<br>

PETRUCHIO:<br>

I've come to wive it wealthily in Padua,<br>

If wealthily then happily in Padua.<br>

If my wife has a bag of gold,<br>

Do I care if the bag be old?<br>

I've come to wive it wealthily in Padua.<br>

<br>

ENSEMBLE:<br>

He's come to wive it wealthily in Padua.<br>

<br>

PETRUCHIO:<br>

I heard you mutter, "Zounds, a loathsome lad you are."<br>

I shall not be disturbed one bit<br>

If she be but a quarter-wit,<br>

If she only can talk of clo'es<br>

While she powders her goddamned nose,<br>

I've come to wive it wealthily in Padua.<br>

<br>

ENSEMBLE:<br>

He's come to wive it wealthily in Padua.<br>

<br>

PETRUCHIO:<br>

I heard you say, "Gadzooks, completely mad you are!"<br>

'Twouldn't give me the slightest shock<br>

If her knees now and then should knock,<br>

If her eye were a wee bit crossed,<br>

Were she wearing the hair she'd lost,<br>

Still the damsel I'll make my dame,<br>

In the dark they are all the same,<br>

I've come to wive it wealthily in Padua.<br>

<br>

ENSEMBLE:<br>

He's come to wive it wealthily in Padua.<br>

<br>

PETRUCHIO:<br>

I heard you say, "Good gad, but what a cad you are!"<br>

Do I mind if she fret and fuss,<br>

If she fume like Vesuvius,<br>

If she roar like a winter breeze<br>

On the rough Adriatic seas,<br>

If she screams like a teething brat,<br>

If she scratch like a tiger cat,<br>

If she fight like a raging boar,<br>

I have oft stuck a pig before,<br>

I've come to wive it wealthily in Padua.<br>

<br>

ENSEMBLE:<br>

With a hunny, nunny, nunny,<br>

And a hey, hey, hey,<br>

<br>

PETRUCHIO:<br>

Not to mention money, money<br>

For a rainy day,<br>

<br>

PETRUCHIO & ENSEMBLE:<br>

I (He's) come to wive it wealthily in Padua.<br>
