Well hey sunshine! Sunshine? Looks like rain to me Not in here it don't Why Frankie Epps, quit that, you hear? What? I ain't doin' anything! I'm gonna go to the picture show There's a movie I've got to see You know the one, called "The Silver Gun" Well, I been watchin' since Chapter Three I can't wait, it's at eight And I was wonderin' if you're free Go on, go on, go on, go on You know my mama'd never let me till I turn sixteen Go on, go on, go on, go on Besides I only go to pictures that I haven't seen Well when do you turn sixteen Two years from next June Too bad about your mama Too bad for you I know a spot near McConnach's lot Where you can see the parade real clear I got a book, you wanna take a look? It's called "The Theif and the Brigadier" I got gum, you want some? I haven't chewed gum fer a year! Go on, go on, go on, go on I bet your mama'd let me take you to the picture show Go on, go on, go on, go on I guess you weren't really listening when I said "No!" Why not ask Iola Stover Her mama lets her do whatever she wants I was hoping i could go with you Go on ask Iola Stover Her mama lets her see whoever she wants Well, maybe I will I hope you do Where you goin'? To the factory, I didn't get my pay this week Okay. I'll see you around At the picture show What? I thought your mama wouldn't let you She will with Essie and Betty-Jean. Just not with you Bye sunshine! De de de de de de de de de de Go on, go on, go on, go on... Well, Iola! You goin' to the pictures tonight?
