LAUREY: Why do they think up stories that link my name with yours?
CURLY: Why do the neighbors gossip all day behind their doors?
LAUREY
I know a way to prove what they say is quite untrue;
Here is the gist, a practical list of "don'ts" for you:
Don't throw bouquets at me
Don't please my folks too much, Don't laugh at my jokes too much
People will say we're in love!
Don't sigh and gaze at me,
Your sighs are so like mine,
Your eyes mustn't glow like mine
People will say we're in love!
Don't start collecting things
Give me my rose and my glove.
Sweetheart, they're suspecting things
People will say we're in love!
CURLY
Some people claim that you are to blame as much as I
Why do you take the trouble to bake my fav'rit pie?
Grantin' your wish, I carved our initials on that tree . . .
Jist keep a slice of all the advice you give, so free!
Don't praise my charm too much, Don't look so vain with me,
Don't stand in the rain with me, People will say we're in love!
Don't take my arm too much, Don't keep your hand in mine,
Your hand feels so grand in mine, People will say we're in love!
Don't dance all night with me, Till the stars fade from above.
They'll see it's all right with me, People will say we're in love!
