George Gershwin
I’m About to Be a Mother
(Spoken intro)
[MARY]
Before you go any further, with your permission, I must tell of my husband's delicate condition

[SENATORS]
Delicate condition? What do you mean?

(Song)
[MARY]
I'm about to be a mother
He's about to be a father
We're about to have a baby
I must tell it
These doings compel it
Oh, I'm about to be a mother
You're about to be a father
We're about to have a baby

[SENATORS]
A baby?

[MARY]
A baby to love and adore
Who could ask for anything more?

[SENATORS]
She's about to be a mother
He's about to be a father
They're about to have a baby
We can't bother
A budding young father
(Spoken outro)
[JOHN]
Mary, is it true? Am I going to be a father?

[MARY]
It's true, John

[JOHN]
Water!
