Barbra Streisand

(Horace:)
Hello, Dolly!
Well, hello, Dolly!
It's so nice to have you here
Where you belong
I never knew Dolly
Without you, Dolly
Life was awfully flat
And more than that
Was awfully wrong
(Dolly:)
Here's my hat, Horace!
I'm staying where I'm at, Horace!
Dolly will never go away...

(Horace:)
Wonderful woman!

(Both:)
Again. .

(Townspeople:)
Put on you Sunday clothes
When you feel dawn and out
Strut down the street and have your picture took
Dressed like a dream your spirits seem to turn about
That Sunday shine is a certain sign
That you feel as fine as you look!

Take the someone whose arms you're in
Hold onto her tight and spin
And one two three, one two three, one two three
Look!

(Cornelius:)
I held her
For an instant
But my arms felt sure and strong

(All:)
It only takes a moment
To be loved a whole life long...

(Men:)
Yes, it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
Oh yes, It takes a woman
A fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things
In life!

(All:)
Well, well, hello, Dolly!
Well, hello, Dolly!
It' so nice to have you back
Where you belong
You're looking swell, Dolly!
We can tell, Dolly!
You're still glowin'
You're still crowin'
You're still goin' strong
You'll see the crowd swayin'
For the band's playin'
One of your old favorite songs
From way back when

Dolly
Wow, wow, wow, fellas
Look at the old girl now, fellas!

(Chorus:)
Dolly, you'll never go away
Dolly, you'll never go away
Dolly, you'll never go away
Again!

Barbra Streisand is an Oscar-winning, Tony-winning, Emmy-winning, Golden Globe-winning Broadway legend, film star, movie director and one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time - a staggering amount of accomplishments for someone whose mother insisted she not to go into show business.

By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.

Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
