Guys and Dolls - Sarah Brown

Sky: I am not interested in what he will not be - I am interested in what he will be. Sarah:

Don't worry, I'll know-

Havana Sky: Dulce de Leche Sarah:

Dulce de Leche. What's in it besides milk?

Sky: El Cafe Cubana, in Havana. Sarah:

El Cafe Cubana, Havana?

Havana - with guide book Sarah:

El Santo Cristo, the second oldest Mission in Cuba - come on!

Sky: Will I see you tomorrow? Sarah:

Everyone is welcome at the Mission.

Sky: Of course. Sarah:

Here are two of our pamphlets I'd like you to read. They will give you a good deal of comfort.

Sky: Oh, it's wonderful- Sarah:

Here is another pamphlet that I think you should read.

Havana Sky: Sounds like a million laughs. Sarah:

Here is buried Christopher Columbus.

sky: that's wonderful Adelaide - You know Miss Sarah. Sarah:

How do you do.

Sky: Do you take sinners here? Arvide: Indeed, we do! - Sarah! Sarah:

How do you do?

Sky: Look, a doll like you shouldn't be mixed up with a guy like me. It's no good. I'm no good. You know why I took you to Havana? I made a bet! That's how you met me in the first place. I made a bet. Sarah:

How else would a girl get to meet a gambler?

After If I Were A Bell Sarah:

Havana is so wonderful. Why don't we stay here for a few days so we can see how wonderful it's really like.

Sky: Where do you want to eat? Howard Johnson's! Sarah:

Havana!

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Have a headache Sarah:

Have a baby

Sky: Thank you. Sarah:

And we're holding a midnight prayer meeting on Thursday, which I'm sure you will wish to attend.

Sky: I'll make you a proposition. When is this big meeting of yours - Thursday? I will guarantee to fill that meeting with one dozen genuine sinners. I will also guarantee that they will sit still and listen to you. Sarah:

And what's my end of the bargain?

Arvide: And some day they'll be praying there. Even a man like Sky Masterson. He came seeking refuge. Sarah:

He came seeking me. Did you know that?

Arvide: But if you love him enough - Sarah:

He will not be a gambler.

Sky: Except me. I am relieved to know that it's just me personally and not all guys in general. It is nice to know that somewhere in the world there's a guy who much appeal to the Sergeant. I wonder what this guy will be like? Sarah:

He will not be a gambler.

Arvide: Well, very few people will be there - in fact, nobody. and, uh - Sarah:

I don't think Mr. Masterson is interested in our troubles, Grandfather. We've got to hurry.

Sky: I think we'd better hurry if we want to catch the plane back to New York. Sarah:

I don't want to go back to New York.

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: You've got the guy all figured out. Sarah:

I have.

Brannigan: I'll do my testifying in court, where I will testify that you ran a crap game here in the Mission last night. Miss Sarah, you were standing there when they came out. You saw them. Aren't these the fellows? Sarah:

I never saw them before in my life.

Sky: Why not? The plane gets us there in five hours and back the same night. And the food is great. Sarah:

I now realize, Mr. Gambler, when you were describing the blackness of your heart, you didn't do yourself justice.

Sky: I need private lessons. Why don't we have dinner or something? Sarah:

I think not, Mr. Masterson.

Adelaide: A darling little fellow with a cute mustache? Sarah:

I think so.

Adelaide: Don't tell me. Nobody cried like that over an old guy - whoever it is, you got it bad. You know, when I saw you with Sky Masterson the other night - oh no! Not Sky! You're not in love with Sky? You poor thing! Sarah:

I thought I hated him.

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: I'll drop in again in case you want to take a crack at the other cheek. Sarah:

I won't take a chance. My love will be just what I need. Not some fly by night Broadway romance. And till then, I shall wait. And till then, I'll be strong. For I'll know when my love comes along.

Sky: I'm sure - Miss Sarah, I hope you will not think I am getting out of line, but I think it is wonderful to see a pretty doll - uh - nice looking lady like you - sacrificing herself for the sake of others. Staying here in this place - do you ever go any place else? Travel or something? Sarah:

I would like to go to Africa.

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: No, no, no - you're talking about love. You can't dope it up like that. What are you picking, a guy or a horse? Sarah:

I wouldn't expect a gambler to understand.

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: And you'll know at a glance by the two pairs of pants. Sarah:

I'll Know by the calm steady voice. Those feet on the ground. I'll Know as I run to his arm that at last I'll be home safe and sound. And till then, I shall wait. And till then, I'll be strong. For, I'll Know when my love comes along.

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: I'll Know long before we can speak. I'll Know in my heart. I'll Know and I won't ever ask "Am I right? Am I wise? Am I smart?" But I'll stop and I'll stare at that face in the throng. Yes, I'll Know when my love... Sarah:

I'll Know. When my love comes along.

I've Never Been In Love Before lyrics Sky: So please forgive this helpless haze I'm in. I've really never been in love before. Sarah:

I've never been in love before Now all at once it's you It's you forever more I've never been in love before I thought my heart was safe I thought I knew the score But this is wine that's all too strange and strong I'm full of foolish song And out my song must pour So please forgive this helpless haze I'm in I've really never been in love before

Adelaide: For fourteen years I've tried to change Nathan. I've always thought how wonderful he would be, if he was different. Sarah:

I've thought about Sky that way, too.

Adelaide: You've got a boyfriend named Isaiah, huh? Sarah:

Isaiah was an ancient prophet.

Sky: Sorry. "No peace into the wicked." - Isaiah, Chapter 57, Verse 22. Isaiah? Sarah:

Isaiah.

Sky: That's not proverbs - It's Isaiah. Sarah:

It's Proverbs.

Sky: That's not what I mean. Sarah:

It's no good. You said it yourself - it's no good.

Sky: How do you like it? Sarah:

It's so peaceful and wonderful.

Havana Sky: Bacardi. Sarah:

It's very good. I'll have another one. Doesn't Bacardi have alcohol in it?

Agatha: By the way, you spoke beautifully this morning, Sarah. Sarah:

No, I can't reach these people. I should never have volunteered for this post - well, let's go in to lunch. And I was going to convert Broadway all by myself. I was going to take these gamblers and have them just begging to come to the Mission.....General Cartwright!

SKY: Come on! Sarah:

No, no!

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: Would you like to hear how a gambler feels about the big heart throb? Sarah:

No.

Sky: That's a little far. But there are a lot of wonderful places just a few hours from New York, by plane. Ever been on a plane? Sarah:

No.

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Slowly introduce him to the better things Respectable, conservative, and clean Sarah:

Readers Digest

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Guy Lombardo! Sarah:

Rogers Peet!

Havana - To waiter Sky: Dulce de Leche Sarah:

These are delicious. What did you call them?

SKY: I don't know. Four o'clock. Sarah:

This is your time of day, isn't it? I've never been up this late before.

SKY: Sarah, you know I had nothing to do with this, don't you? Sarah! Sarah:

This wouldn't have happened if I hadn't - I never should have gone with you. It was wrong.

Sky: It'll take us some time to get there. Sarah:

To get where?

Havana Sky: Where to? Sarah:

To see the oldest - "Don't miss the dungeons where prisoners were thrown to the sharks."

Agatha: Yes, he attended every street meeting we had this morning. He must be interested in our work. Sarah:

Very.

Arvide: Good morning, General. Sarah:

We didn't know you were coming to town, General.

Sky: Fine old gentleman. I suppose he sort of - looks after you? Sarah:

We look after each other.

Act two, scene two Arvide: Not so fast, Sarah, not so fast. Look, suppose we don't have a big meeting tonight - suppose nobody is there at all. We'll explain it to the General. Sarah:

We won't have to explain - it'll be very clear. I just want to get away from this whole place. To go someplace where - where -

Sky: Well, lyin's a sin - Look, I'm a big sinner. If you get me, it's eight to five the others'll follow. You need sinners, don't you? Sarah:

We're managing.

Act one, scene six (lights up - Mission band enters) Sarah:

Well, we finally lost him.

Act two, scene seven Sky: Congratulations, Nathan! I'll lay you eight to five you'll be very happy. Sarah:

What Obediah means is-

Sky: Yeah. I guess so. Sarah:

What time is it?

Havana Sky: Oh, sugar, and a kind of native flavoring. Sarah:

What's the name of the flavoring?

Sky: I'm hungry - Here! Sarah:

What's this?

Arvide: My name is Abernathy. Arvide Abernathy. Sky: Sky Masterson. Sarah:

What's wrong?

Sky: Sorry, just blossoming under the warmth of your kindness - hey - that's wrong. Sarah:

What's wrong?

The Happy Ending lyrics

When you see a guy Reach for stars in the sky You can bet that he's doing it for some doll When you spot a John Waiting out in the rain Chances are he's insane As only a John can be for a Jane When you meet a gent Paying all kinds of rent For a flat that could flatten the Taj Mahal Call it sad, call it funny But it's better than even money That's the guys only doing it for some doll

Sky: To my favorite restaurant. Sarah:

Where is that?

Sky: Uh huh. I suppose if either of you goes someplace, the other goes along? Sarah:

Yes, of course.

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: You have wished yourself a Scarsdale Galahad. The breakfast eating Brooks Brothers type. Sarah:

Yes. And I shall meet him when the time is ripe.

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Now doesn't that kind of apply to you and I? Sarah:

You and me

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: You've simply got to gamble Sarah:

You get no guarantee

Havana Sky: Only enough to act as a preservative. Sarah:

You know - this would be a wonderful way to get children to drink milk. Two Dulce de Leche.

Adelaide: I'm afraid that might confuse her - maybe I'll tell her Nathan is dead, and then see to it. Sarah:

You mustn't carry hate in your heart, Miss Adelaide. Try to be forgiving and understanding, and the pain will go away. In the Bible it tells us in Isaiah - Isaiah - Isaiah -

Arvide: Where the sinners are all respectable and well behaved? Sarah:

You saw what happened last night. They gambled - in our Mission.

After I've Never Been In Love Before Sarah:

Grandfather! I thought you'd be asleep.

Sky: And I now realize, Sister Sarah, that no matter how beautiful a Sergeant is, she's still a Sergeant. Sarah:

Please go away.

Nathan: Obediah? Sarah:

- he wishes you every happiness and so do I.

Act one, scene eight (Havana, Cuba - reading a menu) Sarah:

A ham sandwich.

Adelaide: But they just can't change. Sarah:

A little while ago at our prayer meeting there were a lot of gamblers who acted as though maybe they could change.

Havana Sky: At least he's lying down. How about a drink? Sarah:

A milkshake, please.

Adelaide: I thought I hated Nathan. I still think I hate him. That's love. Sarah:

Adelaide - can't men like Sky ever change?

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: Including what he smokes. All figured out, huh? Sarah:

All figured out. I'll Know when my love comes along. I won't take a chance. For oh, he'll be just what I need. Not some fly by night Broadway romance.

Havana Sky: Take it easy, slugger. It's over and you're still champ. Are you all right? Sarah:

Am I all right!

Sky: Possibly. I have been wandering around, trying to get up the courage to come here. Sarah:

And you're willing to give up gambling?

If I Were A Bell lyrics Sarah:

Ask me how do I feel Ask me now that we're cozy and clinging Well, sir, all I can say is, If I were a bell I'd be ringing From the moment we kissed tonight That's the way I've just got to behave Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light And if I were a banner I'd wave Ask me how do I feel Little me with my quiet upbringing Well, sir, all I can say If I were a gate I'd be swinging And if I were a watch I'd start popping my spring Or if I were a bell I'd go Ding, dong, ding dong ding Ask me how do I feel From this chemistry lesson I'm learning Yes, chemistry Well, sir, all I can say is If I were a bridge I'd be burning Yes I knew my morale would crack From the wonderful way that you looked Boy if I were a duck I'd quack Or if I were a good I'd be cooked Ask me how do I feel Ask me now that we're fondly caressing Pal- If I were a salad I know I'd be splashing my dressing Ask me how to describe This whole beautiful thing Well, if I were a bell I'd go ding, dong, ding dong ding

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: At Wanamaker's and Saks and Klein's A lesson I've been taught. You can't get alterations on a dress you haven't bought. Sarah:

At any vegetable market from Borneo to Nome You mustn't squeeze a melon Till you get the melon home

Sky: Sky Masterson's marker for twelve sinners. If you don't think it's good, ask anybody in town. IOU - one dozen sinners. I'll pick you up at noon tomorrow, for dinner. Sarah:

At noon?

Act one, Scene one (After end of song, Sarah immediately goes into her speech)

Brothers and Sisters, resist the Devil and he will flee from you. That is what the Bible tells us. And that is why I am standing here in the Devil's own city on the Devil's own street, prepared to do battle with the forces of evil. Hear me, you gamblers! With your dice, your cards, your horses! Pause and think before it is too late! You are in great danger - I am not speaking of the prison and the gallows but the greater punishment that awaits you! Repent before it is too late! Just around the corner is our little Mission where you are always welcome to seek refuge from this jungle of sin. Come here and talk to me. Do not think of me as Sergeant Sarah Brown but as Sarah Brown, your sister. Join me, Brothers and Sisters, in resisting the Devil and we can put him to flight forever. Remember, friends, it is the Save A Soul Mission located at 409 West 49th Street, open all day and all night, with a special prayer meeting this Thursday at —-

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Ovaltine! Sarah:

But marry the man today Handle it meek and gently

Arvide: Close the Mission! Sarah:

But, General, please! Someone can do good here, even if I can't.

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Marry the man today And train him subsequently Sarah:

Carefully expose him to domestic life And if he ever tried to stray from you Have a pot roast

I'll Know lyrics: Sky: Mine will come as a surprise to me. Mine, I leave to chance - and chemistry. Sarah:

Chemistry?

Brannigan: I've seen a lot of strange things in my time but this is the first time I ever see a floating crap game going full blast in a MISSION. Sarah:

Crap game!

SKY: No, it wasn't. You went to help the Mission. Sarah:

Did I?

Arvide: Agatha! Coffee! Sarah:

Didn't I see you a little while ago on Broadway?

Follow The Fold lyrics

Follow the fold and stray no more, stray no more, stray no more. Put down the bottle and we'll say no more. Follow - before you take another swallow. Follow The Fold and stray no more, stray no more, stray no more. Tear up your poker deck and play no more. Follow, follow The Fold. To the meadows, where the sun shines - out of the darkness. And the sin and shame in which you wallow. Follow The Fold and stray no more, stray no more, stray no more. If you're a sinner and you pray no more - follow, follow The Fold.

Follow The Fold reprise

Follow the fold and stray no more, stray no more, stray no more. Put down the bottle and we'll say no more. Follow, follow the fold. Follow the fold and stray no more, stray no more, stray no more.

I'll Know Lyrics: beginning Sarah:

For I've imagined every bit of him. From his strong moral fiber to the wisdom in his head. To the homey aroma of his pipe.

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Golf! Sarah:

Galoshes!

Act two, scene five Arvide: Maybe your watch is fast. Sarah:

General, I know what's wrong. I'm wrong. I've failed. I've spoken to these people day after day, but my words haven't reached them - I think you had better -

General: Well, if I thought the Mission had a chance - Sarah:

General, I personally guarantee you one dozen genuine sinners.

Adelaide: Oh, hello. Sarah:

Good evening

Adelaide: How do you like that rat! Just when he should have been lying he's telling the truth! I'm glad I'm through with him. And you ought to be glad you're through with Sky, too. Sarah:

I am.

Sky: Lets be honest. This Mission is laying an egg. Why don't you let me help you? I'll bet I can fill this place with sinners. Sarah:

I don't bet.

Sky: Why don't you change your pitch, Sarge - come to the mission one and all, except guys. I hate guys! Sarah:

I don't hate anybody.

Sky: Thank you - of course I will need a lot of personal help from you. My heart is as black as two feet down a wolf's gullet. Sarah:

I'll be speaking at the Thursday prayer meeting.

Arvide: Are you kidding? I knew that the minute he started picking on you. But I didn't know you were going to get stuck on him. Sarah:

I'll get over it.

Sky: Why not? What the hell kind of doll are you, anyway? Sarah:

I'm a Mission doll.

Adelaide: Yes, but that doesn't mean - gamblers at your prayer meeting - was Nathan Detroit there? Sarah:

I'm sure I heard that name.

Arvide: We followed your suggestion and stayed out all night. We spoke to a lot of sinners - where have you been, Sarah? Sarah:

I've been to Cuba.

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Marry the man today Trouble though he may be Much as he loves to play Crazy and wild and free Sarah:

Marry the man today Rather than sigh and sorrow Marry the the man today And change his ways tomorrow Marry the man today Maybe he's leaving town Don't let him get away Hurry and track him down Marry the man today Give the girlish laughter Give him your hand today And save the fist for after

SKY: I cannot welch a marker. Sarah:

Mr. Masterson, last night the Mission was filled with your friends. Let us say we're even.

SKY: Obediah! Sarah:

Obediah? What's that?

General: No, I don't have time, dear. I have several other calls to make - Sarah, we at headquarters have come to a definite conclusions. We have decided to close this branch of the Mission. Sarah:

Oh no.

Adelaide: The twelfth is never. Sarah:

Oh, I'm sorry.

General: I got in early this morning. I've spent the last hour trying to find you. Sarah:

Oh, I'm sorry. We've been holding some extra street meetings, trying to stimulate more interest -

Adelaide: I'm Adelaide, the well known fiancee. Sarah:

Oh, yes. When are you getting married.

Sky: I got to think what's best for you. Sarah:

Oh, you talk just like a Missionary.

Adelaide: I didn't even get close enough to a church to be left at it - Gee, what'll I ever tell my mother? Sarah:

Oh, your mother will understand. Just tell her your engagement is broken.

SKY: Miss Adelaide certainly seems happy. Sarah:

She's in love.

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Have two Sarah:

Six

Act two scene six Adelaide meets Sarah lyrics Sarah:

So please forgive This helpless haze I'm in I've really never been In love before

Act one, scene two (lights up)

Some day I'm going to get a pick axe and rip up Broadway from end to end.

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Nine Sarah:

Stop! Marry the man today Rather than sigh and sorrow Marry the man today And change his ways And change his ways And change his ways Tomorrow

Sky: What's wrong with the Bible? Besides, in my business the strangest information frequently comes in handy. I once won five G's on a parlay, Shadrach, Mischach, and Abednego. Sarah:

Tell me, Mr. Masterson, why are you here?

Act one, scene ten - New York Sarah:

Thank you for bringing me back, I must have behaved very badly.

Sky: Miss Sarah. You've forgotten something, but being a gambler, I never forget things like this. You hold my marker for twelve sinners tonight. Sarah:

Thank you, Mr. Masterson, but I'd rather you forgot about it.

Arvide: What do you want to get over it for? It isn't pneumonia. Sarah:

The man I love will not be a gambler.

Sky: Have dinner with me. Sarah:

Why do you want to have dinner with me?

Marry The Man Today lyrics Adelaide: Why not? Sarah:

Why not what?

General: Good morning - Sarah, there's something I want to talk to you about. Sarah:

Won't you come inside - have some lunch with us?

Adelaide: I've sat and pictured him by the hour. Nathan - my Nathan - in a little home in the country - happy - Gee, wouldn't it be wonderful! Sarah:

Wouldn't it - if only Sky -

Nathan: I made a bet with a certain guy that he could not take a certain doll away with him on a trip, and this I should not have done, although it did not do any harm, as I won the bet. Sarah:

You won the bet?

Sky: I told you. I'm a sinner. Sarah:

You're lying.

Sky: I'm taking you back! Sarah:

You're no gentleman.

Sky: There are two things been in every hotel room in the country. Sky Masterson, and the Gideon Bible. I must have read the Good Book ten or twelve times. Sarah:

You've read the Bible twelve times?
