It�s Christmas day of the year 1910 and a very special one for a young couple because it�s their first one together. Jim Dear hands his wife, Darling, a gift box tied with a big ribbon. | |
Jim | It�s for you Darling, Merry Christmas. |
Darling | Oh, Jim dear! It�s the one I was admiring, isn�t it? Trimmed with ribbons |
Jim | Well, it has a ribbon the box is opened and appears a puppy |
Darling | Oh how sweet! |
Jim | You like her darling? |
Darling | Oh I love her! What a perfect beautiful little lady. |
The night has come and Lady must go to bed� but she doesn�t like her �bed� | |
Jim | Come on, Lady. Over here. That�s a girl. There now. A nice little bed for you. |
Darling | But Jim, dear, are you sure she will be warm enough? |
Jim | Why of course not? She�ll be snug as a bug in a - ah ah. Almost forgot something. There. Goodnight Lady. to Darling Now, now. Don�t worry darling. She�ll go right to sleep. But Lady follows them No, no Lady. There is where you belong. Right here. Jim puts her in the basket again, but she follows them yipping |
Darling | Ah, look she�s lonesome. Don�t you thing, maybe, just for a night? |
Jim | Now darling, if we are going to show her who�s master we must be firm from the very beginning. he puts Lady in the basket once more but now, to be sure she�s not going to follow them again, he puts a chair in front of the door, so, in this way Lady must be stay in her place. She whimpers loud Lady, stop that now. Stop it whimpering resumes. Howling Lady quiet now. Do ya hear me? Back to bed. Quick now. Not one more sound. |
It�s two o�clock in the morning and Lady is scraping, trying to escape. She goes upstairs and find her new bedroom. She whimpers there. | |
Darling | Jim dear |
Jim | groans Lady whimpers and howls again |
Darling | Aw Jim. |
Jim | Hmm? What? What? Oh! yawning Oh, all right. But remember, just for tonight. he puts Lady on the bed |
Time pass and we see Lady sleeping in the same place of the bed� but she�s a puppy no more. Cock crowing. Lady opens her eyes. It�s a new day. She says good morning to her masters. They must be awaken | |
Jim | yawning All right Lady. All right. I�m up. I�m up Lady. Oh no! |
Darling | What�s wrong Jim? What is it? |
Jim | Can�t you explain to Lady about Sundays? |
Meanwhile, Lady goes downstairs to do her daily homework. She sees a rat near the house and goes after her, but then, she hears the bicycle ring belling and must catch the paper. It�s breakfast time. We see Jim trying to read the paper with an enormous hole in the middle. | |
Jim | Have you notice Darling, since we�ve had Lady we see less and less of those disturbing headlines? |
Darling | Yes. I don�t know how we ever got along without her. |
Jim | She must be about six months old. We�d better be getting her a licence. |
Scene changes. Darling is opening a box for Lady. There�s her licence inside. | |
Darling | Hope it fits. My, but it does look nice. So grown up. Won�t Jock and Trusty be surprised? |
Another dog is in scene. It�s Jock, a Scottish neighbour friend of Lady. He�s hiding a bone in his secret place. | |
Jock | Four steps ahead then turn to the left And right to the place I marked it With the bonny, bonny bone That I�ll bury for me own In my bonny, bonny bank In the backyard Ah that�s a great sight |
Lady | She goes around proudly to show her new collar and licence to her two close friends, Jock and Trusty Jock!. Oh Jock. Hello Jock. |
Jock | he is sitting over his treasure trying to hide it Oh, oh it�s you lassie |
Lady | Notice anything different? |
Jock | Uh, you�ve had a bath? |
Lady | No, not that. |
Jock | You�ve had your nails clipped? |
Lady | Uh, uh. Guess again. |
Jock | Well, I-I wouldn�t be a knowin� then. Why lassie a bonny new collar. |
Lady | Do ya like it? |
Jock | Aye. It must be very expensive. Have you shown it to Trusty? |
Lady | No. |
Jock | We�d best go at once. You know how sensitive he is �aboot� these things. |
Trusty�s house. He is snoring and whimpering in dreams. | |
Lady | He�s dreaming. |
Jock | Aye, dreaming of those bonny bygone days when he and his grandfather were trackin� criminals through the swamps. |
Lady | They were? |
Jock | that was before � |
Lady | interrupting Before what? |
Jock | �Tis time you knew the truth lassie. It shouldn�t happened to a dog but, well, Trusty lost his sense of smell |
Lady | No! |
Jock | Aye! But we must never let on that we know lassie. It would break his poor heart |
Trusty | He is sniffing in dreams and looking for a �criminal� -in fact, a little striped caterpillar-, and wakes up when he tops with his friends Uh, which way did he go? Which way did he go? |
Jock | Go? |
Trusty | Yeah, big fella. About six foot two. No, uh, three. Wore a stripe suit. No collar. the caterpillar is proud with the description Why, Miss Lady! You have a collar. |
Lady | Mm-hmm. And a licence. |
Trusty | My, my, how time does fly! |
Jock | Aye, it seems only yesterday she was cuttin� her teeth on Jim Dear slippers, and now there she is a full grown lady |
Trusty | Wearing the greatest honour man can bestow. |
Jock | The badge of faith and respectability. |
Trusty | That�s right Miss Lady. As my grandpappy Old Reliable used to say� Don�t recollect if I�ve ever mentioned Old Reliable before. |
Jock | Aye, ya have, lady |
Trusty | Oh yeah. |
Lady | It�s Jim Dear. Please, excuse me. Lady spots that Jim Dear in on his way home; she runs, as is her habit, to race with him back to the front door |
Jim | Hello there Lady. Come on. Beat you home. Oh you win again. Steady now. Steady. He looks her licence Well, what have we here? Oh, big girl now, huh? opening the door All right. Oh, ladies first. |
Scene changes and we see Jim, Darling and Lady in front of the fire place. | |
Jim | You know, Darling, with Lady here I�d say life is quite complete. |
Darling | Yes dear, I don�t imagine anything could ever take her place in our hearts. |
In an old railway station we discover a dog, sleeping until the train�s whistle makes him to open his eyes. It�s our friend Tramp. | |
Tramp | Ah, what a day! Well, now to dig up some breakfast. He walks trough his neighbourhood and finally stops in front of a pets animal shop�s window. Oh. Humm. Cute little rascals. Coochie, coochie, coochie coo Chuckles Now that breakfast. Let�s see. Bernie�s? Hmm? No. Francois? No, no nope. Too much starch. Ah Tony�s. That�s it. Haven�t been there in a week We hear a man singing in Italian |
Tony | And the call it bella notte� Tramp scratches in the door. Well buongiorno, Butch. You want your breakfast, eh? Okay. The boss, he save a some a nice a bones for you. Breakfast a coming up from a left-field. Ha-ha, good catch! |
Our friend is taking his breakfast when he hears a wagon stops so close. It�s the dog pound wagon. | |
Dog Catcher | Whoa, boy, whoa He puts and advertisement in the wall which reads as follows: Warning. Notice hereby given that any unlicensed dog will be immediately impounded. By order of City Council |
Tramp | Hey. Psst. Psst. |
Bull | Ha, ha, ha Blimey. Look, Peg. It�s the Tramp. |
Tramp | Shh. |
Peg | Hiya, handsome. Come to join the party? |
Tramp | All right, all right. No time for wisecracks. I�ve got to get ya out. I�m telling ya the pressure�s really hot. Signs all over the town. |
Peg | Gee, thanks. |
Bull | You�re a bit of all right, chum. |
Tramp | Okay, okay. Get going. |
Dog Catcher | Hey, what�s going on over there! |
Tramp | Scream! And be careful! He�s hidden under the wagon and when the man appears he bits his leg |
Dog Catcher | What you mangy mutt. Hey, let go! Let go of me! Tramp runs away in the opposite direction and distracts the man |
Tramp | Well, snob hill, ha. He is in Lady�s neighbourhood Hi gals to the pigeons How�s pickings? Pretty slim, eh? Yeah. I�ll bet they�ve got a lid on every trash can. Uh-oh. And a fence around every tree. I wonder what the leash and collar set does for excitement. |
At Lady�s home. Jock and Trusty go to visit her. | |
Jock | Lassie! Lassie! |
Trusty | Oh Miss Lady, Ma�am! Miss Lady. |
Jock enters in the yard looking for her and finds Lady looking unhappy. | |
Jock | A good mornin� Lassie! �Tis a bony, braw bright day, uh, today. |
Trusty | Why, Miss Lady, is something wrong? |
Jock | Aye, tell us Lassie. If somebody�s been mistreatin� ya� |
Lady | Oh no Jock. It�s something I�ve done, I guess. |
Trusty | You? |
Lady | It must be. Jim Dear and Darling are acting so� Darling is humming |
Trusty | Jim Dear and Darling? |
Jock | Hush man! they go after the greenhouse Now, Lassie, get on with the details. |
Lady | Well I first noticed it the other day when Jim Dear came home. |
We see the scene as Lady is relating it: She was looking through the window and when she saw Jim Dear went to him, but that day Jim Dear didn�t interest in playing with her as he used to. | |
Jim | Down, Lady. Down. Darling, Darling? Are you all right? |
Darling | Of course I am, why shouldn�t I be? |
Jim | I just can�t help worrying. After all, in your condition, alone here all day walking that dog. |
We come back to the present. Her friends are surprised. | |
Jock | �That dog� |
Trusty | That dog. |
Lady | He�s never called me that before. |
Jock | Well now Lassie, I wouldn�t worry my wee head aboot that. Remember. They�re only humans after all. |
Trusty | That�s right Miss Lady. As my grandpappy, Old Reliable, used to say. Don�t recollect if I�ve ever mentioned Old Reliable before. |
Jock | Aye, ya have laddie. Frequently. |
Trusty | oh, yeah. |
Lady | But now Darling is� Well, we�ve always enjoined pour afternoon romp together. But yesterday� |
Lady�s relating the episode. She wants to walk as always with Darling, but that day she�s so busy doing something Lady doesn�t understand. And she�s always humming. | |
Darling | No Lady. No walk today. Then Lady takes his ball to play with her No Lady. Not now. A wool ball fells down and Lady tries to play with it, but Darling �s angry Lady. Drop that Lady. Drop it, I say! she hits lightly Lady |
We come back to the present, and Lady is explaining her feelings. | |
Lady | It didn�t hurt really. But Darling has never struck me before. |
Jock and Trusty look each other and smile. They know what�s happening. | |
Jock | Now lassie. Do no take it too seriously. After all, at a time like this� |
Trusty | Why, yes, you see, Miss Lady. There comes a time in the life of all humans when, uh.. Well as they put it, uh, the birds and the bees. Or, well, uh, the stork you know? Uh, no? Well, uh� |
Jock | What he�s tryin� to say lassie is Darling is expecting a wee �bairn�. |
Lady | �Bairn�? |
Trusty | He means a baby, Miss Lady |
Lady | Oh! What�s a baby? Tramp has just arrived to hear the question |
Jock | Well, they. They resemble humans. |
Trusty | But I�d say a mite smaller. |
Jock | Aye, and they walk on all fours. |
Trusty | And if I remember correctly they �beller� a lot. |
Jock | Aye and they are very expensive. You�ll not be permitted to play with it. |
Trusty | But they�re mighty sweet. |
Jock | And very, very soft. |
And that moment the mongrel Tramp arrives. He is much more cynical about babies that Jock and Trusty. | |
Tramp | Yes a cute little bundle chuckles of trouble. Yes they scratch, pinch, pull ears. Ah but shucks any dog can take that. It�s what they do to your happy home. Move it over, will ya friend? Home wreckers! That�s what they are! |
Jock | Look here laddie. Who are you to barge in? |
Tramp | The voice of experience, buster. Just wait till Junior gets here. You get the urge for a nice comfortable scratch and� falsetto �put that dog out. He�ll get fleas all over the baby�. You start barking at some strange mutt barking. Falsetto �Stop that racket, you�ll wake the baby� And then they hit you in the room and board department. Remember those nice juicy cuts of beef? Forget �em. Leftover baby food. And that nice warm bed by the fire? A leaky doghouse. |
Lady | Oh dear. |
Jock | do not listen lassie. No human is that cruel! |
Trusty | Of course not Miss Lady. Why, everybody knows a dog�s best friend is his human. |
Tramp | laughing Oh come now fellas. You haven�t fallen for that old line now, have ya? |
Jock | Awe, and we�ve no need for mongrels and their radical ideas. Off with ya now! Off with ya! |
Tramp | Okay Sandy. |
Jock | The name�s Jock. |
Tramp | Okay Jock. |
Jock | heather Lad o�Glencairn to you |
Tramp | Okay, okay, okay. But remember this Pigeon, a human heart has only so much room for love and affection. When a baby moves in, the dog moves out. |
Lady is astonished and worried. | |
Jim | Aha! Now Let�s see. That�ll be about� oh well he marks all the month In the baby�s room Jim Dear is pounding Darling. There isn�t any way we can tell for sure what�s is going to be, is there? Lady thinks about Tramp�s warning a lot during the next months |
Darling | I�m afraid not. Nobody ever knows for certain she�s writing a list of different names All we can do is� hope. |
Time pass. In a freeze January night, Jim Dear has to go out� | |
Jim | Darling? Are you sure you want watermelon? |
Darling | Mm-hmm. And some chop suey too. |
Jim | Chop suey! Oh! All right Darling! |
February. A party� The house is full of people chattering and laughing. | |
Women | That�s the cutest little thing I ever saw. And that bonet! Isn�t it just adorable? Don�t you just love showers? Darling, I�ve never seen you look more beautiful. Isn�t she absolutely radiant? Radiant! Why, that�s just I told Bill yesterday!. �Bill -I said- Darling looks radiant, positively radiant�. Why, in all my days -I said- I�ve never seen anyone as radiant as Darling. |
Lady abandons the room and goes where men are. But the situation is similar. | |
Men | Jim, you look terrible! Absolutely horrible! I never saw ya look worse. Cheer up, Jim. Old Doc Jones has never lost a father yet! |
April. A raining night� | |
Jim | At the phone Yes Aunt Sarah, it�s a boy! U-Uh a boy! What�s that? Eyes? Oh, what colour are they? Well, oh gosh! I-I forget to look! he forgets the phone and runs A boy! It�s a boy! It�s a� Doctor! Doctor it�s a boy! |
Doctor | Yes, yes, I know. |
Jim | Aha, a boy! Oh boy, oh boy. It�s a boy. It�s a boy! |
Aunt Sarah | at the phone Hello, hello Jim? Are you there Jim? Central, central, we�ve been cut off. Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? A Bright new day. A baby�s crying. |
Lady's voice | What is a baby? I just can't understand it must be something wonderful it must be something grand 'cause everybody's smiling in a kind and wistful way and they haven't even noticed that I'm around today What is a baby, anyway? Oh, what is a baby? I must find out today what makes Jim Dear and Darling act this way. |
She enters in the baby�s room, so quietly� Darling has in her arms the baby and is singing a lullaby. | |
Darling | La, la lu La, la lu oh, my little star sweeper I'll sweep the stardust for you La, la lu La, la lu little soft fluffy sleeper here comes a pink cloud for you La, la lu La, la lu Little wandering angel fold up your wings, close your eyes La, la lu La, la lu And may love be your keeper La, la lu La, la lu La, la lu There now, little star sweeper, dream on |
Lady wants to see the baby, but she doesn�t want to disturb, but Jim and Darling helps her. Now Lady is happy again. We see her wagging her tail joyfully. | |
Jim | Well that should do it. We got enough here to take us halfway to China. Darling, Darling? We haven�t much time. |
Darling | Jim, I just can�t leave him. He�s still so small and helpless |
Jim | He�ll be all right. Now come on. If he wakes up, we�ll never get away. |
Darling | But Jim I feel so guilty deserting him like this. |
Jim | Nonsense. Hey, what�s the matter with Lady? Lady is angry with them |
Darling | She thinks we�re running out on him. |
Jim | Awe don�t worry my old girl. We�ll be back in a few days. |
Darling | Aunt Sarah will be here. Lady smiles. She understands they are not leaving alone their baby |
Jim | With you here to help her. Door�s bell There�s the old girl now. Coming Aunt Sarah! Coming! |
Aunt Sarah | Sorry I�m late dears. Hope I haven�t kept you waiting. |
Jim | Here, let me take your things. |
Aunt Sarah | No, no, No fussing. I know my way around. On your way now. Mustn�t miss your train. Have a good time and don�t worry about a thing. Goodbye dear. Goodbye, goodbye. |
Darling | Goodbye! |
Jim | Goodbye! |
Aunt Sarah | She closes the door leaving Lady outside, but she enters by her own door, and goes upstairs to the baby�s room And now to see that big nephew of mine. Coochie, coochie, coochie, coochie. Oh you adorable little� gasps God gracious! What are you doing here? Go on now. Shoo, shoo. Scat. Get out of here! Lady has to go out and the baby starts to cry There, there. Aunt Sarah won�t let that dog frighten you anymore. No, no, no, no, dear. |
Out of the key Rock a bye a baby on the treetop When the wind blows | |
Lady goes downstairs so sad. She was not going to do any harm the baby. She pass in front of a basket which opens a little to show two pair of eyes� | |
Si and Am | We are Siamese if you please we are Siamese if you don't please now we lookin' over our new domicile if we like we stay for maybe quite a while Do you seeing that thing swimming round and round? Yes Maybe we could reaching in and make it drown if we sneaking up upon it carefully there will be a head for you, a tail for me Do you hear what I hear? A baby cry where we finding baby, there are milk nearby if we look in baby buggy, there could be plenty milk for you and also some for me |
They have been trying to eat the bird and the fish but Lady stops them. The fight and break a lot of things making too much noise. When Aunt Sarah appears the cats simulate they have been hurt by Lady. | |
Aunt Sarah | What�s going on down there? Merciful heavens! My darlings! My precious pets!. Oh, oh, that wicked animal. Attacking my poor, innocent, little angels. Aunt Sarah assumes that Lady has attacker her two cats gratuitously and has Lady muzzled |
Scene changes. We see Aunt Sarah with Lady enter in a pet store. She wants to buy a muzzle. | |
Pet Store Clerk | Good afternoon ma�am. What can I do for you?. |
Aunt Sarah | I want a muzzle. A good, strong muzzle. |
Pet Store Clerk | Yes ma�am. Here�s out latest combination leash and muzzle. We�ll just slip it on like this. And oh, no, no. |
Aunt Sarah | Lady! |
Pet Store Clerk | Nice doggy. No, no. Don�t wiggle. Steady now! Now, now, now. Careful you little� |
Aunt Sarah | Watch out! |
Pet Store Clerk | Doggy, careful doggy |
Aunt Sarah | Come back. Come back here I say! Come back here! |
Lady runs away so frightened. She doesn�t know where she is going to or what she is going to do but she continues running away. Suddenly she�s being chased by some vicious street-dogs. But she�s lucky because our friend Tramp spots her and chases off her pursuers. | |
Tramp | Hey Pige, what are you doing on this side of the tracks? I though you�Wha� Oh you poor kid. Oh, we�ve gotta get this off. I think I know the very place. Tramp reckon that the best way to get rid of the muzzle is to take her to the zoo to find an animal with teeth sharp enough to cope with the task Come on. Taking Lady�s leash in his mouth he led her to the zoo Well , here we are. |
Lady | The zoo? |
Tramp | Sure! No, no, this way. Follow me. |
Lady | Oh! |
Tramp | What�s the matter Pige? |
Lady | We can�t go in? |
Tramp | Why not? |
Lady | Well, the sign says We can read �No dogs allowed� |
Tramp | Yeah, well, well that�s� That�s the angle. |
Lady | Angle? |
Tramp | Look, we�ll just wait for the right� Uh-oh. Here we are now. Just lay low. A typical English man goes out the zoo and Tramp receives him as his master attracting the policeman attention on him |
Policeman | Hey you! |
Professor | Uh, I beg your pardon. Were you addressing me? |
Policeman | What�s the matter? Can�t you read? He shows him the signal |
Professor | Why, yes, several languages. |
Policeman | Oh a wise guy, eh? All right now. What�s this creature doin� here? |
Professor | He�s not my dog! Tramp jumps to his arms |
Policeman | Oh, he�s not eh? |
Professor | Go away. Go on. Why certainly not officer. |
Policeman | Awe, I suppose you�ll be tellin� me next it was the dog that was whistlin�, eh? |
Professor | I-I�m certainly don�t know |
Policeman | Oh I�m a liar now, am I? |
Professor | Well, you listen to me. |
Policeman | Aha! Resistin� an officer of the law. You�re gonna to pay! Tramp bits him Oh! Pull a knife on me, will ya? Tryin� to assassinate me, aren�t ya?. Carryin� a concealed weapon! they continue arguing and Tramp enters in the zoo with Lady |
Tramp | Come on, Pige. The place is ours. We�d better go through this place from A to Z. Apes. No, no, no. No use even asking them. They will not understand. |
Lady | They wouldn�t? |
Tramp | Uh-uh. Too closely related with humans. Uh-oh Alligators! Now, there�s an idea. to the alligator Say Al, do you suppose your could nip this contraption off for us? |
Alligator | Glad to oblige He opens his mouth showing his big teeth |
Tramp | whoa, whoa! Hmmpf. If anybody ever needed a muzzle, it�s him. |
Beaver | Timber! |
Tramp | Hey Pigeon, look out! What harebrained idiot would� Hey, look. A beaver. Here�s the answer to our problem. |
Beaver | Let me see here. Six foot six and seven sixteenth inches. |
Tramp | Pardon me friend. I wonder if you�d do us a little� |
Beaver | Busy, sonny, busy. Can�t stop to gossip now. Gotta slide this sycamore to the� swamp. |
Tramp | This will only take you a second of your time. |
Beaver | Only a second? L-listen, listen sonny. Do you realize every second� 70 centimetres of water is wasted over that spillway? |
Tramp | Yeah, but� |
Beaver | Gotta get this log movin� sonny. Gotta get it movin� That the cuttin� takes the time. It�s the doggone haulin�. |
Tramp | The haulin� Exactly. Now, what you need is� |
Beaver | Better bisect this section here. |
Tramp | What you need is a log puller shouting I said a log puller. |
Beaver | I ain�t �deef� sonny. There�s no need to� Did you say log puller? |
Tramp | And, by a lucky coincidence, you see before you modelled by the lovely little lady, the new improved, patented, handy-dandy, never fail, little giant long puller. The busy beaver�s friend. |
Beaver | You don�t say!. |
Tramp | Guaranteed not to wear, tear, rip or ravel. Turn around sister and show the customer the merchandise. And it cuts logs hauling time 66%. |
Beaver | sixty six per cent, eh? chuckles Think of that! Well, how�s it work? |
Tramp | Why, it�s no work at all. You merely slip this ring over the limb, like this, and haul it off. |
Beaver | Say you mind if I slip it on for size. |
Tramp | Help yourself, friend! |
Beaver | Okay, don�t mind if I do. How do you get the �conserned� thing off, sonny? |
Tramp | Glad you brought that up, friend. To remove it, simply place the strap between your teeth. |
Beaver | Like this? |
Tramp | Correct friend. Now, bite hard! Ya see? |
Lady | It�s off. |
Beaver | Say, that is simple. |
Tramp | Well, friend, we�ll be on our way now, so� |
Beaver | Uh-uh- Not so fast now, sonny. I�ll have to make certain it�s satisfactory before we settle on a price. |
Tramp | Oh no, it�s all yours, friend. You can keep it. |
Beaver | Uh. I can huh? I can? |
Lady | Aha, it�s a free sample |
Beaver | Well, thanks a lot! Thanks ever so� Say! It works swell! |
Scene changes. Lady and the Tramp are walking by the street and she�s telling him about the muzzle. | |
Lady | But when she put me that horrible muzzle on me� |
Tramp | Say no more. I get the hole picture. Aunts, cats, muzzles. Well that�s what comes of tying yourself down to one family. |
Lady | Haven�t you a family? |
Tramp | One for every day of the week. The point is, none of them have me. |
Lady | I�m afraid I don�t understand. |
Tramp | It�s simple. You see sniff Hey! Something tells me it�s supper time. Come on, I�ll show you what I mean. Now take the Schultzes here. Little Fritzie� That�s me Pige� makes this his Monday home. |
Lady | Monday home? |

Afterwards Tramps takes Lady for a romantic stroll in the park. Scene changes. We hear a roster crowing, and our friends, Tramp and Lady, wake up. | |
Lady | Oh! Oh, dear! |
Tramp | Is something wrong Pige? |
Lady | It�s morning. |
Tramp | Yeah. Hmmm. So it is |
Lady | I should have been home hours ago. |
Tramp | Why? Because you still believe in that �ever faithful old dog Trey� routine? Oh, come on, Pige. Open up your eyes. |
Lady | Open my eyes? |
Tramp | To what a dog�s life can really be. Show ya what I mean. Look down there. Tell me what you see. |
Lady | Well I see nice homes with yards and fences� |
Tramp | Exactly. Life on a leash. Look again Pige. Look there�s a great big hunk of world down there with no fence around it where two dogs can find adventure and excitement, and beyond those distant hills who knows what wonderful experiences. And it�s all ours for the taking, Pige. It�s all ours. |
Lady | It sounds wonderful. |
Tramp | But? |
Lady | But who �d watch over the baby? |
Tramp | He agrees reluctantly to escort her You win. Come on. I�ll take ya home. |
In their way we see the City pound wagon again. | |
Tramp | humming It�s a beautiful night And they call it bella� |
Suddenly he sees chickens. It�s fun time Not to change the subject but, ever, chase chickens? | |
Lady | I should say not. |
Tramp | Oh, oh! Then you�ve never lived! |
Lady | But we shouldn�t. |
Tramp | I know. That�s what makes it fun. Aw, come on kid. Start building some memories. |
Lady | But we, we won�t hurt the chickens. |
Tramp | Hurt �em? No! we�ll just stir �em up a bit. Just look those fat, lazy biddies. They should have been up hours ago. He barks and all the chickens and Lady also, run away, horrified Some fun, eh kid? |
Man | Hey, what�s goin� on in there? he fires |
Lady | What�s there? |
Tramp | That�s the signal to get going. Come on! Whee! This is livin� eh kid? |
Lady | Is it? |
Tramp | Come on Pige. Follow me. Lady has been captured and taken to the City pound where she meets some of Tramp�s friends You know, there�s a little bit of bird dog in all of us, eh, Pige? Pige? Pige? Pige? Where are ya, Pige? Pige! Pigeon! Oh Pige! |
Dog pound. We hear a lot of barks and howls. We see a group of assorted dogs humming and howling the song �Home Sweet Home�. The four singers are Toughy, an American mongreal; Boris, a Russian wolfhound; Pedro, a Mexican Chihuahua, and Bull, an English bulldog. Their singing is a sonic camouflage: Dachsie, a dachshound is digging a tunnel under the wall. | |
Toughy | Hey, hey Dachsie, how we comin�? |
Dachsie | One just more chorus and we�re out. |
Toughy | Okay, on a downbeat. One, two� a door creaking: Lady�s coming |
Man | Put her in number four, Bill, while I check her licence number. |
Bill | Okay . All right baby, in here. |
Toughy | Well, well, look youse guys Miss Park Avenue herself. |
Bull | Blimey, a regular bloomin� debutantee. |
Toughy | Yeah and pipe the crown jewel she�s wearin�. |
Bull | Yeah What ya in for sweetheart? Puttin� fleas on the butler laughs |
Peg | All right, all right you guys. Lay off, will ya? |
Toughy | What�s the matter Peg? |
Bull | We was only havin� a bit of sport, we was. |
Peg | Can�t ya see the poor kid�s scared enough already? |
Boris | Pay no attention my little �orchechornya�. |
Peg | That�s right deerie. They don�t mean no real hurt. |
Boris | Is like Gorky says in Lower Dapts: �Miserable beings must find more miserable being�then is happy� |
Peg | Boris is a philosopher. |
Boris | Besides little �bublichki� wearing licence here, that is like waving. You should excuse the expression red flag in front of bull. |
Lady | My licence? But what�s wrong with it? |
Peg | There ain�t nothin� wrong with it, deerie. |
Boris | Confidential. Is not one dog here would not give left hind leg for such a knick-knack. |
Peg | That�s your passport to freedom, honey. Without it� |
Toughy | Hey, hey, youse guys, look. Poor Nutsy is takin� the long walk. |
Lady | Where is he takin� him? |
Toughy | Through the one-way door sister. |
Lady | You.. you mean, he�s� |
Bull | Oh well, a short life and a merry one. |
Toughy | Yeah, that�s what that Tramp always says. |
Lady | The Tramp? |
Bull | There�s a bloke what never gets caught. |
Toughy | He�s given the slip to every dog catcher in this burg. |
Peg | You won�t believe this, dearie, but no matter how tight a jam he�s in the Tramp always finds some way out. |
Lady | I can quite easily believe that. |
Boris | But, remember my friends, even Tramp has his Achilles heel. |
Pedro | Pardon me, amigo, what is this �chilli heel�? |
Boris | Achilles heel, Pedro. This is meaning his, uh, weaknesses. |
Toughy | Oh, oh, the dames yeah! |
Bull | He has an eye for a well-turned paw, he has. Let�s see there�s been Lulu |
Toughy | Yeah, and Trixie. |
Dachsie | Und Fifi. |
Pedro | And my sister Rosita Chiquita Juanita Chihuahua, I think. |
Peg | What a dog! |
Toughy | Yeah, tell us about it, Peg. |
Peg | What a dog! |
Bull | Peg used to be in the Dog and Pony Follies. |
Peg | He's a tramp but they love him breaks a new heart every day He's a tramp they adore him and I only hope he'll stay that way He's a tramp he's a scoundrel he's a rounder he's a cad he's a tramp but I love him yes, even I have got it pretty bad You never can tell when he'll show up he gives you plenty of trouble I guess he's just a no-'count pup but I wish that he were double He's a tramp he's a rover and there's nothing more to say if he's a tramp, he's a good one and I wish that I could travel his way wish that I could travel his way wish that I could travel his way |
Toughy | Yeah, but he never takes �em serious. |
Boris | Ah, but someday he is meeting someone different, some delicate, fragile creature who is giving him a wish to shelter and protect. |
Bull | Like Miss Park Avenue here, eh, matey? |
Boris | Mmmm. Could be. But when he does� |
Peg | Yah, I�m a way ahead of ya. Under the spell of true love� |
Bull | The poor chump grows careless.. |
Boris | The Cossacks are picking him up |
Toughy | and it�s curtains for the Tramp. |
Man | It�s the little cocker, Bill in the number four.. |
Bill | Okay. All right baby. They�ve come to take ya home. You�re too nice a girl to be in this place. |
Lady�s home. She has returned but now she chained in disgrace to an outdoor kennel. | |
Jock | Courage, man, courage!. |
Trusty | But I�ve never even considered matrimony. |
Jock | Nor I, but no matter which of us she accepts, we�ll always be the best of friends. Now remember, not a word �aboot� her unfortunate experience. You don�t want to hurt her feelings. |
Trusty | Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah. |
Jock | Lassie! |
Trusty | Miss Lady, ma�am. |
Lady | Please, I don�t want to see anybody. |
Jock | Now, now lassie. Do not feel that way about it. |
Trusty | Of course not, Miss Lady. Why, some of the finest people I ever tracked down were jailbirds. |
Jock | Quiet! You great loony! Uh, please, lassie, we�ve come with a proposition for helpin� ya. |
Lady | Help me!. What do you mean? |
Jock | Well, now, you see lassie, neither of us is as young as we used to be. |
Trusty | But we�re still in the prime of life. |
Jock | Awe, and we both got very comfortable homes. |
Trusty | That�s right. Where we know you�ll be welcome and appreciated, Miss Lady. |
Jock | So to come directly to the point clears his throat |
Trusty | If you could, uh, find it possible� to uh, to uh |
Lady | You�re both very kind and I do appreciate it, but� |
When Tramp comes to apologize, the three of them refuses to listen to him. | |
Tramp | Oh Pigeon!, Oh Pige! Oh hi boys! Anything new in the kennel club, eh? Little something I picked up for ya Pige. |
Lady | Humph! |
Tramp | Looks like I�m the one that�s in the doghouse. |
Trusty | If this person is annoyin� Miss Lady� |
Jock | We�ll gladly throw the rascal out! |
Lady | That won�t be necessary. Thank you. |
Trusty | Very well, ma�am. |
Jock | You� you mongrel! |
Tramp | Aw, come on, Pige. It wasn�t my fault. |
Lady | Humph! |
Tramp | I though you were right behind me. Honest! When I heard they�d taken you to the pound--- |
Lady | Oh, don�t even mention that horrible place. I was so embarrassed and frightened. |
Tramp | Oh, now, now, now. Who could ever harm a cute little trick like you? |
Lady | Trick? Trick? That reminds me. Who is Trixie? |
Tramp | Trixie? |
Lady | and Lulu? And Fifi? And Rosita Chiquita�whatever her name is? |
Tramp | Ch-Chiquita, oh, oh, yes, well I� |
Lady | As far as I am concerned you needn�t worry about your old heel. |
Tramp | M-My heel? |
Lady | I don�t need you to shelter and protect me. |
Tramp | Yes, but-but� |
Lady | If you grow careless, don�t blame me. And I don�t care if the Cossacks do pick you up. Goodbye! And take this with you.she rejects his bone and starts sobbing. Tramp goes away saying nothing. A rat that has been haunting the area sees that Lady is chained up, and takes the opportunity to sneak up to the baby�s room. Lady strains against her chain and barks furiously. |
Aunt Sarah | opening a window Stop that! Hush! Now! Hush! Stop that racket! |
Tramp | Tramp, hearing the commotion comes rushing back, and chases after the rat up to the baby�s room where he kills it. What�s wrong Pige? |
Lady | A rat! |
Tramp | Where? |
Lady | Upstairs. In the baby�s room. |
Tramp | How do I get in? |
Lady | The little door on the porch. |
Tramp enter in the house and sniffing he finds the rat in the baby�s room. A terrible fight starts. Lady continues barking and she success in breaking her chain, joins Tramp. When she arrives she sees how Tramp is fighting with the rat but the baby�s crib is on the floor but the baby�s right. While Lady watches over the baby, Tramp corners the rat at last behind the curtains and kills it. Aunt Sarah has heard the noise and the cries� | |
Aunt Sarah | Merciful heavens! Oh, you poor little darling. Now, now, now, now, now. Thank goodness you�re not harm. You-your vicious brutes. Back, get back! Go on! Get back! The pound! The pound! That�s it!! I�ll call the pound! She dashes in to find the two dogs who she assumes have been attacking the baby. Lady is locked in the cellar while Tramp is taken off to the pound. She has not seen the rat Come here you, come here. Come on. Come on. Come along! I�ll call them this minute. Couldn�t sleep a wink with that brute in the house. We hear a phone bell rings Hello! Hello! I don�t care if you�re alone there, young man. I insist you pick him up immediately.Lady tries to find a escape and helps her friend, but it�s of no use. |
Scene changes. Jim Dear and Darling are going back home and see the City Pound Wagon in front of their house. | |
Jim | Darling, look. |
Aunt Sarah | And if you want my advice, you�ll destroy that animal at once. |
Dog Catcher | Don�t worry ma�am. We�ve been after this one for months. We�ll take care of him. |
Darling | Well what do you suppose� |
Jim | Hey, what�s going on here? |
Dog Catcher | Just pickin� up a stray mister. Come on! Get up! Caught him attackin� a baby! |
Jim | Good heavens! |
Darling | My baby! |
Jim | Aunt Sarah! |
Darling | Aunt Sarah! Aunt Sarah! |
Jim | Aunt Sarah! |
Darling | Aunt Sarah! |
Jock | I was certain he was no good the moment I first laid eyes on him. |
Trusty | Yeah, but, uh, I never thought he�d do a thing like that. |
Aunt Sarah | Thank goodness I got there in time. There they were, crib overturned� |
Jim | I�m sure there must be some mistake. I know Lady wouldn�t�Lady rushes over to the curtains and barks louder |
Aunt Sarah | Watch out! That dog�s loose! Keep her away! |
Jim | Nonsense. She�s trying to tell us something. What is it old girl? What are you trying�? Jim lifts a corner of the courtain and there lay the dead rat. Then, they understand everythingDarling! Aunt Sarah! Come here! |
Aunt Sarah | What is it, Jim? A rat! Outside, Trusty and Jock have heard the news. So they decide not to waste any time on going after the dog catcher to stop him. |
Trusty | A rat! We should have known. |
Jock | I misjudged him�badly. |
Trusty | Come on. We have to stop that wagon. |
Jock | But man, we don�t know which way they�ve gone. |
Trusty | We�ll track �em down. |
Jock | A-a-and then? |
Trusty | We�ll hold �em. Hold �em at bay |
Jock | Now what? |
Trusty | The scent. Follow the scent. |
Jock | Let�s face it man. We both know you�ve lost your sense of smell. Using Trusty�s nonexistent sense of smell, they try to track down the wagon, and miraculously they do, racing after it with Jim dear and Darling not far behind in a cab. They succeed in stopping the wagon and saving Tramp, but in the excitement the wagon overturns, crushing poor Trusty |
Dog Catcher | Go on! Get outta here! Go on you! Get away! Go on! Get away! Watch it now! Watch it! Watch it! |
Tramp | Hi Pige! Both smile to each other |
It�s Christmas time again: Jim Dear and Darling have quite a time getting them all in a Christmas picture, all holding still at the same time. The baby�s grown up and Lady and the Tramp have a litter of naughty puppies. | |
Jim | All right everybody! Watch the birdie! Steady now. Hold it! I guess I used a little too much. Uh-oh, Darling. Visitors. |
Darling | Visitors? Why, it�s Jock! |
Jim | And good old Trusty. |
Yes, the poor old Trusty has only suffered a broken leg and he has a cast on it. | |
Jock | Careful man. Careful. It�s a wee bit slippery. |
Trusty | Yes, yes. |
Tramp | All right boy! We�ll let them in. |
Darling | No, no, not you, young man. You�re going to take a nap. |
Jim | Well, merry Christmas. Come in. Come in. If you just step in the parlour I�ll see about refreshments. Oh darling, where did you put the dog biscuits? You know, the box Aunt Sarah sent for Christmas. |
Darling | In the kitchen, Jim Dear. |
Trusty | Oh no doubt about it. They�ve got their mother�s eyes. |
Jock | Aye. But there�s a bit of their father in �em too. Well and I see you finally acquired a collar. |
Tramp | Oh yes, complete with licence. |
Trusty | Oh yeah, a new collar. Caught the scent the moment I came in the house. |
Jock | Trusty I says. Trusty somebody�s wearin� a new collar. |
Trusty | Of course, now my sense of smell is very highly developed. Runs in the family, you know? |
Jock | There�ll be no livin� with him from now on |
Trusty | as my grandpappy, Old Reliable, used to say� I don�t recollect if I ever mentioned Old Reliable before? |
Puppies | No you haven�t, Uncle Trusty. |
Trusty | Huh? I haven�t? Well, uh, as Old Reliable used to say� He�d say, uh, uh, he�d say, uh, uh Uh-hmmm? Doggone! You know. I clean forgot what it was he used to say. |
Off singing voice | Peace, my children of good will peace, my children, peace, be still |
