New Year's Eve Party

Another cup of Maxwell House coffee, George. Sure, pour me a cup, Gracie. You know Maxwell House is always good to the last... ...drop. And that drops good too. Yes, it's Maxwell House coffee time, starring George Burns and Gracie Allen.

With our special guest tonight, Meredith Wilson, B. Benadera, Hans Comrie, Gail Gordon, Harry Lubin and the Maxwell House Orchestra, Bill Goodwin and yours truly totally rage. For America's Thursday night comedy enjoyment, it's George and Gracie.

And for America's everyday coffee drinking enjoyment, it's Maxwell House. Always good to the last drop. As we join the Burnsers tonight, we find them discussing the Galen New Year's Eve party they're planning for tomorrow.

Gracie, we're gonna have the greatest New Year's Eve party in town. Oh, that we are. Money is no object. I've hired an orchestra. You did? Yeah, and I knew he is. Any musicians really come high?

And they leave even higher. And what about the food? Did you take care of that? Mm-hmm, I bought two turkeys. Oh, and I hired a maid to pass around the hors d'oeuvres. This is really gonna be some party.

Mm-hmm. I, uh, I bought champagne. You did? Uh-huh. And at midnight we'll fill our glasses and drink bottoms up. Isn't that an awkward position? Yes, it will spoil my hat. You know, darling, With an office to tomorrow night, you'll be able to sing your very best.

Ah, no. People don't want to hear me sing. Oh, they do, too. And sometime before the party, be sure to learn that new popular song dropped in. The popular song called Drop Dead? Yeah. Well, there must be.

At every sociable, when you get up to sing, you say, what would you like me to do in everybody else? Oh, yes, yes, yes. That's my figure. Oh, drop dead, oh, drop dead, oh, drop dead.
