WILL: You'll have to be a little more standoffish When fellers offer you a buggy ride.
ANNIE: I'll give a imitation of a crawfish And dig myself a hole where I can hide.
WILL: I heard how you was kickin' up some capers When I was off in Kansas City Mo. I heard some things you couldn't print in papers From fellers who been talkin' like they know!
ANNIE: Foot! I only did the kind of things I oughta, sorta, To you I was as faithful as can be for me. Them stories 'bout the way I lost my bloomers - Rumors! A lot of tempest in a pot of tea!
WILL: The whole thing don't sound very good to me.
ANNIE: Well, you see.
WILL: I go and sow my last wild oat! I cut out all shenanigans. I save my money, don't gamble or drink In the back room down at Flannigans! I give up lots of other things A gentleman never mentions, But before I give up anymore, I wanna know your intentions!
With me it's all or nothin'. Is it all or nothin' with you? It can't be "in between" It can't be "now and then" No half and half romance will do! I'm a one woman man, Home lovin' type, All complete with slippers and pipe. Take me like I am, or leave me be! If you can't give me all, give me nothin' And nothin's what you'll get from me!
ANNIE: Not even somethin'?
WILL: Nothin's what you'll get from me!
ANNIE: With you it's all or nothin'. All for you and nothin' for me! But if a wife is wise, she's gotta realize That men like you are wild and free. So I ain't gonna fuss, ain't gonna frown, Have your fun, go out on the town, Stay up late and don't come home till three. And go right off to sleep if you're sleepy, There's no use waitin' up for me!
