various artists - walkin' down the strip / scene: las vegas lyrics
[jimmy]
i was drivin’ down the strip
just drivin’ down the strip
when i saw this electric sign, several stories high
it said ”deena jones and the incredible dreams”
with an s on the end almost touchin’ the sky
i was drivin’ down the strip
just drivin’ down the strip
[lorrell, spoken]
oh, jimmy, i don’t believe it!
[jimmy, spoken]
believe and it shall be yours, baby.
[lorrell, spoken]
oh, jimmy, i miss you. i miss you so much.
[deena, spoken]
jimmy! what are you doin’ here?
[jimmy, spoken]
deena! i just took the night off from new york. i know curtis is gonna k!ll me but nothing was stopping me from seeing my little girls headlining in vegas!
[c.c., spoken]
this conductor is giving me attitude. he’s acting like this is jungle music!
[frank, spoken]
i’ll talk to him.
[deena, spoken]
now has he told her yet?
[lorrell, spoken]
child, it’s making me so nervous.
[c.c., spoken]
hey, jimmy! how’s the new act working?
[jimmy, spoken]
the new act you wrote for me? oh it’s fierce! fierce and boring. real boring, baby.
[c.c., spoken]
hey, deena, what are you doing in here? why aren’t you in the star dressing room?
[deena, spoken]
don’t start with me, c.c
[lorrell, spoken]
c.c., has curtis told effie yet?
[c.c., spoken]
he just went to her room. he’s having a hard time telling her. you know she’s been sick.
[jimmy, spoken]
effie’s sick?
[deena, spoken]
she’s not sick.
[c.c., spoken]
she must be. she’s had to miss seven performances in the last month!
[deena, spoken]
now you know what the problem is and it’s something that none of us can deal with anymore
[c.c., spoken]
none of us want to deal with each other anymore. you been noticing that, deena?
[deena, spoken]
don’t start blaming me, c.c. it’s not my fault. curtis has made his mind up so all of us might as well just stop fighting about it. you know, i got problems, too, but i don’t keep dragging everybody down with them. i keep working for you, baby, i keep working.
[frank, spoken]
deena, you only have about ten minutes.
[deena, spoken]
yes, frank, i’m coming.
[jimmy, spoken]
what is wrong with y’all?! now this is the worst case of opening night jitters i have ever seen.
[lorrell, spoken]
now, c.c., i hope she’s gonna be alright tonight.
[jimmy, spoken]
baby, don’t you worry about a thing. if worse comes to worse, c.c. can put a wig and go out there and do it himself. this vegas crowd ain’t gonna know the difference. last time i played vegas, three women thought i was tony bennett! tony bennett!
[effie, spoken]
hey, everybody, i’m sorry i’m late but i had to—
[jimmy, spoken]
effie!
[effie, spoken]
oh! oh! oh, jimmy! oh, jimmy, jimmy! you’re looking great! you know, i saw you on tv last week, and you sound like perry como now.
[jimmy, spoken]
oh no no no no no, not perry, tony! tony bennett!
[effie, spoken]
excuse me, jimmy, i’ve got to get dressed.
[c.c., spoken]
effie. effie, don’t try to make it.
[effie, spoken]
look, i’m sorry i missed rehearsals but i’m feeling much better now. i’ll make it. just get my dress.
[jimmy, spoken]
what?
[effie, spoken]
where’s my dress?
[effie, spoken]
lorrell, where’s my dress?
[mich+lle, spoken]
i’m so nervous. all those harmonies and those steps, i’ll never—
[effie, spoken]
who’s she? c.c., what’s going on? lorrell, what is going on?
[mich+lle, spoken]
it’s none of my business.
