“YOU CAN’T KEEP A GOOD DOG DOWN”
performed by Burt Reynolds and Dom DeLuise
CHARLIE- Why settle for a couple of bones when you can have the whole bank?
ITCHY-Charlie, you did it! You hit the jackpot! Atta boy, Charlie! I’m proud of ya! Charlie, tell ‘em!
CHARLIE- Oh, you can’t keep a good dog down
ITCHY- No sir!
CHARLIE- No, you can’t keep a good dog down
I’ve seen pain and hurt
ITCHY- That’s right!
CHARLIE- I’ve eaten dirt
ITCHY- That’s true!
CHARLIE- It’s hard to buy
But even I’ve
Been jilted by a skirt
ITCHY- He lies.
CHARLIE- Look how I’m still around
‘Cause you can’t keep a good dog down
ITCHY- You can’t keep a good dog down
No, no, no!
CHARLIE- No, you can’t.
ITCHY- No, you can’t keep a good dog down
CHARLIE- I’ve been bought and sold
ITCHY- He’s been warm and cold
CHARLIE- But ten to one
I’ll still be running
Rackets when I’m old
ITCHY- Not in some cage in the city pound
CHARLIE & ITCHY- ‘Cause you can’t keep a good dog
Can’t keep a good
I say, you can’t keep a good dog down
ITCHY- In him’s the luck of the Irish
CHARLIE- The pride of the German
ITCHY- Even a bit of Siam
CHARLIE- Siam? You’ve seen the calm of the English
ITCHY- The charm of the Spanish
CHARLIE- A pedigree certainly ain’t what I am
So call me a mixed up pup
ITCHY- You’re a mixed up pup!
CHARLIE- But the only way this pup knows is up
CHARLIE & ITCHY- No, you can’t keep a good dog do-wow-wow-wow-wown
You can’t keep a good dog do-wow-wow-wow-wown
ITCHY- He’s been fat and thin
CHARLIE- I’ve been out and in
ITCHY- He tried a life of virtue
CHARLIE- But prefer a life of sin
CHARLIE & ITCHY- So tonight, man, we own this town
CHARLIE- I’ve known hunger, I’ve known thirst
Lived the best and seen the worst
But the only way I know to finish
Is to finish first
CHARLIE& ITCHY- So watch out when you hear this sound
Aroo! Aroo! Aroo! Aaaarroooooooooooo!
‘Cause you can’t keep a good dog
No you can’t keep a good
I say you can’t keep a good dog
Dow-wow-wow-wown
ALL DOGS- You can’t keep a good dog down
CHARLIE & ITCHY- Woof!
“LET ME BE SURPRISED”
performed by Burt Reynolds and Melba Moore
CHARLIE- W-where am I?
WHIPPET- This is the great hall of judgment.
CHARLIE- Judgment?
WHIPPET- Oh, not to worry, Charlie. You’ll go to Heaven. All dogs go to Heaven because, unlike people, dogs are naturally good and loyal and kind.
CHARLIE- Oh, yeah, that’s true.
WHIPPET- Welcome to doing whatever you wish
CHARLIE- Aw, this is really a lovely place you’ve got here.
WHIPPET- Eating whenever you please--follow me--to a constant temperate climate
We keep it seventy-three degrees--we’re still on Fahrenheit here
CHARLIE- That’s fine with me.
WHIPPET- Welcome to no more rat race
CHARLIE- Oh boy!
WHIPPET- To order and calm instead
CHARLIE- Aw, great!
WHIPPET- Welcome...to being dead
CHARLIE- What? You mean I’m...I’m...?
WHIPPET- Stone-cold, I’m afraid.
CHARLIE- I can’t believe it! I’ve been murdered!
WHIPPET- I’m having trouble finding any goodness or loyalty here, but let me see.
CHARLIE- He killed me!
WHIPPET- I beg your pardon?
CHARLIE- There’s a mistake been made here!
I don’t wanna die
You’ve got the wrong guy
I was double-crossed by a dirty rat
Actually this rat was a dog
But his car ran me down
I just blew out of jail
I just got back to town
Hey, this is hard to explain
May I speak to your superior
‘Cause I don’t wanna die!
WHIPPET- Welcome to doing whatever you wish
CHARLIE- You’ve got the wrong guy
WHIPPET- Laughing and singing all day
CHARLIE- Hey! Listen, my time’s not up yet!
WHIPPET- Oh, it is. There’s no mistake about that. We know everything.
CHARLIE- Murdered in the prime of my life! That Carface, I’ll kill him! Hey, this must be the watch department, huh?
WHIPPET- Well, you might call it that. See, this watch is your life...and it’s stopped.
CHARLIE- Well, can’t you just wind it up or something?
WHIPPET- And send you back? Oh, no, no, no, no. No one’s ever allowed to go back. Just put your paw right here.
CHARLIE- What’s that for?
WHIPPET- For our book of records. You see, everything about you that was or will be is right here.
CHARLIE- Oh, isn’t that wonderful? I love it here. You mean there’s no surprises or anything?
WHIPPET- Oh, no, no, no. We know everything.
CHARLIE- That’s just lovely. The clouds, the grass, the air.
WHIPPET- Heaven is a wonderful place.
CHARLIE- Yeah. No surprises, huh? Say...would you like to dance? You mean if I’m waiting for an inside straight up here, I’d know in advance whether I filled it?
WHIPPET- We know how it all turns out.
CHARLIE- You must have studied dancing. You have natural rhythm--unusual for a whippet.
WHIPPET- Oh, I’m getting dizzy!
CHARLIE- Everything is so lovely here. So planned, so ordered...and that’s what’s driving me crazy!
I need Brazil--the throb, the thrill
I’ve never been there, but someday I will
Adventure and danger, love from a stranger
Let me be surprised--la-da-da-da-da-da-ba-ba-ba
Today there’s sun, they said there’d be snow
When all’s said and done, it’s fun not to know
What keeps my heart humming is guessing what’s coming
Let me be surprised
Oh, ain’t it great
WHIPPET- Ain’t it great
CHARLIE- When fate makes you wait
WHIPPET- La-la-la-la-la-la-la
CHARLIE- The world seems mirthless
You feel worthless
And suddenly there’s a big bone on your plate
WHIPPET- Oh, Charlie, please remember
Down there’s a world of used cars and singles’ bars
Broken dreams and out of reach stars
CHARLIE- But it isn’t over, not for this Rover
I don’t like to steal, but I don’t buy this deal
In ‘bout three seconds, she’ll have realized
WHIPPET- Ohhh...
CHARLIE- And she’s gonna be
WHIPPET- Charlie, what are you doing?
CHARLIE- Wait ‘til you see
WHIPPET- What’s that you have behind your back?
CHARLIE- She’s gonna be
WHIPPET- Charlie! Don’t wind that watch!
CHARLIE- Surprised...
WHIPPET- Charlie!
“WHAT’S MINE IS YOURS”
performed by Burt Reynolds
CHARLIE- All right, it’s only a pizza, fellas. Come on. Do you mind sharing? Hey no, come on, don’t fight! All right, I’m gonna tell you something about sharing.
What’s mine is yours, what’s yours is mine
The more you share, the more the sun will shine
What’s mine is yours, what’s yours--hey! Will you give me that pizza? Look, stop it! This is not right. You shouldn’t be fighting. Listen to Uncle Charlie!
Whether you’re the boss or someone’s pet
The more you give, the more you’re gonna get
PUPPIES- You’ve got a little or a lot
You’ve got to share ‘cause you know what
Each other’s all that we have got
The sun will shine if you share all the time
CHARLIE- What’s mine is yours, what’s yours is mine
PUPPIES- You’ve got a little or a lot
You’ve got to share ‘cause you know what
Each other’s all we’ve got
The sun will shine if you share all the time
CHARLIE- The more you share, the more the sun will shine
PUPPIES- If you share all the time
CHARLIE- Whether you’re the boss or someone’s pet
PUPPIES- If you’re the boss or just a pet
I’m willing now to make a bet
CHARLIE- The more you give
PUPPIES- The more you give, the more you get
CHARLIE- The more you’re gonna get
PUPPIES- More than you had
CHARLIE- The more you’re gonna get
PUPPIES All your life
CHARLIE & PUPPIES- The more you’re gonna get
PUPPIES- All your life the more you’re gonna get
“SOON YOU’LL COME HOME”
performed by Lana Beeson
ANNE-MARIE- All I have is a picture
In my mind how it would be
If we were together
Let’s pretend that you’re far away
Let’s say you write to me
And you promise in your letter
That you’ll come home
Come home to my heart
When you come home
We’ll never be apart
If I keep dreaming of you
Start believing it’s true
Soon you’ll come home
Soon you’ll come home
Soon you’ll come home to my heart
Soon you’ll come home
Home to my heart
Soon you’ll come home
Home to my heart
If I believe
“LET’S MAKE MUSIC TOGETHER”
performed by Burt Reynolds and Ken Page
KING GATOR- I can’t eat a singer! I never could, I never will. What do you call that voice, little fella? That a baritone or a tenor?
CHARLIE- It’s, uhh...
KING GATOR- Oh, I don’t care. It’s just you and me.
Let’s make music together
Let’s make sweet harmony
Oh, let’s make music together, baby
You take the “do”, I’ll take the “ray”
You better hang on to me
We are birds of a feather
Looking for the right key
Oh, let’s make music together, baby
‘Cause only music makes a man free
Gonna make a beautiful song
Sing along
Gonna let that natural beat
Move your feet
When the music’s deep down in you
There’s nothing that you can do
But believe, oh believe
There ain’t nothing like singing
And our voices just blend
Oh
KING GATOR & CHARLIE- Let’s make music together, baby
Lift our voices together, partner
Let’s make music together, baby
And we’ll always be friends
KING GATOR- We’ll be friends!
CHARLIE- Let’s make music together
KING GATOR & CHARLIE- Let’s make sweet harmony
KING GATOR- Let’s make music together, baby
Oh, this is for you, Mama
Oh, let’s make music together
Let’s make sweet harmony, ho-ho-ho...
“LOVE SURVIVES”
performed by Irene Cara and Freddie Jackson
Now I know you’re safe here in my heart
You will always be with me
We’ll never be apart
Never knew how strong my love could be
You’re the one I’ve waited for
Now you’re home
I believe
Love survives beyond our lives
I feel those ties growing stronger
Love survives the tears we’ve cried
Yes, love survives it all
Love survives it all
Even when we want to run and hide
Love comes in to pull us through
From deep inside
Oh, the magic has made us who we are
Don’t you see we’ve come so far
Take my hand
You made me understand
Love survives beyond our lives
I feel those ties growing stronger
Love survives the tears we’ve cried
Yes, love survives it all
Love survives it all
Love survives beyond our lives
I feel those ties growing stronger
Love survives the tears we’ve cried
Yes, love survives it all
Love survives it all
Love survives it all
