Well I better shove off soon. Gotta get to a party. Say maybe you'd like to go with me.
Rose (Spoken):
A party? Oh well I um...
Eddie (Spoken):
Well if you don't want to go just say so.
Rose (Spoken):
Well it's just...I mean...I just met you.
Eddie (Sung):
Well you know my birthday now. Shown you my middle name.
See I'm an open book, have a look, this aint no pick up game.
I heard your pretty voice, then we saw eye to eye on all that music stuff,
not on fluff, we didn't have to try. Now isn't that rare, that kind of connection.
So why not come to a party with me, so why not come to this party.
A five piece band I'll take your hand Rose and twirl you around.
Buy you a drink, don't stop you think, say yes. Come to a party with me, just say yes.
Rose (Spoken):
I don't know Eddie.
Eddie (Spoken):
My old man's always sayin you can't steal second base with your foot on first.
Sometimes you've gotta gamble Rose, you can bet on me.
Eddie (Sung):
Born in Buffalo, to humble Christian folks. My old man raised me right, real polite, no tellin dirty jokes.
A Wally Cleaver type, eat every brussels sprout,
my mama's pride and joy, golden boy, your average Eagle scout.
Now look in these eyes, they aint gonna hurt you.
So why not come to a party with me. Come on! It's just a party.
A great excuse to cut it loose Rose and do what you feel. Hey just for a night, no holdin tight, let go.
Let's go. Come to a party with me, gonna be a real nice time, Come On, what do you say?
Rose (Sung):
If I go, well you know mom would be here on her own. She would die,
I could lie, I couldn't lie to my, if I go she would know.
Look I'm not ready, we're closing and Eddie I still gotta work.
Come on don't be a jerk. Give it back Eddie stop, look I still gotta mop,
Plus I don't really drink. See I really don't think I can come.
I can't just get up and go. Mama needs me around.
I'd like to but I... Eddie come on, I've got work to do, please.
Eddie (Sung Overlapping Rose):
Come to this party with me, look you can't miss this party.
You'll meet my friends and when it ends Rose I'll race you right home.
Oh why cap the knife, we'll grab a bite, table for two, just me and you,
candles and wine and intertwine.
Rose's Mother (Spoken):
Rose! Closin' time now. Better run along.
Eddie (Sung):
You'll miss out on one hell of a time. Should be one rousin party.
Well...I'm glad we met, I've gotta get, Rose, gosh you seem swell.
Still it's a shame, I thought if you came, who knows. Maybe we coulda...
Eddie (Spoken):
Have a good night now.
Rose (Spoken):
Eddie wait! I'm goin with you okay! Just let me run upstairs and change.
Eddie (Spoken):
Okay.
Rose (Spoken):
Okay!
Eddie (Sung):
What a gem! What a pick in a pinch! What a girl for this party.
You'll waltz her in, you're set to win once you twirl her around.
She'll be a smash, score you some cash. (Laughs)
Off to a party with you.
