original london cast of the music man – iowa stubborn lyrics
[townspeople]
oh, there’s nothing halfway
about the iowa way to treat you
when we treat you
which we may not do at all
there’s an iowa kind of special
chip+on+the+shoulder attitude
we’ve never been without
that we recall
we can be cold
as a falling thermometer in december
if you ask about our weather in july
and we’re so by god stubborn
we could stand touchin’ noses
for a week at a time
and never see eye+to+eye
but what the heck, you’re welcome
join us at the picnic
you can have your fill
of all the food you bring yourself
you really ought to give iowa a try
provided you are contrary
[man 1]
good morning mayor shinn
[man 2]
good morning mayor shinn
[mayor shinn]
it is mr. dodds, if you want to go round in your underpants all day
[alma]
and there i was in madison hospital and n0body’d come to see me. cousin will never come. aunt bertha never come
[ethel]
your aunt bertha is dead
[alma]
she wouldn’ta come anyway
[townspeople]
we can be cold
as our falling thermometer in december
if you ask about our weather in july
and we’re so by god stubborn
we can stand touchin’ noses
for a week at a time
and never see eye+to+eye
but we’ll give you our shirt
and a back to go with it
if your crop should happen to die
[farmer]
so, what the heck, you’re welcome
glad to have you with us
[farmer’s wife]
even though we may not ever mention it again
[townspeople]
you really ought to give iowa
hawkeye iowa
dubuque, des moines
davenport, marshalltown
mason city, keokuk, ames
clear lake
ought to give iowa a try
