2009 Studio Cast of “Allegro”
A Fellow Needs a Girl
Scene: The Taylor's Porch
(TAYLOR and MARJORIE sit side by side in the moonlight.)
[TAYLOR]
A fellow needs a girl
To sit by his side
At the end of a weary day
To sit by his side
And listen to him talk
And agree with the things he'll say
A fellow needs a girl
To hold in his arms
When the rest of his world goes wrong
To hold in his arms
And know that she believes
That her fellow is wise and strong
When things go right
And his job's well done
He wants to share the prize he's won
If no one shares
And no one cares
Where's the fun of a job wеll done?
Or a prize you've won?
A fеllow needs a home
(His own kind of home)
But to make this dream come true
A fellow needs a girl
His own kind of girl
My kind of girl is you
(The light remains on MARJORIE and TAYLOR as they sit together.)
[JOE'S VOICE]
They're funny when they're by themselves. Not like a mother and a father. A fellow and a girl. Like Jenny and me - almost
[MARJORIE]
My fellow needs a girl
To sit by his side
At the end of a weary day
So I sit by his side
And listen to him talk
And agree with the things he'll say
My fellow needs a girl
To hold in his arms
When the rest of his world goes wrong
To hold in his arms
And know that she believes
That her fellow is wise and strong
When things go right
And his job's well done
He wants to share the prize he's won
If no one shares
And no one cares
Where's the fun of a job well done?
[TAYLOR]
Or a prize you've won?
[MARJORIE]
My fellow needs a home
(His own kind of home)
But to make his dream come true
[TAYLOR]
A fellow needs to love
[MARJORIE]
His one, only love
[TAYLOR AND MARJORIE]
My only love is you
