James Durante, gives a newcomer…

老把式James Durante正在
…a few pointers in It Happened in Brooklyn.
指导一个新手。
DURANTE:
Sing it, Danny, make me proud.
Okay, Nick, stand back.
It doesn’t have to be witty or smart
Smile.
Long as it comes from the heart
Keep going.
It doesn’t have to be classic or rock
Great.
Long as it comes from the heart
I’ll give ’em that
I’ll give ’em this
I’ll strut away
Boy! You can’t miss!
Just put a star on my chart
You won’t need this anymore.
‘Cause the song’s gonna come
From the heart
Don’t work cheap.
– On opening nights
– On opening nights
– Your name in lights
– Your name in lights
Why we won’t stop
‘Til you reach the top
– We’ll order our meal la carte
– We’ll order our meal la carte
– That’s expensive!
– That’s expensive!
– If the song comes from the heart
– lf the song comes from the heart
We’ll be tremendous!
– If the song comes from the heart
– lf the song comes from the heart
They’ll holler, “Bravo.”
– If the song
– lf the song
– Comes from the heart
– Comes from the heart
– Heart
– Heart

HORNE:
Honeysuckle rose
When we’re passin’ by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You’re much sweeter
Goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
I don’t buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You’re my sugar
It’s sweet when you stir it up
When I’m takin’ sips
From your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You’re confection
Goodness knows
You’re my honeysuckle rose
– ‘Cause it’s one
– Two

– At the old ball game
