《The Big Time》歌词

[00:00:00] The Big Time - Various Artists

[00:00:03] Hand in hand we will 'cross the land

[00:00:06] From the west coast way up to Maine

[00:00:11] Boarding train after train

[00:00:14] See the nation along vacation

[00:00:20] What's to fear we're together here

[00:00:23] But my dear before we can go

[00:00:28] Vaudeville has traditions

[00:00:31] My young wife ought to know

[00:00:37] There's the small time and the medium time

[00:00:43] And the big time and the medium small time

[00:00:48] Small time and the medium time and the big time

[00:00:53] And kiwanis hall time

[00:00:55] Big time looks down on medium time

[00:00:58] Looks down on small time

[00:00:59] Looks down on accordion players

[00:01:02] Small time

[00:01:03] Big time

[00:01:04] Big small medium time

[00:01:06] On the road from Maine to Dallas

[00:01:07] Hoping that we'll play the palace

[00:01:09] Smiles from you are a rave review

[00:01:12] Put a big time star on my door

[00:01:16] I can hear the crowds roar

[00:01:20] Spotlight hits me the spotlight fits me

[00:01:23] When you touch me and when you hold me

[00:01:26] My name lights up the marquee

[00:01:30] Just to know that you love me

[00:01:33] Is the big time for me

[00:01:43] There's a small time and a medium time

[00:01:46] And a big time and a medium small time

[00:01:50] Packing unpacking and packing we're off to altuna

[00:01:54] Tomorrow goodbye altuna

[00:01:57] Cooking scrubbing washing ironing

[00:02:00] Mend his britches feed his pony

[00:02:02] Learn to live on cold baloney

[00:02:04] Smiles from him make my senses swim

[00:02:07] I get big time feelings inside

[00:02:11] Once an ignorant bride

[00:02:14] Now I'm knowing and all aglowing

[00:02:17] When he holds me and when he loves me

[00:02:21] We're close as lovers can be

[00:02:24] On the circuit together

[00:02:28] Life is joyous and free

[00:02:31] Thank goodness we have no family

[00:02:34] There's only will and me

[00:02:38] Howdy I'm will Rogers jr'

[00:02:42] Howdy I'm Mary Rogers

[00:02:45] Howdy I'm James Rogers

[00:02:48] Howdy

[00:02:50] Well here comes freddy

[00:02:52] We're glad our dad's in vaudeville

[00:02:55] And we've got fun

[00:02:59] 'Cause we bag down in any town

[00:03:02] Not just in one

[00:03:05] Before we're bored with kids we meet

[00:03:08] We got our van

[00:03:11] There's no mean ol' school superintendent

[00:03:14] Hounding us 'cause we're independent

[00:03:18] At night our mommy reads to us

[00:03:21] And hears us pray

[00:03:25] Then we sneak to the musical

[00:03:28] Watch daddy play

[00:03:30] Scratch your skull tilt your head

[00:03:34] Make the people glad

[00:03:38] Folks ask us what we wanna be

[00:03:40] When we grow up we're gonna be

[00:03:43] Just like dad

[00:03:56] From the small time to the medium time to the big time

[00:04:00] No more medium small time

[00:04:03] Up up

[00:04:04] Climbing up up

[00:04:05] No more small time

[00:04:07] Or kiwanis hall time

[00:04:09] Finish packing let's get cracking

[00:04:12] Wear your boots it's gonna rain

[00:04:14] Do your homework on the train

[00:04:16] Smiles from us are a family plus

[00:04:19] We're together getting along

[00:04:23] Sometimes weak sometimes strong

[00:04:26] Sad or happy or mad or scrappy

[00:04:29] Nothing is easy and nothing's perfect

[00:04:32] We still complain and we fight

[00:04:35] But 'long as we stay together

[00:04:39] It's the big time for us

[00:04:42] Rogers and Rogers and Rogers Rogers

[00:04:45] Rogers Rogers

[00:04:46] It's the big time for us
