[Verse 1]
[G]
[D]Manic Depressive Pictures
presents...
[A]Hello, [Gm]Fresno, [D]goodbye.
[Ab]Pro [Ddim]duced by[G] R .U. Ma[Gm]nic.
[G]An d direc[Gm]ted by
[D]Depressive.[Gm][G]
[A]Now you know the name
of the picture
and you'd like [Abdim]to see it, [Eb]but no.[Bb]
Screen[G]play by Gluck,
[D]from a stage play by Motz,
[G]from a story by Blipp,
from [B]a chapter by [Em]Ronk,
from a sentence by Dopes,
[B]from a comma [C]by Stokes,
from an idea by [G]Gropes,
based on a [D]Joe Miller's
[G]jokes.
[F#m]Now you know the name of the [G]picture
and who wrote it,
and [C#]you'd still like to see it. [D]But [G]no.
Odd Dir[F]ection, Finkelpuff
[E]and Thierry,
is Minerva, but photography,
Alonzo Tech recorded,
sound as Needleback,
upholstery by Zachary,
knickknackery by Thackery,
tipsickery by Dickery,
and dickery by Doc.
[A]Now finally, finally at las[G#dim]t,
[G]comes the picture.
[E]And wha[A]t do we see[E]?
The same [G#aug]old beautiful [G#]Corvus
[G]Girls.
[E]The opening scene is a [G]ranch in Fres[C]no,
[A]California.[D]
[E]So what are [D]they singing?
When it's [G]cherry blossom time in [A]Orange,
New Jersey,
[D]we'll make a peach of
[G]a pear.
I know we can't elope,
so [A]honey, do be mine.
And [D]if up from the gulch
rides a [A]hunk of man,
And he is [E]a hero, Cowboy Dan,
a galloping, yodeling buckaroo.
[G]His horse, of course,
is a baritone, [E]too.[G][B]
[E]I've got [B]the [E]old wagon wheels
inside [A]of me.
Yee -haw -haw.
[B]I've got that old cactus
in the [E]hide of me.
Yee -haw -haw.
Have I ever [B]gotten that
[E]yee -hoo -hoo?
The girls are delighted [C]to hear this.
[B]But [G]where is our heroine?
[B]As the bell rings for lunch,
we find our heroine in the corral,
eating her heart out.
[E]She is Mary Swann, tap -dancing
daughter
of an American juggling act
who left her on the doorstep of an old English
castle
where she was found by Sir Basil
Metabolism who said,
I chose a girl, baby.
[A]I shall raise [B]her as me own daughter,
which he did. But she wants to [C#m]tap dance,
a cowboy dancer
she met on this trip
and it was love at first sight
Wants to marry her so she can tap [B]dance,
but she knows
Sir Basil will never permit this
Never! Never! Never! Sir Basil!
