00:00We've got to steam up, you put the dream up, the river's calling you, listen to my friend.
00:08Follow that river, that mighty river, there's real adventure around every man.
00:13Hear that whistle blow, see that panel go.
00:17Who knows what we're heading toward?
00:21That Mississippi, she is a mystery, she's just waiting there to be explored.
00:25Go get your gear, mate, we'll meet you, hear me.
00:28Now jump, welcome aboard.
00:45The children are so late, what could have happened to them?
00:48Now don't worry, Mrs. Thatcher, they'll be along any minute.
00:51And I know the boys will take care of Becky.
00:54Tom!
00:56Huck!
00:58I don't see why we had to come this way.
01:12Because it's a shortcut, Becky.
01:14You said you wanted to get home quick because you might be worried.
01:17See that old headstone, Becky?
01:19That's where me and Huck saw Engine Joe killed Dr. Robinson.
01:23Engine Joe swore he'd do the same thing to us for telling on him.
01:26Just before he escaped from calling.
01:28Oh, don't even say that!
01:30Oh, Engine Joe's downriver by now.
01:33Oh, I'm not staying in this often place another second!
01:38It's Engine Joe!
01:40I'll find you!
01:53I'll find you!
01:53This way!
02:10This way!
02:14No!
02:14That way.
02:35Why have you got away from me, huh?
02:38I'll find you!
02:43No matter where you go, I'll find you!
03:08It ain't here, Your Majesty!
03:10Well, think, man. Where did you put it? Think!
03:15It don't do any good, Your Majesty.
03:18Have you looked in the briar patch?
03:20I'd have to be six kinds of an idiot to ever put it there.
03:24Well, that's the first place you should have looked.
03:27It ain't there either.
03:29Keep looking.
03:30That's no ordinary stick you've lost, Grogan.
03:33It's our magic shillelagh.
03:35All our leprechaun power depends on getting it back.
03:39And don't I know it, Your Majesty?
03:41Me, the custodian of it.
03:43Farmer custodian.
03:45You're taking away me job.
03:47If there's no shillelagh, there's nothing to custode.
03:50You better find it, Grogan, or it's out of the forest with you.
03:54Banished?
03:56Forever?
03:57At the very minimum.
04:08Tom, I can't walk another step.
04:11But, Becky, we can't rest until we find something to eat.
04:14I'm too tired to eat.
04:16I'm too hungry to rest.
04:18All right, Becky. You stay here while me and Hug Scout around.
04:21There must be someone living in this forest.
04:27Now, by retracing our steps, we're bound to locate it.
04:38I remember it was right here I warned you to watch out for this rock.
04:45So you did, just before you tripped over it.
04:49Look!
04:52There it is! The magic shillelagh!
04:57But, Grogan, look what's next to it!
05:02What'll we do?
05:04Maybe we can scare her off.
05:06Good idea. You start, Houlihan.
05:09She's getting ready to run.
05:26Oh, me, she's got the shillelagh.
05:31Louder! We've got to scare her into dropping it.
05:34I had a frog in me loin.
05:51Glory be.
05:55What's going on here?
05:57What are you doing?
05:59Oh, no, you don't!
06:01Who are you?
06:02Just three insignificant little leprechauns, miss.
06:06You can throw that stick away.
06:08We're absolutely harmless.
06:09I'd be glad to throw it away for you.
06:11Never mind.
06:12You were trying to scare me, weren't you?
06:14Oh, perish the thought.
06:15We were just having a bit of fun.
06:17I'm sorry.
06:18I'm sorry.
06:19I'm sorry.
06:20I'm sorry.
06:21I'm sorry.
06:22I'm sorry.
06:23I'm sorry.
06:24I'm sorry.
06:25I'm sorry.
06:26I'm sorry.
06:27We were just having a bit of fun.
06:29Well, if you think scaring people is fun, you can just, just go jump in a lake.
06:42What happened?
06:44Help!
06:45Leprechauns can't swim!
06:48Get us out of here!
06:50Use the magic shillelagh!
06:52Magic shillelagh?
06:54Come out of the lake!
06:55It is magic.
06:56Begging your pardon, miss.
06:57It belongs to us leprechauns.
06:58I'm the king's special custodian of it.
06:59Well, you should have asked for it, instead of acting like a pack of wild animals.
07:15Here.
07:16Thank you, lass.
07:17Bucko Groghan here will never forget you for this.
07:21Come on, me boys.
07:22Let's carry it back to the king.
07:23La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
07:35And there I was, surrounded by howling wolves, growling bears, roaring lions.
07:42But without twitching an eyelash, I walked right up to the shillelagh and...
07:47Hello.
07:48Ah, it's a female human being.
07:52Stand back, or I'll turn you into a handful of dust.
07:56No need for that, Your Majesty. The Colleen is a friend.
08:00What do you mean, friend?
08:02Well, the fact is, she rendered a bit of assistance in locating the shillelagh.
08:07You mean she found it for you?
08:09In a manner of speaking, yes.
08:11In that case, I'm obliged to you, lass.
08:14And as for you, Groghan, it's out of the forest with you...
08:17...the next time anything happens to the shillelagh.
08:21Now put it back in its rightful place, and make sure it stays there.
08:28I'm still the custodian, and you're still me assistance.
08:38Sure, we're happy now, we've found the prize of every leprechaun.
08:42We'll never be troubled again, again, we'll never be troubled again, again.
08:46You need never fear, while Groghan's here, he'll always save the day.
08:51The magic shillelagh is here to stay.
09:03Oh, it's a lovely day in Ireland, the shamrock's green, it's greener now.
09:08We'll never be troubled again, again, we'll never be troubled again, again.
09:12You need never fear, while Groghan's here, he'll always save the day.
09:17The magic shillelagh is here to stay.
09:25Come on and join us!
09:27.
09:42.
09:45.
09:46.
09:48.
09:51.
09:52Psst, Grogon, you should be putting that shillelagh away.
10:19So I should. You wait here, lass. I'll be back in a jiffy, and then we'll have a real celebration.
10:34Where are we going, Tom?
10:35I don't know. Don't seem to be a soul around here.
10:38Don't move.
10:42What do you want?
10:43Money, gold, jewels.
10:46I don't have anything.
10:47Me neither.
10:48We'll see about that.
10:55Psst, not a sound out of you.
10:57La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
11:27Now, up with you!
11:48Hand it over!
11:57Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
12:03Who's making all the racket while I'm trying to think?
12:07The Shillelagh, Your Majesty! It's gone!
12:09Again? Grogon! What happened?
12:13It was stolen out of the hollow stump!
12:15Oh, no! Grogon!
12:18Where till I get me hands on that incompetent, thick-skulled, blundering knucklehead?
12:23You call me Your Majesty?
12:25The Shillelagh's missing again!
12:27Begging your pardon, sir! That's not so!
12:30Seamus here saw it being taken!
12:33That wasn't the Shillelagh he saw!
12:36What do you mean?
12:37With me usual presence of mind, I put an ordinary stick in the stump.
12:41The real article is hid somewhere else!
12:44Grogon, sometimes you amaze me, but not very often.
12:49Now, who was trying to steal the Shillelagh?
12:52Well, Your Majesty, it was...
12:56It was one of her kind!
12:58He was a boy, kinda skinny, with dark hair, and wearing a flat brown hat!
13:03Tom? That's impossible! Tom's no thief!
13:07There's only one way to get to the truth!
13:10Seamus, go after that boy, and find out what he's up to!
13:16Zarko is going to appreciate us when we give him the stick!
13:20He better, or...
13:22Wait!
13:23Suppose we don't give it to him!
13:25You mean...
13:26If we keep the stick, we've got the magic power!
13:29There's nothing he can do about it!
13:31Are you sure?
13:33So, you are ready to turn against me!
13:42Who are you?
13:44We got that magic Shillelagh for those men!
13:47But you can have it!
13:48Very generous!
13:50You wish to see how it works?
13:53Turn into lizards!
13:58I said, turn into lizards!
14:03This isn't it!
14:05Where is the real one?
14:07That's the only one there was!
14:09One of you better tell me where it is!
14:12Honest!
14:13We don't know!
14:14All right!
14:15Start walking!
14:16Where are you going to take us?
14:18Up ahead, there is a quicksand swamp!
14:20While it's swallowing you up, you can decide if you want to talk!
14:25Walk!
14:26And it was the gypsies that forced the boys to steal the stick out of the stump!
14:40Where are Tom and Huck now?
14:41In terrible trouble!
14:43The gypsy chief is tossing them into the quicksand swamp!
14:47In a few short minutes, they'll be goners!
14:50Your Majesty, you've got to do something!
14:52Grogan! Fetch me the shillelagh!
14:55One magic shillelagh coming up!
15:00I just remembered something!
15:02What?
15:03I forgot where I hid it!
15:15Perhaps a little quicksand will refresh your memory!
15:18It's right up ahead!
15:20Run, Huck!
15:24Come back here!
15:25When I got you, it will be the finish of you!
15:32What will we do now?
15:33In here, quick!
15:37Now, now, don't fret, lass!
15:39I'll find the old magic shillelagh!
15:41I've just got to do a little remembering!
15:43Mr. Grogan, I don't think you'll remember anything at all!
15:46You're just beating around the bush!
15:48Bush!
15:49That's it!
15:50It's right there!
15:51Behind that bush!
15:54Quiet now!
15:55Someone's approaching!
15:56Achoo!
16:09So, come out of there!
16:14The magic stick!
16:15The magic stick!
16:20I've got it!
16:24Ball!
16:32That's me magic shillelagh!
16:33Really!
16:34It works!
16:35With this power, I can do anything!
16:38Come out here!
16:41It's Tom and Huck!
16:43Shhh!
16:44You've got what you want!
16:45Why not let us go?
16:46I'll let you go!
16:47I'll let you go when I'm ready!
16:49Go to the wagon!
16:51Move!
16:54I wish to get out of here before those shifty little runts try to get this back!
16:59Shifty little runts, indeed!
17:01Mr. Grogan, he's taking Tom and Huck!
17:04And the magic shillelagh!
17:06And my neck!
17:07What are we gonna do?
17:09Oh, warra, warra, warra, warra!
17:13Quick!
17:14Into the wagon!
17:16No!
17:19He's gone!
17:20No!
17:22No!
17:24No!
17:25No!
17:28No!
17:30Right!
17:35No!
17:37No!
17:39No!
17:41ницу1
17:43You had to overdo it, Grogan.
17:51Now you've scared the poor beastie into the water.
17:54How will we get to the other side?
17:56Whished. Me mind is working on it.
18:09Hey, Tom. There's just a bolt holding this.
18:12Yeah.
18:13All we need is something to fry it open with.
18:23Ready?
18:25Ready?
18:26Ready.
18:32Graceful as a bird he is.
18:38I knew they'd try something.
18:41I'll get you off of there.
18:48I know how to take care of you.
18:51He's going to use magic on the little fella.
18:58All right. Now turn into a...
19:01Ah-yah!
19:09Open up!
19:10I'll fix you for making me lose the chalet.
19:19Maybe I could wait in and reach it.
19:22Maybe I could wait in and reach it.
19:23The undercurrent is too strong.
19:24You'd fall and be carried over the falls.
19:29Look!
19:30There's our answer.
19:35Let me help you.
19:36There's not a second to lose.
19:43Down you go, Mulvaney.
19:48Brother, we need you.
19:49I'm coming.
19:50Giddy-up, laddie.
19:50I can't reach it.
19:51It's going to float past.
19:52I can't reach it.
19:53It's going to float past.
19:54I'm going to get you.
19:55And I'll get you on the other side of it.
19:56I'll go and get you on the other side of it.
19:57That's a great deal.
19:58Down you go, Marvini.
20:01Brother, we need you.
20:03I'm coming.
20:04Giddy-up, laddie.
20:17I can't reach it.
20:19It's gonna float past.
20:28Stop! Immediately!
20:38To the wagon, men!
20:40Hey! Wait for me!
20:44Well, come over!
20:58Tom, hug!
21:25Yeah, but it was mighty close.
21:27If we hadn't stopped when we did, we...
21:29Hey, how did we happen to stop just like that?
21:33Mr. Grogan did it.
21:35All in a day's work, lads.
21:37All in a day's work.
21:45Thanks for the food, Mr. Grogan.
21:47It should last us till we get out of the forest.
21:49Hope you take good care of the shillelagh from now on.
21:51Don't you worry, lass.
21:53I've fought up a foolproof scheme
21:55to protect it from being stolen.
21:57Look here.
21:59I'll show you what I mean.
22:01There.
22:03How do you like that?
22:05The magic shillelagh is tucked away among them imitations,
22:08and no thieving scoundrel could ever tell which one it is.
22:12That's very clever.
22:14How do you tell?
22:15Why, I simply...
22:17Oh, my goodness.
22:23Good-bye, Mr. Grogan.
22:25Top of the morning to you.
22:26Thanks for the food.
22:27Thanks for everything.
22:28Thanks for everything.
22:29Hi.
22:31I'm here.
23:02You put the dream up, big river's calling you, listen my friend. Follow that river, that mighty river, there's real adventure around every man. Hear that whistle blow, see that panel go, who knows what we're heading toward. That Mississippi, she is a mystery, she's just a way there to be explored. We'll get you here, mate, we'll meet you here, mate, we'll catch up on the floor.
