  • Music: Jule Styne
  • Lyrics: Stephen Sondheim
  • Some people can get a thrill
  • Knitting sweaters and sitting still
  • That's OK for some people
  • Who don't know they're alive
  • Some people can thrive and bloom
  • Living life in the living room
  • That's perfect for some people
  • Of one hundred and five
  • But I at least gotta try
  • When I think of
  • All the sights that I gotta see
  • All the places I gotta play
  • All the things I gotta be at
  • Come on Papa
  • What do you say?
  • Some people can be content
  • Playing bingo and paying rent
  • That's peachy for some people
  • For some hum-drum people to be
  • But some people ain't me!
  • I had a dream
  • A wonderful dream, Papa
  • All about June in the Orpheum Circuit
  • Gimme a chance and I know I can work it! I had a dream
  • Just as real as can be, Papa
  • There I was in Mr. Orpheum's office
  • And he was saying to me
  • "Rose, get yourself some new orchestrations
  • New routines and red velvet curtains
  • Get a feathered hat for the baby
  • Photographs in front of the theater
  • Get an agent and in jig time
  • You'll be being booked in the big time!"
  • Oh, what a dream!
  • A wonderful dream, Papa!
  • And all that I need is eighty-eight bucks, Papa
  • That's what he said
  • Only eighty-eight bucks
  • Goodbye to blueberry pie!
  • Good riddance to all the socials I had to go to
  • All the lodges I had to play
  • All the shruners I said hello to
  • Hey L.A. I'm comin' your way!
  • Some people sit on their butts
  • Got the dream, Yeah, but not the guts
  • That's living for some people
  • For some hum-drum people
  • I suppose
  • Well, they can stay and rot!
  • But not Rose!!!
