[ROSE, spoken]
"I thought you did it for me, Momma"
"I thought you did it for me, Momma"
"I thought you made a no-talent ox into a star
Because you like doin' things the hard way, Momma"
What I got in me
What I been holdin' down inside of me
Oh, if I ever let it out there wouldn't be signs big enough
There wouldn't be lights bright enough
Here she is, boys
Here she is, world
Here's Rose

[ROSE]
Curtain up
Light the lights

[ROSE, spoken]
Play it, boys

[ROSE]
You either got it
Or you ain't
And, boys, I got it
You like it?
[ORCHESTRA, spoken]
Yeah

[ROSE]
Ha-ha, well, I got it

Some people got it and make it pay
Some pеople can't even givе it away
This people's got it
And this people's spreadin' it around
You either have it
Or you've had it

[ROSE, spoken]
Hello, everybody, my name's Rose
What's yours?
How do you like them egg rolls, Mr. Goldstone?

[ROSE]
Hold your hats and hallelujah
Momma's gonna show it to ya

[ROSE, spoken]
Ready or not, here comes Momma

[ROSE]
Momma's talkin' loud
Momma's doin' fine
Momma's gettin' hot
Momma's goin' stong
Momma's movin' on
Momma's all alone
Momma doesn't care
Momma's lettin' loose
Momma's got the stuff
Momma's got—
Momma's—
Momma's—
Momma's got the stuff
Momma's gotta move
Momma's gotta go—
Momma—
Momma's gotta let go
Why did I do it?
What did it get me?
Scrapbooks full of me in the background
Give 'em love and what does it get you?
What does it get you?
One quick look as each of them leaves you
All your life and what does it get you?
Thanks a lot, and out with the garbage
They take bows and you're battin' zero

I had a dream—
I dreamed it for you, June
It wasn't for me, Herbie
And if it wasn't for me
Then where would you be
Miss Gypsy Rose Lee?

Well, someone tell me, when is it my turn?
Don't I get a dream for myself?
Starting now, it's gonna be my turn
Gangway world, get off of my runway
Starting now, I bat a thousand
This time boys, I'm takin' the bows and

Everything's coming up Rose
Everything's coming up roses
Everything's coming up roses
This time for me
For me
For me
For me
For me
For me
For me
