"Which seemed to softly say"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Come along with me"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Come along with me away"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"May I have your autograph, Mr. Cohan?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"To what do you attribute your continued success, Mr. Cohan?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Oh, I'm an ordinary guy who knows what ordinary guys like to see."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Front row center, the greatest show on earth, the people."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"To the people. God bless them."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Here, chick, chick, chick."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- Here, chick, chick, chick. - Heh."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Oh, it's such fun, Mother, having cows and chickens."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"And everything's running so smoothly."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Well, it's always been a dream of ours, Mary."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"We kept hoping for 20 years that it might come true someday."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Imagine knowing how to feed chickens or how much to feed them."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"And you're a farmer only three weeks."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Jerry and I have seen a lot of chickens in train windows..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...and we always wanted to raise some of our own."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"You know, watch them hatch and feed them and eat them."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"If we only could. They're so pretty."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- Georgie? - Yeah?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- What'd you get Dad for his birthday? - Oh, nothing much. Just a smoking jacket."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Is it bright? Lots of color? I mean, will he like it?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Well, it's silk and very red and very yellow."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"That'll do it. Look what I got him, Georgie."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Well, now, there's a present. That must have set you back a few."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Dad needed a new watch."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"His old one's so loud, you can hear it right through his coat."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"My future husband helped me pick it out."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Your future what?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Husband. We're getting married as soon as Fred's road tour is over."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Well..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Hm."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Hm."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Little Josie's gonna get married, huh?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Oh, it doesn't seem that long ago..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Hmm."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"What happens to The Four Cohans?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Oh, just a simple case of subtraction."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"You know, one from four leaves three."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- Three Cohans. - Mm-mm."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"That's only arithmetic."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"One Cohan from four Cohans leaves nothing."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Mom and Pop know?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Mm-hm."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Mom's been working on the wedding dress for weeks."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"What are you thinking about, Georgie?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"I'm gonna write you the most terrific wedding march ever put on paper."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"It'll pack the pews."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Say, Dad, will you tell Josie that there's no reason to break up the act?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"The Four Cohans are as much an institution as marriage is."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Oh, Georgie, no one knows that any better than I do..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...but we want to settle down and raise a family."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"What's the matter? Can't he raise a family and be a stage manager too?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- Hmm? - George."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"George, I'm afraid your mother and I are breaking up the act before Josie is."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"You hear that, Sam? All three of them walking out on me."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"There's been a 40-year run, remember?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"We're giving you our two weeks' notice, George. Heh."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"All we'd like to do now is spend the rest of our days here on this farm."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"But you can't do that. You can't put an actor out to grass. Fresh air kills him."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"We've gained nearly 10 pounds apiece."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"You can work it off. The show is ready to go into rehearsal."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"There are grand parts in it for both of you."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"No, George, I..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"We've had good times together."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"And, well, new shows need new faces and new feet to go with you."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"From now on, it's just you alone, son."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Well, what's this?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- A surprise, Dad. - Happy birthday!"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- For me? Heh. - You get your own birthday."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- Look at the size of that one. - Make a wish."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- Make your wish. - I have."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"A good one, Dad."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Which one do you want to open first?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"How about opening this one? Let me help you."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- This one will match your suit, Dad. - Somebody gave me that last year."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Well, it looks fine."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Had it made up on that old backdrop you like so well, fireproofed and everything."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Oh, darling, that's a lovely watch. Heh."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"I'm so glad you like it, Dad."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"This is better than being on next to closing."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"The only trouble is it's three minutes fast."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Heh-heh. Dad, press the little button on the side and see what happens."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"It plays one on one and segues into "Dixie.""
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Here's some more ties that you won't like, Jerry."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"I'll have to open up a store, huh? Heh-heh."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- Oh, uh... - Here's a letter from George."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"- Don't open that now... - You haven't written me a letter in 20 years."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"I'm gonna open it now, and I'm gonna read it."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"George, this isn't your party. Sit down and let him read his letter."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
""Dear Dad, this is your 62nd birthday, and God bless you."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Maybe I've never told you before, but no son ever had a better dad..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...or one to be prouder of."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"You and mother have always given me more love and understanding..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...than I ever deserved."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"And all the luck I've had is due to the things you two have taught me."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Nothing I can do could ever repay the debt."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"But here's a little present for you and mother."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"From this day on, you and I are partners..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...in every theater and theatrical property I possess..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...half and equal."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"The Cohan Theater, the Astor, the Gaiety..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...and the Grand Opera House in Chicago..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...and all my plays and songs as long as they..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...or you and I, live.""
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"These are not my reading glasses."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Why didn't somebody give me some reading glasses for my birthday?"
Yankee Doodle Dandy
""Wish you all my love..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...your son and partner, George.""
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Well, George, on behalf of your mother and myself, I..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"There she goes stealing the scene again."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"One success followed another..."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"...but there was one challenge I hadn't met."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"Critics kept saying that musicals and cheap comedies were all I could write."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"I could wave a flag, they said. Nothing else."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"So I wrote a legitimate drama, very deep and very significant."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"No music, no gags, no flag-waving."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"I called it Popularity."
Yankee Doodle Dandy
"The title showed how hard I was hoping."
