Cole Porter
Tom, Dick or Harry (1999 Revised)
[GREMIO, LUCENTIO & HORTENSIO, spoken]
Baptista!

[BAPTISTA, spoken]
Gentlemen, importune me no farther
For how firmly I am resolved you know;
That is, not bestow my youngest daughter
Before I have a husband for the elder

[BIANCA, spoken]
Ah, me

[GREMIO]
I've made a haul in all the leading rackets
From which, rip-roaring rich
I happen to be
And if thou wouldst attain the upper brackets
Marry me, marry me, marry me!

[LUCENTIO]
My purse has yet to know a silver lining
Still lifeless is my wifeless
Family tree
But if for love unending thou art pining
Marry me, marry me, marry mе!
[HORTENSIO]
I come to thee a thoroughbred patrician
Still spraying my decaying
Family tree
To givе a social goose to thy position
Marry me, marry me, marry me!
