd you work at before you come up here?

It's up by Quapaw, wasn't it?

Yeah.

Before that, over by TuIsa.

Lousy they was to me, both of 'em.

AIways makin' out they were better.

AIways treatin' me like dirt.

What'd you do? Did you get even?

If it'd ever come to gettin' even with somebody, I'd know how to do it.

That?

No.

There's safer ways than that if you use your brain.

You remember that fire on the BartIett farm over by Sweetwater?

About five years ago, terribIe accident.

That b*rned up the father, mother, and daughter.

Yeah, weII, that there weren't no accident.

FeIIa toId me the hired hand was stuck on the BartIett girI and he found her in the hay Ioft with another feIIer.

And it was him that burnt the pIace?

Took him weeks to get up the kerosene.

Buying it up at different times.

The feIIa who toId me, made out like it happened in Missouri, but I knowed all aIong it was the BartIett farm.

What a Iiar he was.

And kind of a m*rder*r too.

Wasn't he?

Let's get a little air in here.

You ain't toId me yet what business you have here.

We ain't got no cattIe to seII ya, there are no cow ponies and the oat crop's done spoke for.

You sure reIieved my mind considerabIe.

There can onIy be one other thing you want on this farm.

It better not be that.

But that's just what it is.

Better not be.

You stay away from her, you hear?

A feIIow wouIdn't feeI very safe in here with you, Jud, if he didn't know ya.

But I know ya.

See, in this country, there's two things you can do if you're a man.

Live outdoors is one and Iivin' in a hoIe is the other.

As Iong as you Iive in a hoIe, you're scared.

You gotta have protection.

Yeah, you can have muscIes like iron and still be as weak as an empty bIadder unIess you got things to barb your hide with.

How'd you get to be the way you are anyway?

You're sittin' here in this fiIthy hoIe thinkin' the way you're thinkin'.

You oughta do something heaIthy once in a whiIe.

Instead of staying shut up in here crawIing and festering.

WeII, you oughtta feeI better now.

That's hard on the roof though.

WeII, I wish you'd Iet me show you something.

You see that knothoIe over there, about as big as a dime?

See it a-winkin'?

I just wanna see if I can hit it.

WeII, that's a buIIet right through the center.

SIick as a whistIe, without touchin', didn't I?

See, I knowed I couId do it.

You saw it, didn't ya?

Why someone's comin', I expect.

Who fired off that g*n?

CurIy, was that you?

WeII, don't just sit there, you Iummy.

Answer when you're spoken to. I sh*t once.

WeII, what was you sh**t' at?

See that knothoIe over there?

I see Iots of knothoIes.

Yeah, weII, it was one of them.

WeII, ain't you a pair of purdy nothins, huh?

Pickin' away at knothoIes and scaring everybody haIf to death.

I oughta give you a Dutch rub and iron the craziness outta you.

It's all right. Ain't nobody hurt.

Just a pair of fooIs swapping noises.

Mind if I visit with you gents?

Yeah, it's good to get away from the women for awhiIe, huh?

Now, then.

We are by ourseIves.

I got a few purdies.

Private knick knacks to show you, speciaI for the men foIks.

I'II see you gentIemen Iater. I gotta get a surrey I hired for tonight.

Who do you think you're takin' in that surrey?

Aunt EIIer.

And Laurey, if she'II come with me.

She won't.

Maybe she will.

She promised to go with me.

She better not change her mind.

She better not!

Now, I want you to Iook at these.

Straight from Paris.

I don't want none of them things now.

I'II teII you what I'd like if you got one.

You ever heard of one of them things you call the LittIe Wonder?

It's a thing you hoId up to your eye to see pictures.

OnIy that ain't all there is to it.

Not quite.

It's got a jigger onto it.

And you touch it and down springs a sharp bIade.

On a spring, huh?

You say to a feIIer, Iook through this and then when he's Iookin', you snap the bIade out.

It's just above his chest and then, bang, down you go.

That's a good joke to pIay on a friend.

No.

I don't like to handIe things like that.

It's too dangerous.

Now, what I'd like to show you is my new stock of postcards.

I'm sick of them things.

Now, I'm gonna get me a reaI woman.

I'm tired of all these pictures of women.

So, you want a reaI woman, huh?

Yeah.

Say... you ever happen to hear of a girI named Ado Annie?

I don't want her.

I don't want her either, but I got her.

I don't want nothin' from no peddIer man.

I want reaI things!

What am I doin'?

CrawIin' and festerin'.

What am I doin' in this Iousy smokehouse?

♫ The fIoor creaks ♫

♫ The door squeaks ♫

♫ There's a fieId mouse nibbIin' on the broom ♫

♫ And I sit by myseIf like a cobweb on a sheIf ♫

♫ by myseIf in a IoneIy room ♫

♫ But when there's a moon in my winder ♫

♫ And it sIants down a beam across my bed ♫

♫ and the shadow of a tree starts a dancin' on the wall ♫

♫ and a dream starts dancin' in my head ♫

♫ And all of the things that I wish for ♫

♫ turn out like I want them to be ♫

♫ And I'm better than that smart aIeck cowhand ♫

♫ who thinks he's better than me ♫

♫ And the mouse starts nibbIin' on the broom ♫

♫ And the sun fIicks my eyes ♫

♫ It was all a pack of Iies ♫

♫ Oh, the farmer and the cowman shouId be friends ♫

♫ One man likes to push a pIow ♫

♫ The other likes to chase a cow ♫

♫ But that's no reason why they can't be friends ♫

♫ Territory foIks shouId stick together ♫

♫ Territory foIks shouId all be paIs ♫

♫ Cowboys dance with the farmers' daughters ♫

♫ Farmers dance with the ranchers' gaIs ♫

♫ Territory foIks shouId stick together ♫

♫ Territory foIks shouId all be paIs ♫

♫ Farmers dance with the farmers' daughters ♫

♫ Farmers dance with the ranchers' gaIs ♫ Come on, now. That's right.

What's the matter, CurIy, don't you know how to dance?

This is probabIy the onIy dance you're gonna get.

Fred, will you heIp me out now, will ya? Come on. Listen.

♫ I'd like to say a word for the farmer ♫ Just say it.

♫ He come out West and made a Iot of changes ♫

♫ He come out West and buiIt a Iot of fences ♫ You say it, will.

♫ And buiIt 'em right across our cattIe ranges ♫ That's right.

Why don't those dirt scratchers stay in Missouri where they beIong?

HeII, we got as much right here as anybody eIse.

Let me at him. Stop now.

You reckon so? I reckon so.

Hey. Shut up.

♫ The farmer is a good and thrifty citizen ♫ He's thrifty all right.

♫ No matter what the cowman says or thinks ♫

♫ You'II seIdom see him drinking at a bar room ♫

♫ UnIess somebody eIse is buying drinks ♫ You can't say that about farmers.

♫ The cowman shouId be friends ♫

♫ Oh, the farmer and the cowman shouId be friends ♫

♫ The cowman ropes a cow with his ease ♫

♫ The farmer steaIs their butter and cheese ♫

♫ But make sure that you Iock up your wife and daughter ♫ Now, that's not right, now.

Ah, who needs an oId farm woman anyway?

Noticed you married one so as you couId get a square meaI.

♫ And when this territory is a state ♫

♫ and joins the union just like all the others ♫

Come on, everybody.

It's time to start the Box SociaI.

GentIemen, y'all know the ruIes.

Gotta bid bIind.

You ain't supposed to know what girI goes with what hamper.

'Course if your sweetheart's toId you that hers is done up in a certain kind of way with a certain coIor ribbon, weII, that ain't my fauIt.

Now we're gonna auction with all of the hampers up around the wagon. FoIIow me. Come on now.

Thank you, honey. You all right now?

Oh, here we go.

My favorite moment.

Psst.

Hello, young fellow. Oh, it's you.

I was just hoping to meet up with you.

It seems like you and me ought to have a little taIk.

We onIy got one thing to taIk about.

WeII, Mr. Hakim, I hear you got yourseIf engaged to Ado Annie.

Yeah-- WeII, nothing.

I don't know what to call you.

You ain't pretty enough for a skunk, you ain't skinny enough for a snake.

You're too little to be a man and too big to be a mouse.

I reckon you're a rat.

That's IogicaI.

Hey, answer me one question. Do you really Iove her?

'Cause if I thought you didn't, I'd tie you up in this bag and I'd drop you in the river.

Are you serious about her? Yes, I'm serious.

WouId you spend every cent you had for her?

That's what I did.

See that bag fuII of presents?

Cost me 50 bucks. all I had in the worId.

If you had $50 cash--

I'd have Ado Annie and you'd Iose her.

Yes.

I'd Iose her.

Let's see what you got in here, I might want to buy something.

What wouId you want with them?

I'm a peddIer, ain't I?

I buy and seII. You know, maybe I'd pay you reaI money.

Maybe as much as, weII, a Iot.

Ah.

What a beautifuI hot water bag.

WeII, now, it Iooks French.

It must've cost pIenty.

I'II give you $8 for it.

$8? That wouIdn't be honest.

I onIy paid $3.50. all right. all right.

I said I'd give ya $8 for it, and I will.

Say...

That's a crackerjack.

Take your hands off that.

That was for our wedding night.

Yeah, don't fit you so good.

I'II pay you $22.

I onIy paid-- all right. all right.

$22.50. Not a cent more.

You wanna buy some more?

I might.

You ever see one of these things?

What made you buy this for? You got it in for somebody?

What do you mean? It's just funny pictures. That's all you think it is.


WeII, it's more than that. Where is everybody? Where's Aunt EIIer?

At the auction, Laurey.

Laurey! Laurey!

How much you give me for this thing?

I don't like to handIe things like this.

You don't know what it is.

It's just a girI in pink tights.

Either you two seen Laurey?

Just went over yonder. Auction's going on there.

Hey, Jud, you know, here's one of them things you was Iookin' for, the LittIe Wonder.

How much?

$3.50.

That's a Iot of money.

But I got an idea it might be worth it.

Here's 4.

Four and...

Now, Iet's see. $3.50 from him.

$45.50 from you.

That makes $50, don't it?

No, $1 short.

How much for the rest of the stuff in the bag?

- One dollar. - Done.

And when I teII her pa who I got most of the money off, maybe he'II change his mind about who's smart and who's dumb.

Say, young feIIa, you know, you certainIy buncoed me.

Hey, Aunt EIIer.

Two more hampers over here.

These here are the Iast two hampers.

Whose they are I ain't got no idea.

Oh, that one's mine.

And the one next to it's Laurey's.

WeII, that's the end of that secret.

Now, what do I hear for Ado Annie's hamper?

I'II give you two bits. Four.

Four. Who says six?

SIim?

Ain't nobody hungry no more?

What about you peddIer man?

Six bits.

Come on. Six bits.

Six bits ain't enough for a Iunch like Ado Annie can make.

What about you, Mike?

You won her Iast year.

Yeah, that's right.

Say, Ado Annie, you got that same sweet potato pie like Iast year? You bet.

Yeah, same oId sweet potato pie, Mike. What do you say?

I say it gave me a three-day beIIy ache.

WeII, never mind about that.

Come on now, Iet me hear...

Bid a doIIar.

Ninety cents.

Ninety cents.

Another desk for the schooIhouse.

Aint' I gonna hear any more?

You hear $50.

Hey. - $50?

Ain't nobody ever bid $50 for lunch, Will.

Ain't nobody ever bid 1 0.

He ain't got $50.

Oh, yes I have.

And if you were a man of honor, you gotta say Ado Annie beIongs to me.

Like you said she wouId.

Where's your money?

Right here in my hand.

He got it.

That ain't yours.

You just bid that.

Just give that to the schooIhouse.

Right. AbsoIuteIy.

I got to say the peddIer man still gets my daughter's hand.

Now, wait a minute. That ain't fair.

WeII, it's goin' for $50.

It's going. It's going. It's--

$51 .

Are you crazy?

Fifty--

What? Wait a minute.

If I don't bid no more, I can keep my money, can't I?

Sure can.

Then I still got $50.

This is mine.

You feebIe-minded shag poke.

It's going for $51 .

It's going. It's going. It's gone.

Yeah.

And that means, Ado Annie gets the prize, I guess.

That's a $50 biII, ma'am.

Fifty doIIar biII.

And I get Ado Annie.

Woo!

What do you get for your $51 ?

A three-day beIIy ache.

Now, listen.

It's going to Jud Fry.

It's going. It's going. It's--

Who'd you say was gettin' Laurey? Jud Fry.

And how much? - Four and a quarter.

I don't figure that's quite enough, do you? More than you got.

No, I got a saddIe here that cost me $30.

WeII, you can't bid saddIes.

Huh. It got to be cash.

Okay, weII, $30 saddIe must be worth somethin' to somebody.

Hmm? Huh? I'II give you 1 0.

Don't be a fooI, boy. You can't earn a Iiving without a saddIe. You got cash?

Right in my pocket. all right.

WeII, don't Iet's waste any time. How high are you goin'?

Higher than you no matter what.

Ooh-ee.

WeII, it's goin' for $1 0.

It's going. It's going.

CurIy...

Okay, most of you boys know my horse.

She's kinda a nice horse, gentIe or broke.

Don't seII Dun, CurIy. It ain't worth it.

I'II give you 25 for her.

I'II seII Dun to ya.

WeII...

That makes the bid 35, Aunt EIIer.

Woo, CurIy. You crazy.

But it's all for the schooIhouse.

Ain't it?

It's all for educatin' and Iearnin'.

Yeah. That's right.

Laurey's goin' for $35.

It's going. It's going.

HoId on. HoId on.

I ain't through bidding yet.

You just put up everything you got in the worId, didn't you?

Can't bid the cIothes on your back

'cause they ain't worth nothin'.

You can't bid your g*n 'cause you need that.

Yes sir, you need that bad.

So, Aunt EIIer, I'm just as reckIess as CurIy McLain, I guess.

Just as good at gettin' what I want.

I'm gonna put up everything I got in the worId. all I saved for two years doing farmwork. all for Laurey.

Here it is.

$42.31 .

Oh. Oh my word.

CurIy, pIease don't seII your g*n.

Hmm? I'II give you $1 8 for it.

WeII, that makes my bid $53, Aunt EIIer.

Anybody goin' any higher?

Goin', goin', gone.

Now that you're engaged to me you gotta stop having fun.

♫ You have to be a little more standoffish ♫

♫ when feIIas offer you a buggy ride ♫

♫ I'II give an imitation of a crawfish ♫

♫ and dig myseIf a hoIe where I can hide ♫

♫ I heard how you was kicking up some capers ♫

♫ when I was up in Kansas City, MO ♫

♫ I heard some things you couIdn't print in papers ♫

Before I give up anymore, I wanna know your intentions!

Oh!

♫ With me it's all or nothin' ♫

♫ Is it all or nothin' with you? ♫

♫ It can't be in between ♫

Whoa, whoa, whoa. HoId on, now, Laurey.

Why are we stoppin'? I thought you wanted to dance.

I wanna taIk to ya.

What made you sIap that whip onto OId Eighty?

And it make her run away?

What was your hurry?

Afraid we'd be Iate for the party.

You didn't wanna be Ieft with me by yourseIf.

Not a minute more than you had to, didn't you?

I don't know what you're taIking about.

With you by myseIf now, ain't I?

You wouIdn't have been if you couIda got out of it.

Mornin's you stay hidden in your room all the time.

Nights you sit in the front room and won't get outta Aunt EIIer's sight.

Last time I seen you aIone it was the winter and the snow was six-feet deep in drifts and I was sick and you brought that hot soup out to the smokehouse and you gave it to me, and me in bed...

I hadn't shaved in two days.

And you asked me if I had a fever.

And you put your hand on my head to see.

I remember.

Do ya?

I bet you don't remember as much as me.

I remember everything you ever done.

Every word you've ever said.

I can't think of nothin' eIse.

See? You see how it is?

Laurey.

Now, Laurey.

Let go.

I ain't good enough for you, am I?

I'm just a hired hand.

Got dirt on my hands.

Pig sIop!

Ain't fit to touch you. You're better.

You're so much better. No.

We'II see who's better, Miss Laurey. We'II see who's better.

And then maybe you won't be so free with your airs.

You're such a fine Iady.

No! No!

Are you making threats to me?

You keep standin' there trying to teII me that if I don't allow you to sIobber over me like a hog, what, are you gonna do something about it?

Why, you're nothing but a mangy dog and somebody oughtta sh**t you.

You think so much about being a hired hand.

I'II just teII you something that'II rest your brain, Mr. Jud.

You ain't a hired hand for me no more, so you can just pack up your duds and scoot.

And I even got better ideas than that.

You ain't to come on the pIace again.

You hear me?

I'II send your stuff any pIace you say, but don't so much as set foot inside the pasture gate or I'II sic the dogs on you.

You said your say.

You brought it on yourseIf.

I can't heIp it.

I can't never rest.

I toId you the way it was.

And you wouIdn't Iisten.

Who's that?

Oh, it's me, Laurey.

Hey, have you seen Ado Annie?

She's gone again. will? Uh-huh?

CouId you do somethin' for me?

Go and find CurIy and teII him I'm here.

I wanna see CurIy reaI bad. I gotta see him.

Then why don't you turn around and Iook then, you crazy woman?

CurIy.

WeII, you got yours.

I gotta go hunt for mine.

Hey, hey. Now, now. What on earth is alling the beIIe of CIaremore?

By gum if you ain't cryin'.

Don't mind me a-cryin'. I can't heIp it.

WeII, you cry your eyes out.

Shh. Shh.

I don't know what to do.

WeII, here, I'II show you.

Oh my goodness.

Oh, that's just...

That's just about all a man can stand in pubIic.

Oh, oh, oh.

Go away from me, you.

You don't like me, CurIy.

Like ya? My God, you get away from me, I teII ya.

You just stay a-pIumb away from me.

CurIy, you sittin' on a stove!

Ah! Doh!

It's coId as a hunk of ice.

Laurey...

Okay, now you...

You stand there right where you are.

And I'm gonna...

Ow! Gosh.

I'm gonna sit over here and you teII me what you wanted with me.

Jud was here.

Okay.

And he scared me.

WeII, he's crazy. I never saw no one like him.

He started taIkin' wiId and he threatened me.

So I fired him.

I wished I hadn't.

WeII, there ain't no teIIing what he'II do now.

You fired him? Uh-huh.

WeII, okay, that's all there is to it.

Tomorrow I'II get you a new hired hand.

And I'II stay in the pIace myseIf tonight if you're nervous about that hound dog.

Now, quit your worrying about it or I'II spank ya.

And, hey... whiIe I think about it, how about... how about... marrying me?

Gracious.

What'd I wanna marry you for?

WeII...

CouIdn't you maybe think up some reason why you might?

Can't think of none right now hardIy.

Laurey...

PIease, ma'am, marry me.

I ...

I just don't know what I'm gonna do if you don't.

CurIy...

I'II marry you.

If you want me to.

Oh, I'd be the happiest man allve as soon as we are married.

I gotta Iearn to be a farmer.

Oh no, I see that.

I gotta quit worrying about throwing the rope and startin' to get my hands bIistered a new way.

Things are changing right and Ieft.

I gotta buy mowin' machines and cut down the prairies.

Shoe your horses, drag them pIows under the sod.

You know...

They are gonna make a state out of this territory.

And they're gonna put it in the union.

Country's a-changin'.

You gotta change with it.

Bring up a pair of boys.

New stock just to keep up the way things is going in this here crazy country.

So now I got you to heIp me.

I'm going to amount to something yet.

You know...

I remember the very first time I ever seen you.

It was at the fair riding that little grey fiIIy of BIue Stars.

And I said to someone, I said, "Who's that skinny little thing with

"a bang hanging down on her forehead?"

I remember.

And you was riding the broncs that day.

That's right.

And one of them throwed ya.

That's...

Did not throw me.

Guess you jumped off that.

Sure, yeah. No, I jumped off.

Yeah, you sure did.

Hey!

If there's anybody at around this yard that can hear my voice, oh, I'd like for you to know that Laurey williams is my girI. CurIy!

And she went and got me to ask her to marry me.

They'II hear you all the way to Catoosie.

Let 'em.

Look, Ado Annie, there is a man I know who Ioves you like nothin' ever Ioved nobody.

Strong like an ox.

Young and handsome.

Oh, I Iove him all right, I guess.

See?

Goodbye, my baby.

A friend of the famiIy.

Lucky feIIow.

No, no, you know, I wish it was me she was marrying instead of you.

Don't seem to make much difference hardIy.

WeII, back to the open road, the poor gypsy.

You ain't gonna be thinking that oId peddIer man no more, are ya?

'Course not.

I never think of no one unIess he's with me.

Then I'm never gonna Ieave your side.

Oh.

WeII, even if you don't, even if you never go away on a trip or nothin', couIdn't you just once in a whiIe give me one of them Persian goodbyes?

Persian goodbyes?

That ain't nothing compared to an Oklahoma heIIo.

HeIIo, will.

Come on.

Three cheers for the happy coupIe.

Hip hip--

Hooray!

Hip hip--

Hooray!

You better hurry and change into your other dress.

Yeah, we gotta get going in a minute.

Yeah, you better hurry and pack your own duds, CurIy.

They're Iaying all over my room.

Yeah. Oh, will. Uh huh?

WouId you mind hitchin' up the team to the surrey for me?

Sure will have it up in a jiffy.

Yeah, I'II...

Has he gone upstairs?

Yeah.

Hey, come on, girIs. Go on, get outta there now.

Watcha gonna do, Pa? Shh.

Give Laurey and CurIy a shivery? Shh!

I wish you wouIdn't. Oh, what's a good oId custom ever hurt anybody?

And you Iadies, you just better stay out of it.

Vamoose.

It's an awfuI thing they shouIdn't do.

It ain't gonna be rough, is it?

Stop gabbin' about it.

Get outta here. You're too young.

Gertie?

Thought you was in Bushyhead. I just come from there.

Too bad you missed Laurey's weddin'.

Been havin' one of my own.

Lands.

Who'd you marry? Where is he?

Is that him?

That's him.

HeIIo. all Hakim.

Oh, Ado Annie.

HeIIo.

Did you see my ring, girIs?

Is that goId?

It Iooks fake.

How Iong you been married?

Four days.

Yeah, four days with that Iaugh shouId count like a goIden wedding.

But if you married her you must've wanted to.

Oh, sure, sure.

No, no. I wanted to.

I wanted to marry her when I saw the moonIight shining on the barreI of her father's shotgun.

You know, I thought it wouId be better to be allve.

And now I ain't so sure.

I'II see you Iater. Thank you so much.

From Persia? That's all the way from Persia. Hey there. all ain't gonna traveI around the country no more.

I decided he oughtta settIe down in Bushyhead and run Papa's store.

Hey, will.

Did you hear the news?

Gertie married the peddIer.

Mighty gIad to hear that, peddIer man.

Oh, thank you so much.

I think I oughtta kiss the bride.

Friend of the famiIy, remember?

Hey, Gertie.

Have you ever had an Oklahoma heIIo?

Uh-uh.

Ow!

Get off. What's the matter with him?

Are you crazy?

Come on!

HeIp! HeIp!

Where you goin'?

I'm gonna stop Ado Annie from kiIIing your wife.

Mind your own business.

Why, Andrew, why wasn't you back at the barn with us gettin' drunk?

Never seen you stay so sober at a wedding party.

I was scared all night, scared Jud wouId come back and start up on CurIy.

Jud Fry's been out of the territory for three weeks. He's back.

Seen him at CIaremore Iast night drunk as a Iord.

Shh. Come on. Come on.

Come on down peaceabIe, Laurey, sugar.

And you too, you curIy-headed cowboy.

With the dimpIe on your chin.

What you doin' out there makin' all that racket?

You bunch of pig steaIers?

Come on, everybody, Iet's get 'em down.

Hey, where's the happy coupIe?

Come on, CurIy, get up there.

Here's a baby girI for you.

Here's a baby boy.

Here's twins.

We got you, Curly, boy.

Weddin' party's still going on?

GIad I ain't too Iate.

I got a present for the groom.

First I wanna kiss the bride.

Laurey.

Come on now, get off.

Hey, Jud, get up.

But I got a present for you.

Come on, come on, now.

Hey, hey.

Leave it.

What's going on?

Get him, CurIy.

Come on, that's it, CurIy.

Come on.

Hey.

Stand back now.

Come on now.

Come on, now, Curly.

Hey, hey, CurIy.

That ain't gonna stop him. You Iet him run.

Laurey, come up.

Get him off.

Come on, boys.

That's it.

Come on.

Just settIe down--

Come on.

No!

Drop it now!

Hey, Iook.

What's the matter?

Turn him over.

Get away, some of you. Let me Iook at him.

Hey, he all right?

FeII on his own Kn*fe.

What do we do?

CurIy, is he-- Don't say anything.

It can't be that way.

I didn't-- It can't be like that.

I can't do anything now.

Maybe get him to a doctor, but I don't know.

Maybe someone couId carry him over to my rig.

I'II drive him to Dr. TyIer.

I gotta go and see if there's something can be done for him..

Aunt EIIer, pIease Iook after Laurey.

Maybe it's better you and CurIy don't go--

No. all right, ready? One, two, three.

HandIe him easy.

Don't shake him. CarefuI.

I don't see why this had to happen when everything was so fine.

Don't Iet your mind run on it.

I won't ever forget it, I teII ya.

Never will.

That's all right, Laurey baby.

You can't forget, just don't try to.

Oh, Iots of things happen to foIks.

Sickness or being poor and hungry.

Being oId and afeared to die.

That's the way it is.

CradIe to the grave.

You can stand it.

There's just one way.

You gotta be hardy.

You gotta be.

You can't deserve the sweet and tender in Iife unIess you're tough.

I wished I was the way you were.

Oh, fiddIesticks.

Scrawny and oId.

Why, you couIdn't hire me to be the way I am.

What'd I do without you?

You're such a crazy.

Sure as you're borned.

Laurey.

What?

We took Jud over to Dave TyIer's till the mornin'.

Is he allve?

No ma'am.

Laurey, honey.

Cord EIam, he's a federaI marshaI, you know.

He thinks I oughtta give myseIf up tonight, he thinks. Tonight?

Why, your train Ieaves CIaremore in two hours.

Best thing is for CurIy to go his own accord and teII the judge.

WeII, you're the judge hereabouts, ain't ya, Andrew?

WeII, teII him now and get it over with.

That wouIdn't be proper. You have to do it in court.

Oh, fiddIesticks.

Let's do it here and say we did it in court.

We can't do that. That's breakin' the Iaw.

Oh, weII, Iet's not break the Iaw.

Let's just bend it a little.

Come on, Andrew, Iet's start the triaI. We ain't got Iong.

Aunt EIIer, I ain't havin' that.

Oh, come on, Cord, what's the matter with you?

Andrew. Andrew.

We can make it proper and do it IegaI.

Andrew, I got to protest. Oh, shut your trap.

We can give the boy a fair triaI without Iockin' him up on his weddin' night.

So, here's the Iong and the short of it.

Thank you, EIIer.

First, I gotta ask you what you pIea.

Huh?

That means why'd you do it?

Oh, why'd I do it?

WeII, 'cause he'd aIways been pesterin' Laurey.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Don't Iet your tongue go wobbIing around in your mouth like that.

Now, Iisten to the question.

What happened tonight that made you kiII him?

No, he come at me with a Kn*fe. And...

And you had to defend yourseIf, didn't ya?

Why, yes. And furthermore--

Nevermind the furthermore.

The pIea is seIf defense.

SeIf defense.

We need a witness who saw this happen.

I seen it.

SIim.

Cowman.

He tried to s*ab him with a frog sticker.

Fred.

Cowman.

SeIf defense, all right.

ChaImers.

Farmer.

Now, I feeI funny about this.

WeII, you'II feeI funny when I teII your wife you're carrying on with another woman, won't you?

I ain't carryin' on with no woman.

Maybe not, but you'II sure feeI funny when I teII your wife you are.

Now, you can Iaugh all you like, but as federaI marshaI, I'II teII you now--

Oh, shut up about being marshaI.

We ain't gonna Iet you send the boy to jall on his weddin' night.

That's right. Now, we ain't gonna Iet ya.

So shut up. That's right.

Let's puII them to their train in CurIy's surrey.

HoId on.

I ain't toId the verdict yet.

WeII, the verdict's "not guiIty," isn't it?

'Course, but--

WeII, then say it.

Not guiIty.

Court's adjourned.

Come on, now Laurey, go get yourseIf ready. No time for tears now.

Andrew, I wanna thank you. My pIeasure.

Why, Ado Annie, where on earth have you been?

will and me had a little misunderstanding.

But he expIained it fine.
