| [00:00.76] | NELLIE:Oh Miss Jane, ain't no use of worryin'! |
| [00:04.95] | Floyd's got the luck; it circles 'round him. |
| [00:09.00] | He told me so! |
| [00:10.09] | He maybe told you one bad dream, |
| [00:13.20] | but he done tol' me hundreds of good'uns. |
| [00:15.83] | He says to me, |
| [00:17.60] | "It's gonna turn out just like a fairytale Nell." |
| [00:20.72] | He holds me right in his hands and says to me: |
| [00:24.20] | Lucky's what I am |
| [00:27.11] | Ain't no sucklin' baby lamb |
| [00:29.61] | Sure as hell don't give a damn |
| [00:32.24] | For what they think 'bout me |
| [00:34.68] | Lucky, in his way |
| [00:36.84] | Buzzin' in my gut today |
| [00:40.19] | Like a choir of crickets singin' |
| [00:43.06] | We're gonna sell some tickets, singin': |
| [00:45.62] | How's about a radio? |
| [00:47.29] | How's about a new car, y'know? |
| [00:49.90] | How's about a valley farm? |
| [00:51.96] | How's about a boy on my arm? |
| [00:54.57] | Gonna git a little respect |
| [00:56.64] | Gonna hold our heads up erect |
| [00:58.84] | Gonna show 'em what we got; |
| [01:01.11] | Show 'em what we will take |
| [01:02.77] | And will not now |
| [01:04.00] | And what we got now |
| [01:05.28] | Is a lot now |
| [01:06.88] | No, no, don't you fret; |
| [01:09.28] | I ain't told you nothing yet |
| [01:11.78] | We gonna sing a cave duet |
| [01:14.52] | Inside a magic dome |
| [01:16.52] | 'Cause being near to him |
| [01:20.73] | I know I'm truly lucky |
| [01:25.96] | Now that I've come home |
| [01:34.48] | MISS JANE:But when dreams talk, Nellie, |
| [01:36.56] | you best heed' em.You listenin' to me? |
| [01:39.11] | You learn to doubt things. |
| [01:41.48] | You don't fool with dreams like that. |
| [01:43.95] | NELLIE:Doubtin' never did us any good |
| [01:49.12] | Why'd you wanna fill us up with doubt? |
| [01:54.16] | Doubtin' never did us, no, not one lick of good; |
| [02:00.13] | Why don't you just help us out |
| [02:02.97] | Like you should? |
| [02:04.44] | Oh, let us dream some |
| [02:06.88] | MISS JANE:Go an' dream |
| [02:08.04] | NELLIE:Let us scheme a caving scheme |
| [02:10.48] | If what he says is there, is there |
| [02:13.18] | And God is good |
| [02:14.64] | And fair is fair |
| [02:15.80] | We're sittin' on a pile of dough |
| [02:17.82] | Higher than a grain silo! |
| [02:20.69] | MISS JANE:Think of all the lofty ways |
| [02:22.65] | Think of all the lazy days... |
