This Is Not Over Yet

Lyrics

Oh, my sweet Lucille! How did you ever manage it?
 You don't know what any of this means?
 It means cancel all your parties
 Forget your big parade
 It means the crowd will not be cheering
 So despite what you've been hearing
 You can lay down your spade
 It means my mother can stop crying
 My rabbi's eulogy can wait
 It means that Dorsey can stop beaming
 And my cousin can stop dreaming
 Of his portion of my estate
 It means, No! This isn't over!
 No, the date's not set!
 No, I won't wake up tomorrow
 Drowning in my sweat!
 It means I've got the greatest partner
 Any man can get!
 It means I'll never ever, ever
 Underestimate that woman
 'Cause this is not over yet!
 Tell my uncle not to worry!
 Tell the Reaper not to hurry!
 Make the hangman stop his drumming
 'Cause I'm coming into town to win the day!
 Somehow I haven't, with my scheming
 Screwed things up beyond redeeming
 And we're finally on our way!
 And no, this isn't over!
 Hell, it's just begun!
 Hail the Resurrection of
 The South's least fav'rite son!
 It means I took a vow for better
 And two is better than one!
 It means the journey ahead might get shorter
 I might reach the end of my rope
 But suddenly, loud as a mortar, there is hope
 Finally hope! (Yes, Leo, there is hope)
 And no, this isn't over (No, this isn't over)
 No, we aren't through (We aren't through)
 No, there's still a million things
 That you and I can do! (I will speak for you, Leo)
 And I would never have believed it
 The things I see in you!
 It means a man who isn't guilty
 Doesn't have to walk the plank!
 It means the gallows still are vacant
 And we've got my wife to thank!
 It means
 You shouldn't underestimate
 Lucille and Leo Frank
 'Cause this is not over yet!
