[CLEO, spoken]
Doc! Doc, she almost fainted.

Better come with me, young lady, and let's have a look at you. 
[TONY, spoken]
Hey! What's-a matter here. That's too much roughhouse! You hurt my Rosabella! You make my Rosabella sick! Se sei un stupido cavallone non tentare di fare troppo il furbone. That's-a mean—you big clumsy farm horse—nunja try jump around like a li'l circus pony!
[FIRST WORKER, spoken]
We're sorry, Tony. 
[SECOND WORKER, spoken]
Yeah, we were only playing, Tony. 
[THIRD WORKER, spoken]
We didn't mean anything, Tony. 
[THIRD WORKER, spoken]
I'm sorry, Tony. 
[TONY, spoken]
Andate a lavarci e ci vediamo stassera a la festa. That's-a mean go tell Joe give you half-day off. Go wash you hands and face and come to the party tonight. 
[WORKERS, spoken]
Thanks. Thanks a lot, Tony. Thanks, Tony.

Hey Doc! Oh, Doc! My Rosabella, is she get hurt? Huh?

Uh, just a, just a little dizzy from all the excitement.

Oh, oh, just dizzy, huh? She all right though, huh?
[DOC, spoken]
Just dizzy, that's all. 
[TONY, spoken]
She no gotta have medicine? I tell my Rosabella take it easy. 
[DOC, spoken]
Sure. You'd better sit down. 
[TONY, spoken]
Oh, me? I'm-a no gonna sit down no more, Doc. Look-a me. Tonight I'm-a gonna dance. 
(sung)
Tam pa, ta tam, pa pum, ta tum
[ROSABELLA, spoken]
What am I going to do, Cleo? What am I going to do?
[CLEO, spoken]
I don't know how it is. Don't as me. 
[ROSABELLA, spoken]
A baby!
[CLEO, spoken]
I don't know how it is. I just don't know.

Tum, ta tum, ta ta, ta—

Oh, Rosabella, you feel better now, huh? Listen, da Doc says you take it easy, so you go in the house and rest so you feel good for the party tonight.
