The song is written by Jule Styne and Bob Merrill.
MRS. BRICE: (spoken) At least she got you a good job What am I but a built in babysitter?
(sung) My work is done My work is done
EDDIE: Our work is done She doesn't need us She'll have cake We'll have crumbs Be careful of the stage door Here she comes Here she comes Hello, Fanny, hello
MRS. BRICE: Hello, Fanny, it's me, mama What do you mean, "mama who?"
EDDIE: It's good to see her from afar
MRS. BRICE: I lost a daughter but I gained a star
EDDIE: And who taught her everything she knows? I taught her everything she knows She sings likе a bird Yes, indeed But who used to stand therе And feed her the seed? Who taught her how to pick her clothes?
MRS. BRICE: (spoken) Eddie, that I did
EDDIE: Who taught her how to tap her toes? Will she admit it? Kid, you said it They all forget they know ya When it comes to credit Tell me, have you ever seen her take this pose? I taught her everything How to hoof and how to sing I taught her everything she knows
MRS. BRICE: Who taught her everything she knows?
EDDIE: (spoken) Let me hear it, Rosie
MRS. BRICE: I taught her everything she knows
EDDIE: (spoken) You’re preachin’ to the choir
MRS. BRICE: That mischievous smile The devil may care You don't pull Such mannerisms Out of thin air The men who are older might prefer The original manufacturer
BOTH: It hurts me to say it But why not be fair? When you see her on the stage You're seeing me there
MRS. BRICE: She still has trouble executing one of those, yeah
EDDIE: If they could have paid the price They'd have hired Rosie Brice
MRS. BRICE: Who stands after every show Selling matches in the snow?
EDDIE: But in the world of grease paint That's the way it goes
BOTH: We taught her everything How to hoof and how to sing We taught her how to whack A joke from here to Hackensack
EDDIE: We taught her everything
MRS. BRICE: We taught her everything
BOTH: We taught her everything she knows
