《Some People》歌词

[00:00:03] Rose: Anybody that stays home is dead.

[00:00:07] If I die it won't be from sitting,

[00:00:08] It'll be from fighting to get up and get out!

[00:00:12] Some people can get a thrill

[00:00:15] Knitting sweaters and sitting still.

[00:00:19] That's okay for some people

[00:00:23] Who don't know they're alive.

[00:00:27] Some people can thrive and bloom

[00:00:30] Living life in the living room.

[00:00:34] That's perfect for some people

[00:00:37] Of one hundred and five.

[00:00:41] But I at least gotta try

[00:00:47] When I think of all the sights that I gotta see

[00:00:50] And all the places I gotta play.

[00:00:52] All the things that I gotta be at.

[00:00:54] Come on, Papa, what do you say?

[00:00:56] Some people can be content

[00:00:59] Playing bingo and paying rent.

[00:01:03] That's peachy for some people,

[00:01:06] For some hum-drum people to be,

[00:01:13] But some people ain't me!

[00:01:20] I had a dream,

[00:01:23] A wonderful dream, Papa

[00:01:28] All about June in the Orpheum circuit.

[00:01:30] Gimme a chance and I know I can work it.

[00:01:32] I had a dream.

[00:01:36] Just as real as can be, Papa.

[00:01:40] There I was in Mr. Orpheum's office,

[00:01:44] And he was saying to me, "Rose,

[00:01:48] Get yourselves some new orchestrations,

[00:01:50] New routines and red velvet curtains.

[00:01:52] Get a feathered hat for the baby,

[00:01:54] Photographs in front of the theatre.

[00:01:56] Get an agent, and in jig time

[00:01:59] You'll be being booked in the big time."

[00:02:01] Oh, what a dream.

[00:02:04] A wonderful dream, Papa.

[00:02:08] And all that I need is eighty-eight bucks, Papa.

[00:02:14] That's what he said, Papa.

[00:02:18] Only eighty-eight bucks.

[00:02:21] Papa: You ain't gettin' eighty-eight cents from me, Rose.

[00:02:43] Rose: Well, I'll get it someplace else,

[00:02:56] But I'll get it, and get my kids out!

[00:03:19] Goodbye to blueberry pie.

[00:03:25] Good riddance to all the socials I had to go to,

[00:03:29] All the lodges I had to play,

[00:03:31] All the shriners I said hello to.

[00:03:33] Hey, L.A., I'm comin' your way!

[00:03:35] Some people sit on their butts

[00:03:38] Got the dream, yeah, but not the guts.

[00:03:42] That's living for some people,

[00:03:45] For some hum-drum people, I suppose.

[00:03:52] Well, they can stay and rot,

[00:04:01] But not Rose!
