George Gershwin
Liza
JERRY:
Moon shining on the river
Come along my Liza…

LISE:
(Spoken) Lise!

JERRY:
Breeze singing through the treetops
Come along my Liza…

LISE:
(Spoken) Lise!

JERRY:
(Spoken) Not here, Not with me!
Something mighty sweet I wanna whisper sweet and long
That you oughta know my Liza…
(Spoken) Try it!
I get lonesome honey when I’m all alone so long
Don’t make me wait! Don’t Hesitate!
Come and hear my song…

Liza, Liza, sky’s are grey
But if you smile on me
All the clouds will roll away
Liza, Liza, don’t delay
Come keep me company
And the clouds will roll away
See, the honey moon a shining down
We should make a date Parson Brown
So, Liza, Liza, name the day
When you belong to me
And the clouds will roll away


DANCE BREAK


JERRY:
See, the honey moon a shining down
We should make a date with Parson Brown
(Spoken) Say you’ll meet me. Right Here!
Can’t a man and a woman just be friends?
In America they do it all the time

LISE:
(Spoken) I can be your friend. But no more than that

JERRY:
(Spoken) You’ll meet me?

LISE:
(Spoken) Yes, but you have to swear to never tell anyone
JERRY:
(Spoken) I swear! Oh Lise!

LISE:
(Spoken) No! Liza!
