Much More Reprise by Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt Lyrics

[LUISA]
(Sings as Light comes up on her.)
I’d like to swim in a clear blue stream
Where the water is icy cold
Then go to town in a golden gown
And have my fortune told

[EL GALLO]
(Sings as Light comes up on him.)
Just once
Just once
Just once before you’re old…

[LUISA]
It’s my bandit!

[EL GALLO]
Your bandit, yes

[LUISA]
What are you doing up in that tree?
[EL GALLO]
Growing ripe

[LUISA]
Don’t grow too ripe or you’ll fall

[EL GALLO]
Very wise

[LUISA]
What do you see from up there?

[EL GALLO]
Everything

[LUISA]
Really?

[EL GALLO]
Nearly

[LUISA]
Do you see Matt?

[EL GALLO]
Do you care?
[LUISA]
No. I just wondered
Can I climb up there beside you?

[EL GALLO]
You can if you can

[LUISA]
(Climbs up beside him. The stagе is dark now, and only the “tree” is lit.)
There!
