Look At Me Now
KATE
Prohibition!
They can shove it
Revolution!
Rise above it
My solution:
Time to covet
Love it before it's too late
MAX
Who's that?
ENSEMBLE
That's Kate!
KATE
I was born in a ditch in West Virginia
Ran away from home at ten
Crawled right out of that ditch
And holy cow
Just take a look at me now
I've been learning a trade
I've slung the hash
For more than just a couple men
I've been pillowed and paid
For "Wah-Wah-Wow"
But won't you look at me now!
Look at me now
Taking a bow
I've been to Hell and back
Look at me now
Happy and how
I met a swell named Mr. Black
BLACK
Sorry, Kate, I had to pay for the hack
KATE
Welcome back
BLACK
Are you all right?
KATE
Me? Give me a bottle of bourbon and half a chicken
And I'll conquer the world!
I got life in me yet
So let me tell you
The south is gonna rise again
When you start in a ditch
You quickly learn to plow
So, darling, darling, darlings
Take a damn good look -
Look at me now!
