_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ Hey, delightful to have you as a [Bb] guest on our show, Patty.
Thank you, Terry.
I don't get to see you too often in person, but [N] I certainly watch you every Monday on
your own television show.
Thank you.
Would you mind mentioning the network?
_ _ _ Well, we're not supposed to do that, but of course, you know, I know your network as well
as I know my ABC. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Sneaking in, you know, [G]
like we sneak our products in once [D] in a while.
But it reminds me, I know you're in your dressing room, did you have a little surprise waiting for you?
You mean? _
_ Yeah, the big Zara [Gm] Kleenex and [Bb] _ Noxzema.
[Ab] Terry, you shouldn't have.
Oh, that's all right.
It's my favorite product.
I don't mind giving it to one of my favorite people.
How about your sponsors?
Do they give away any samples, [A] anything? _
_ _ Well, they don't [D] usually do that, Terry, but I told them I was going to be on the show
tonight and the vice president of the company asked me to give you the keys to a new Rosenberg.
_ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ And [B] just for a few thousand dollars more, you [N] could get a car. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ Heading for a [D] ride by an Oklahoma cowgirl.
You don't happen to be Kitty, do you?
Miss Kitty?
No, but I wouldn't mind being Miss Kitty if you'd be Marshall Diller and we could get
together on a song.
_ _ Well.
_ _ _ _ [N] Well. _ _
_ _ _ You can't go Mitch [C] Ayers and the posse now. _ _ _ _ _ _ _

I don't suppose I mention this, I never do too often, but that dress is beautiful.
Thank you, sir.
Do you have another one like that and put it on?
