Nick asks flo to invest in a casino nick has decided to launch, but flo's money
Is tied up in his new show, so fanny becomes nick's partner. fanny is featured
In the new 1920 ziegfeld follies world war i tribute number:

Eddie:
Our boys went rat-tat-tat-tat,
Rat-tat-tat-tat,
And shot the kaiser where he sat-tat-tat-at.
With every poppity-pop,
Some kraut took a drop.
American boys are all such straight shooters--
We'll take care of him, mother,
When he comes home from the war.
We'll take care of him, mother,
We'll do everything that you would do--yeah--and more.
Rat-tat-tat-tat,
We'll give their backs a big pat.
They deserve a future full of joys
'cause they're our yankee doodle,
Yankee doodle,
Yankee doodle,
Doughboys.
Company--order--arms--roll call--
Company:
I'm private jones from arkansas,
I'm private smith from kansas,
I'm private ryan from maine,
I'm private burke from wisconsin,
I'm private o'brien from texas,
I'm private muntz from michigan,
Fanny:
.i'm private schvartz from rock-a-way,
And i guess you heard reports
That the kaiser runs a block away
When they tell him, here comes schvartz,
'cause ven i get mad, believe it, jack,
Out from nowhere comes a maniac,
A kick in the foot,
A shot in the pants--
I wouldn't give a second chance.
Schvartz from rock-a-way.
Chorus:
Private schwartz
Private schwartz
Private schwartz from rock-a-way.
Fanny:
I met mademoiselle from armentieres
And my bagels gave a spin (oy, yoy),
She said, private schvartz,
Come closer, dear!
What a tzimmis i got in!
Ven you're fighting for democracy,
Call on irving schvartz and company,
I'm through and through
Red, white and bluish,
I talk this way
Because i'm british.
Tell far rock-a-way, don't pull the dock away,
'cause sailing home is general schvartz.
All:
Rat-ta ta ta ta tat,
We'll give their backs a big pat.
They deserve a great big medal
And a loud huzzah,
Over here and over there
You'll hear
Rat-tat a tat tat,
Rat-tat a tat tat,
Rat tat a tat tat tat,
That's our yankee doodle,
Yankee doodle
Rat tat a tat tat tat
Hurrah.

Other Barbra Streisand song Lyrics
Any Place I Hang My Hat Is Home "Free and easy That's my style Howdy-do me? Watch me smile..."	Keepin Out of Mischief Now "Keepin' out of mischief now I really am in love and how I'm through playin' with fire It's you whom i desire..."
Lover, Come Back to Me "Sky was blue and high above The moon was new, so was love This eager heart of mine was singing Lover, where can you be..."	I Stayed Too Long At The Fair "I wanted the music to play on forever Have i stayed too long at the fair? I wanted the clown to be constantly clever Have i stayed too long at the fair?..."
My Honeys Loving Arms "I love your loving arms They hold a world of charms A place to nestle When i am lonely..."	Soon Its Gonna Rain "Hear how the wind begins to whisper See how the leaves go streaming by Smell how the velvet rain is falling Out where the fields are warm and dry..."
When The Sun Comes Out "When the sun comes out And the rain stops beating on my window pane When the sun comes out There'll be blue birds 'round my door..."	Much More "much more I'd like to swim In a clear blue stream Where the water is icy cold..."
