I'm practicing

to be a philosopher.
48
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,948
If I had a rusty knife
I'd open a vein.
49
00:03:56,049 --> 00:03:57,641
- Whose?
- Art Hawkins'.
50
00:03:57,751 --> 00:03:59,981
He's breaking records
at the State Lake in Chicago
51
00:04:00,086 --> 00:04:02,316
with my band, my arrangements.
52
00:04:03,423 --> 00:04:05,414
Well, I made that band.
I created that sound.
53
00:04:05,525 --> 00:04:07,993
Both: If I didn't get some tough
breaks I'd still be on top...
54
00:04:08,261 --> 00:04:10,252
...bigger than any man
in the music business today.
55
00:04:10,363 --> 00:04:11,853
Have I said it that often?
56
00:04:11,965 --> 00:04:15,560
You're a fool, darling.
You always were.
57
00:04:15,669 --> 00:04:18,467
Takes a fool to wear
these clothes
58
00:04:18,538 --> 00:04:20,028
and play the tunes
that clod wants.
59
00:04:20,307 --> 00:04:22,798
Don't knock country music.
It's the voice of our nation.

60
00:04:22,909 --> 00:04:25,537
Our nation should
see a doctor.
61
00:04:25,612 --> 00:04:26,909
Folk music's big
and it's getting bigger.
62
00:04:26,980 --> 00:04:28,948
If you ever get
to the top again-63
00:04:29,049 --> 00:04:33,042
if, I say-- this is your route.
All you need is the right gimmick.
64
00:04:33,286 --> 00:04:36,847
Gimmick? What gimmick?
I play a quarter-tone sharp
65
00:04:36,957 --> 00:04:39,391
and stomp my foot.
What else do I have to do?
66
00:04:39,492 --> 00:04:41,892
If you were a girl,
I could tell you.
67
00:04:41,995 --> 00:04:43,963
If I were a girl,
maybe I'd get paid.
68
00:04:44,030 --> 00:04:46,328
Oh, Tex, I didn't know
this would happen.
69
00:04:46,399 --> 00:04:49,766
I thought Tallman
was a real crook-that he'd get somewhere.
70
00:04:49,869 --> 00:04:55,364
- A girl's entitled one mistake.
- Yes, but only one.
71
00:04:55,442 --> 00:04:58,536
- I made mine years ago.

- Come on, honey.

72
00:04:58,612 --> 00:05:01,706
Let's shake that medicine man
and head for the big wheel.
73
00:05:01,781 --> 00:05:03,874
We're big time, you and me.
74
00:05:03,950 --> 00:05:07,010
You could find a gimmick for me-a girl with your mind.
75
00:05:07,287 --> 00:05:10,950
In case you forget, Mr. Warner,
my mind is up here
76
00:05:11,057 --> 00:05:13,924
and you better
get back up there.
77
00:05:13,994 --> 00:05:16,986
The natives
are getting restless.
78
00:05:18,565 --> 00:05:23,662
I wish I were twins.
I'd have somebody to blame for this.
79
00:05:23,737 --> 00:05:25,671
( groans )
80
00:05:49,996 --> 00:05:52,692
Fellas, will you take one
of those cases and please put it
81
00:05:52,799 --> 00:05:55,461
in Mr. Tallman's car?
That black Job over there?
82
00:05:55,568 --> 00:05:57,536
Over yonder?
Yes, ma'am.
83
00:06:09,582 --> 00:06:13,609
Man, if I had me a car like this,
I'd get in it, take off

84
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,415
and I wouldn't stop
till I was someplace else.
85
00:06:15,488 --> 00:06:18,013
Yeah,
I know what you mean.
86
00:06:18,291 --> 00:06:19,883
( strums slowly )
87
00:06:26,566 --> 00:06:29,000
Pretty good beat, huh?
88
00:06:29,269 --> 00:06:33,330
Yeah.
Yeah, kinda.
89
00:06:33,406 --> 00:06:35,704
- Wanna get up and dance for us?
- Me?
90
00:06:35,775 --> 00:06:38,073
We could use a hometown touch
to liven things up.
91
00:06:38,311 --> 00:06:40,711
- Oh, I don't dance, ma'am.
- Then how about singing?
92
00:06:40,814 --> 00:06:43,510
You want singing, he's your man.
He sings up a storm.
93
00:06:43,616 --> 00:06:45,743
We could use a good storm
about now.
94
00:06:45,852 --> 00:06:47,820
He's Just kidding, lady.
I don't sing.
95
00:06:47,921 --> 00:06:49,548
Just give this cat a guitar
and stand back.
96
00:06:49,656 --> 00:06:52,352

- Come on, don't be bashful.

- He's Just kidding you.
97
00:06:52,459 --> 00:06:56,919
Come on over and listen to this.
Got some hometown talent here.
98
00:06:57,030 --> 00:07:00,830
- Come on over and listen.
- ( music ends )
99
00:07:00,934 --> 00:07:02,492
- You've got to hear this.
- He's gonna sing.
100
00:07:02,602 --> 00:07:05,833
Hey, Tex, give this boy a guitar
and let's hear him sing.
101
00:07:05,905 --> 00:07:07,304
Up you go, Hopalong.
102
00:07:07,373 --> 00:07:10,001
- So you sing, eh?
- I Just fool with it.
103
00:07:10,243 --> 00:07:13,406
Hey, Skeeter,
give Kadiddlehop here your ax.
104
00:07:15,682 --> 00:07:18,708
Handle it easy.
I owe money on it.
105
00:07:18,785 --> 00:07:20,810
They're all yours, buddy.
106
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,387
Teddy:
Come on, Deke, let's hear it.
107
00:07:22,455 --> 00:07:25,515
Give him a little boogie-woogie.
That'll get him started.
108
00:07:25,625 --> 00:07:28,526
( piano riff plays )

109
00:07:32,465 --> 00:07:35,923
Yeah, now go on, Deke.
Go on.
110
00:07:38,738 --> 00:07:43,072
There's moon that's big and bright
in the Milky Way tonight
111
00:07:43,343 --> 00:07:47,973
But the way you act,
you never would know it's there
112
00:07:48,081 --> 00:07:50,914
Now baby, time's a-wasting
113
00:07:50,984 --> 00:07:53,282
A lot of kisses
I ain't been tasting
114
00:07:53,386 --> 00:07:57,447
I don't know about you
but I'm gonna get my share
115
00:07:57,524 --> 00:08:00,960
I've got a lot of living
to do
116
00:08:01,227 --> 00:08:02,956
A whole lot of loving
to do
117
00:08:03,229 --> 00:08:06,960
Come on, baby,
to make it fun it takes two
118
00:08:07,033 --> 00:08:10,867
Oh yes, I've got a lot
of living to do
119
00:08:10,970 --> 00:08:12,961
A whole lot of loving
to do
120
00:08:13,239 --> 00:08:17,699
And there's no one who I'd
rather do it with-a than-a you
121

00:08:17,811 --> 00:08:19,779

You're the prettiest thing
I've seen
122
00:08:19,879 --> 00:08:22,507
But you treat me
so doggone mean
123
00:08:22,582 --> 00:08:25,915
Ain't you got no heart
I'm dying to hold you near
124
00:08:27,453 --> 00:08:31,947
Why do you keep me waiting?
Why don't you start cooperating?
125
00:08:32,058 --> 00:08:36,256
And the things I say are
the things you want to hear
126
00:08:36,329 --> 00:08:39,992
Oh, I got a lot
of living to do
127
00:08:40,266 --> 00:08:41,824
Got a lot of loving to do
128
00:08:41,901 --> 00:08:45,894
Come on baby,
to make it fun it takes two
129
00:08:46,005 --> 00:08:48,974
Oh yes, I've got a lot
of living to do
130
00:08:49,075 --> 00:08:51,566
Well I've got a lot
of loving to do
131
00:08:51,644 --> 00:08:54,943
And there's no one who I'd
rather do it with-a than you
132
00:08:56,282 --> 00:09:02,243
And there's no one
who I'd rather do it with
133
00:09:02,355 --> 00:09:05,552

Than you.
134
00:09:05,658 --> 00:09:07,922
( cheering )
135
00:09:14,334 --> 00:09:18,964
Well, y'all got some right lively
local talent in these parts.
136
00:09:19,806 --> 00:09:22,536
Deke, that was great.
137
00:09:22,642 --> 00:09:24,542
- You was the most.
- You and your big mouth.
138
00:09:24,644 --> 00:09:25,872
Only thing it's good for
is to keep your teeth in.
139
00:09:25,979 --> 00:09:28,914
Tex: Once again I want you
to meet our own singing sweetheart.
140
00:09:29,015 --> 00:09:31,711
Sweet Susie Jessup.
141
00:09:34,854 --> 00:09:37,789
All right, Susie.
Go to work.
142
00:09:40,860 --> 00:09:42,657
Tex: Hey!
143
00:09:42,762 --> 00:09:45,526
- What was the big idea?
- I liked him.
144
00:09:45,632 --> 00:09:47,293
He's got something
for the girls.
145
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,368
- You notice that crowd?
- Only the women.
146
00:09:49,469 --> 00:09:51,937

Another chorus and they would

have started throwing things.
147
00:09:52,038 --> 00:09:55,735
Yeah, their door keys.
148
00:09:55,842 --> 00:09:58,640
Hey-where you going, cowboy?
149
00:09:58,745 --> 00:10:01,509
- Lady, I'm not a cowboy.
- You're a whirlwind.
150
00:10:01,614 --> 00:10:05,072
- How long have you been singing?
- Oh, I-151
00:10:06,386 --> 00:10:08,445
What's your hurry?
152
00:10:08,554 --> 00:10:11,682
Look-- come on, Teddy.
We've got to get back to work.
153
00:10:11,791 --> 00:10:16,626
Yeah, work. I told you he sings up
a storm, didn't I, lady?
154
00:10:23,403 --> 00:10:24,734
Get in, Teddy.
155
00:10:24,837 --> 00:10:26,737
You're not going
to run over me, are you?
156
00:10:26,839 --> 00:10:28,739
Excuse me, ma'am.
I'm in kind of a hurry.
157
00:10:28,841 --> 00:10:32,106
I can see that.
Dual carbs,
158
00:10:32,378 --> 00:10:34,642
electrical fuel pump,
159

00:10:34,747 --> 00:10:36,942

nice do-it-yourself Job.
What's your cam?
160
00:10:37,016 --> 00:10:39,450
- Three-quarter race.
- What's she peak at?
161
00:10:39,519 --> 00:10:42,511
- She does all right.
- You ought to install a tach.
162
00:10:42,588 --> 00:10:44,681
- Tach costs money.
- Yeah, money.
163
00:10:44,791 --> 00:10:46,986
I'm Glenda Markle.
164
00:10:47,060 --> 00:10:49,790
You sure know your way
around a car, lady.
165
00:10:49,896 --> 00:10:52,865
You have to in my line of work.
I'm a girl.
166
00:10:52,966 --> 00:10:56,026
How about a little
demonstration?
167
00:10:56,102 --> 00:10:58,627
Go on, cat. Show the lady
what the car can do.
168
00:10:58,738 --> 00:11:01,730
Yeah-- I already know
what you can do.
169
00:11:01,841 --> 00:11:04,867
( engine roars )
170
00:11:04,944 --> 00:11:06,878
Takes it a little while
to warm up.
171
00:11:06,946 --> 00:11:08,880
Doesn't everyone?

172
00:11:15,555 --> 00:11:18,456
Glenda:
Crazy! Head back to earth!
173
00:11:29,836 --> 00:11:32,498
Let's coast so we can talk.
174
00:11:32,572 --> 00:11:34,904
- What's your name?
- Deke.
175
00:11:34,974 --> 00:11:36,908
- Deke?
- Deke Rivers.
176
00:11:36,976 --> 00:11:39,877
- Short for Deacon?
- I guess.
177
00:11:39,946 --> 00:11:43,677
I like the way you sing, Deke.
You've got... something.
178
00:11:43,783 --> 00:11:47,685
I don't know what it is.
Ever think of doing it for a living?
179
00:11:47,787 --> 00:11:50,017
- Everybody thinks.
- Ever try?
180
00:11:50,123 --> 00:11:52,956
Thinking and doing
is two different things.
181
00:11:53,026 --> 00:11:55,586
How much do you make
delivering beer?
182
00:11:55,695 --> 00:11:58,562
How much do you make
doing what you do?
183
00:11:58,631 --> 00:12:02,032
I'm a public relations counsel.
A press agent.

184
00:12:02,301 --> 00:12:04,735
And I don't make enough
to suit me. Do you?
185
00:12:04,837 --> 00:12:07,305
Does anybody?
186
00:12:07,373 --> 00:12:11,969
You're a hard one to talk to.
We better stop coasting.
187
00:12:14,580 --> 00:12:17,276
Now, how'd you like
to come with me-188
00:12:17,383 --> 00:12:20,284
- sing with Tex Warner's band?
- You'd pay me for that?
189
00:12:20,353 --> 00:12:23,720
More than you're making now,
and that would be Just to start.
190
00:12:23,823 --> 00:12:26,849
I don't know. There was a guy
in St. Joe, Missouri one time
191
00:12:26,959 --> 00:12:28,893
told me he'd pay me
to sing in his show.
192
00:12:28,995 --> 00:12:32,726
After I sung he run out on me
and took my guitar with him.
193
00:12:32,832 --> 00:12:36,029
- Then what more can you lose?
- A steady Job.
194
00:12:36,102 --> 00:12:38,366
It's the first one I've had
in a year and I'd like to keep it.
195
00:12:38,471 --> 00:12:41,565
$1 8 a week in tips.
Made 26 bucks last week.
196

00:12:41,674 --> 00:12:43,904

- What would your mother say-- My mother's dead.
197
00:12:44,010 --> 00:12:47,377
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- Both of them, a long time ago.
198
00:12:47,447 --> 00:12:49,108
Then you're on your own?
199
00:12:49,382 --> 00:12:51,612
Yeah, that's why I got to hang
onto something steady.
200
00:12:51,717 --> 00:12:54,652
Someday I'm gonna have a place
of my own, like a farm.
201
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,086
This could be steady.
50 a week to start.
202
00:12:57,356 --> 00:12:59,620
So why not start?
203
00:13:01,461 --> 00:13:03,622
( engine charges )
204
00:13:05,064 --> 00:13:06,861
( music plays )
205
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,871
Have we got a deal?
206
00:13:15,942 --> 00:13:18,570
I think I'll stay here, Miss Markle,
but thanks anyway.
207
00:13:18,678 --> 00:13:23,047
Why don't you think it over?
You've got till 8:00 tomorrow.
208
00:13:26,752 --> 00:13:29,448
We'll be leaving from the hotel.
209
00:13:45,004 --> 00:13:48,838

Operator, may I have the number

of Highway Beverage?
210
00:13:50,610 --> 00:13:53,738
I appreciate your vote
and thank you for coming.
211
00:13:54,614 --> 00:13:56,582
The pleasure is mine, madam.
212
00:13:56,682 --> 00:13:59,981
Remember, a vote for me
is a vote for-- Glenda!
213
00:14:00,052 --> 00:14:01,917
Well, where have you been?
214
00:14:02,021 --> 00:14:04,751
- So long, Jim.
- You going on ahead?
215
00:14:04,857 --> 00:14:08,486
Way ahead.
This is goodbye and good luck.
216
00:14:08,594 --> 00:14:10,255
Tex going with you?
217
00:14:10,329 --> 00:14:12,661
You don't need him, Jim.
I do.
218
00:14:12,765 --> 00:14:17,293
The only thing you need, young lady,
is a little old-fashioned loyalty.
219
00:14:17,403 --> 00:14:20,372
I'm loaded with loyalty,
Mr. Tallman.
220
00:14:20,439 --> 00:14:23,670
But for the last couple of years
it's been misplaced.
221
00:14:26,746 --> 00:14:28,907
Line up whatever you can, Carl.
Anything.

222
00:14:28,981 --> 00:14:31,848
You get the bookings
and she'll get the publicity.
223
00:14:31,951 --> 00:14:35,045
Call me tonight.
I'll talk to you later, Carl.
224
00:14:35,321 --> 00:14:37,983
There's a court date in Longhorn
he can book for tomorrow night.
225
00:14:38,090 --> 00:14:41,617
Boy, did he flip when I told him
you were coming with us.
226
00:14:41,727 --> 00:14:44,093
- What's that?
- An agreement.
227
00:14:44,363 --> 00:14:46,388
Between the party
of the first part
228
00:14:46,499 --> 00:14:49,662
and the party
of the second part.
229
00:14:49,735 --> 00:14:52,795
Cut yourself in
for a pretty big chunk.
230
00:14:52,905 --> 00:14:57,774
I cut you in for a big chunk.
I've got the gimmick.
231
00:14:57,843 --> 00:15:00,980
- Already? What is it?
- Sign the paper.
232
00:15:00,980 --> 00:15:03,744
Huh-uh. I'm not going
to sign that paper.
233
00:15:03,849 --> 00:15:06,613
Look, let's get one thing
straight at the start.

234
00:15:06,719 --> 00:15:10,917
You want me, you can have me-but strictly on a business basis.
235
00:15:11,023 --> 00:15:15,050
And this time, I call the shots.
I handle the money.
236
00:15:15,328 --> 00:15:18,058
Oh, honey, I wouldn't want
to fight with you.
237
00:15:23,369 --> 00:15:26,065
- You still haven't got it.
- Got what?
238
00:15:26,339 --> 00:15:28,068
A gimmick.
239
00:15:33,079 --> 00:15:36,879
And sign your right name-Walter.
240
00:15:39,785 --> 00:15:42,720
- Band member: Watch this one.
- Band member #2: Okay.
241
00:15:42,822 --> 00:15:46,280
What a beautiful morning this is-if we were in New York.
242
00:15:46,359 --> 00:15:50,386
Skeeter, get that bus
into Longhorn by 4:00.
243
00:15:50,496 --> 00:15:53,522
Could make it by 3:00.
There's a road all the way.
244
00:15:57,436 --> 00:16:00,997
- Hey, Susie? Button trouble.
- Sure, Barney.
245
00:16:01,274 --> 00:16:04,710
This gives me something to do
on the bus ride. I don't play cards.
246

00:16:04,810 --> 00:16:06,471

- Anybody else? Socks--?
- All right, little mother.
247
00:16:06,545 --> 00:16:08,536
Get your chicks in the car.
We're on our way.
248
00:16:08,648 --> 00:16:10,946
You ride in the wagon
with me.
249
00:16:11,050 --> 00:16:13,245
We're not leaving
without our gimmick.
250
00:16:13,352 --> 00:16:14,011
Gimmick?
251
00:16:14,253 --> 00:16:16,687
That's what you've
been looking for, isn't it?
252
00:16:16,789 --> 00:16:20,520
Right now I'm looking for it
even harder than you.
253
00:16:25,965 --> 00:16:27,865
( dog barking )
254
00:16:33,706 --> 00:16:37,608
I said 8:00. You're late.
That's no way to start a career.
255
00:16:37,710 --> 00:16:39,701
I wasn't gonna come
but I got fired this morning.
256
00:16:39,812 --> 00:16:41,837
Somebody complained I was late
making a delivery.
257
00:16:41,947 --> 00:16:45,542
That's too bad, Deke.
Maybe it's all for the best.
258
00:16:45,618 --> 00:16:49,281
- Y'all still want me to come?

- Us all sure do, honey.

259
00:16:49,388 --> 00:16:52,084
Tex, you remember Deke Rivers.
260
00:16:52,325 --> 00:16:54,452
- Hi.
- Hi. So this is your gimmick?
261
00:16:54,527 --> 00:16:56,825
Meet Tex officially, Deke.
When you get to know him
262
00:16:56,896 --> 00:16:59,421
you'll love him.
But there's no hurry.
263
00:17:01,467 --> 00:17:04,402
You're not putting that kid
on the stage with my outfit.
264
00:17:04,503 --> 00:17:06,528
You're right.
I'm not.
265
00:17:06,639 --> 00:17:08,732
Come on, boys.
Let's get this show on the road.
266
00:17:08,841 --> 00:17:11,469
It's 250 miles to Longhorn.
267
00:17:16,382 --> 00:17:18,282
So long, Tex.
268
00:17:19,652 --> 00:17:21,984
( dog barking )
269
00:17:22,254 --> 00:17:26,315
( drawls )
Hey, dawg, come here.
270
00:17:26,425 --> 00:17:26,857
You want to go to Longhorn
with me?
271
00:17:30,496 --> 00:17:31,963

Susie:
...should have read
272
00:17:32,064 --> 00:17:34,897
That detour sign
273
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,025
Should have read
274
00:17:37,303 --> 00:17:42,969
That detour sign.
275
00:17:43,075 --> 00:17:44,975
( applause )
276
00:17:47,012 --> 00:17:49,674
Thank you, Susie.
Thank you.
277
00:17:51,717 --> 00:17:55,312
Now folks, we have an extra
surprise for you all tonight.
278
00:17:55,421 --> 00:17:58,720
They tell us one
of Longhorn County's own
279
00:17:58,824 --> 00:18:00,621
has got a different way
with the song.
280
00:18:00,726 --> 00:18:02,591
And if we persuade the boy
281
00:18:02,661 --> 00:18:04,754
he'll come up here and do
a little number for us.
282
00:18:04,864 --> 00:18:06,593
So how about
giving a big hand
283
00:18:06,699 --> 00:18:09,998
for Longhorn County's
own Deke Rivers?
284
00:18:15,241 --> 00:18:16,902

All right, let's have

your little song.
285
00:18:17,009 --> 00:18:19,000
Thank you, Mr. Warner.
Can I borrow your guitar?
286
00:18:19,278 --> 00:18:21,337
Why sure.
Here you are.
287
00:18:21,447 --> 00:18:24,473
I've never seen him before
but he's cute.
288
00:18:24,583 --> 00:18:27,552
Isn't he?
He works over in Little River.
289
00:18:27,653 --> 00:18:29,587
I feel it in my leg
290
00:18:29,655 --> 00:18:31,520
I feel it in my shoe
291
00:18:31,624 --> 00:18:33,854
Tell me, pretty baby,
if you think you feel it, too
292
00:18:33,959 --> 00:18:35,950
Let's have a party
293
00:18:36,061 --> 00:18:38,723
Ooh, let's have a party
294
00:18:40,733 --> 00:18:43,702
Send to the store
and let's buy some more
295
00:18:43,769 --> 00:18:46,704
Let's have a party tonight
296
00:18:46,772 --> 00:18:48,535
So, baby, paint your lips
297
00:18:48,607 --> 00:18:50,507
And regulate your wig

298
00:18:50,576 --> 00:18:53,272
And bring along a shovel
if you really want to dig
299
00:18:53,379 --> 00:18:54,607
Let's have a party
300
00:18:54,713 --> 00:18:58,046
Ooh, let's have a party
301
00:19:00,219 --> 00:19:02,915
Send to the store
and let's buy some more
302
00:19:03,022 --> 00:19:06,458
Let's have a party tonight
303
00:19:06,559 --> 00:19:09,460
I've never kissed a bear,
I've never kissed a goon
304
00:19:09,562 --> 00:19:12,690
But I can shake a chicken
in the middle of the room
305
00:19:12,798 --> 00:19:15,232
And have a party
306
00:19:15,334 --> 00:19:17,302
Let's have a party
307
00:19:19,505 --> 00:19:22,531
Send to the store,
let's buy some more
308
00:19:22,641 --> 00:19:24,768
Let's have a party tonight
309
00:19:24,877 --> 00:19:28,404
Here we go,
have a party
310
00:19:28,514 --> 00:19:34,009
Tonight
311

00:19:34,253 --> 00:19:36,278

( applause )
312
00:19:50,469 --> 00:19:54,428
Let's hear it for Claypool
County's own Deke Rivers.
313
00:19:55,741 --> 00:19:57,732
Thank you, Mr. Warner.
Could I borrow a guitar?
314
00:19:57,843 --> 00:19:59,936
Why certainly.
Skeeter, let him have your box.
315
00:20:00,045 --> 00:20:02,775
Strings
are on the outside, huh?
316
00:20:02,882 --> 00:20:04,713
- You know Let's Have A Party?
- Band: Sure.
317
00:20:04,783 --> 00:20:06,512
Okay, key of C.
Let's go.
318
00:20:06,619 --> 00:20:08,519
Some people like to rock
319
00:20:08,621 --> 00:20:10,054
Some people like to roll
320
00:20:10,322 --> 00:20:12,847
But moving and a-grooving
gonna satisfy my soul
321
00:20:12,958 --> 00:20:14,949
Let's have a party
322
00:20:15,027 --> 00:20:17,393
Ooh, let's have a party
323
00:20:17,496 --> 00:20:19,487
Let's have a party
324
00:20:19,598 --> 00:20:22,396

Send to the store

and let's buy some more
325
00:20:22,501 --> 00:20:25,061
Let's have a party tonight
326
00:20:25,337 --> 00:20:28,738
I've never kissed a bear,
I've never kissed a goon
327
00:20:28,841 --> 00:20:31,639
But I can shake a chicken
in the middle of the room
328
00:20:31,744 --> 00:20:33,507
Let's have a party
329
00:20:33,612 --> 00:20:36,080
Ooh, Let's have a party
330
00:20:36,315 --> 00:20:38,340
Let's have a party
331
00:20:38,450 --> 00:20:41,010
Send to the store
And let's buy some more
332
00:20:41,120 --> 00:20:44,351
Let's have a party tonight
333
00:20:44,456 --> 00:20:47,687
The meat is on the stove,
the bread is getting hot
334
00:20:47,793 --> 00:20:50,489
Everybody come and taste
the possum Papa shot
335
00:20:50,563 --> 00:20:53,589
Let's have a party
336
00:20:53,699 --> 00:20:57,066
Let's have a party
337
00:20:57,136 --> 00:21:00,071
Send to the store
And let's buy some more

338
00:21:00,139 --> 00:21:04,769
Let's have a party tonight.
We're gonna have...
339
00:21:04,877 --> 00:21:09,746
A party tonight.
340
00:21:11,317 --> 00:21:13,080
( applause )
341
00:21:20,759 --> 00:21:23,592
I don't want
to be a tiger
342
00:21:23,696 --> 00:21:26,028
'Cause tigers play too rough
343
00:21:26,098 --> 00:21:28,828
I don't want to be a lion
344
00:21:28,901 --> 00:21:33,736
'Cause lions ain't the kind
you love enough...
345
00:21:37,376 --> 00:21:39,537
I got a lot of living to do
346
00:21:39,612 --> 00:21:41,546
Whole lot of loving to do
347
00:21:41,647 --> 00:21:45,048
And there's no one who I'd
rather do it with-a than you
348
00:21:49,088 --> 00:21:52,615
Hot dog, my heart
is gonna go insane
349
00:21:52,691 --> 00:21:56,024
Hot dog, when you come
walking off the train
350
00:21:56,095 --> 00:21:57,653
Oh how lonely
I have been

351
00:21:57,763 --> 00:21:59,628
But when that Santa Fe
pulls in
352
00:21:59,732 --> 00:22:01,495
Hot dog.
353
00:22:16,348 --> 00:22:19,374
It's only 8 7 miles to Rodeo City
so I'm making the Jump tonight.
354
00:22:19,451 --> 00:22:21,510
- You keep up the good work.
- Hey, Deke.
355
00:22:21,620 --> 00:22:23,781
- Yes, sir?
- Come here, will you, kid?
356
00:22:27,993 --> 00:22:31,793
Now, Deke,
the boys in the outfit,
357
00:22:31,864 --> 00:22:36,028
Glenda, Susan-we all think it's about time
358
00:22:36,301 --> 00:22:37,928
you stopped getting up
out of the audience.
359
00:22:38,037 --> 00:22:40,562
Beginning tomorrow
you're starting right out
360
00:22:40,639 --> 00:22:42,539
on the stage with the rest
of us.
361
00:22:42,608 --> 00:22:45,736
And from now on, kid,
you're not borrowing my ax.
362
00:22:45,844 --> 00:22:47,778
Hey, Susie.
363
00:22:50,482 --> 00:22:52,382

That's for you from Tex.

364
00:22:53,585 --> 00:22:55,382
What-365
00:22:56,622 --> 00:22:59,557
From here on in, you're busting
your own strings.
366
00:22:59,658 --> 00:23:02,422
Okay, Ramblers,
let's get to rambling.
367
00:23:02,494 --> 00:23:04,291
( all cheer )
368
00:23:04,363 --> 00:23:06,763
( horn honking )
369
00:23:09,668 --> 00:23:11,829
- Hey!
- Hey.
370
00:23:14,606 --> 00:23:17,074
- Where did you get that?
- Here, Monkey Ward's.
371
00:23:17,342 --> 00:23:19,936
I bet you had to get there early
before they were all gone.
372
00:23:20,045 --> 00:23:23,071
- Susan helped me pick it out.
- Oh.
373
00:23:23,348 --> 00:23:25,282
I thought you'd like it,
Miss Markle.
374
00:23:25,350 --> 00:23:27,409
Sure I like it-for streetwear.
375
00:23:27,486 --> 00:23:31,479
But on stage,
I want them to see that face.
376

00:23:40,466 --> 00:23:47,531

I am Just
a lonesome cowboy
377
00:23:47,606 --> 00:23:55,377
And I'm traveling
all alone
378
00:23:55,481 --> 00:24:02,649
I ain't even got a nickel
379
00:24:02,755 --> 00:24:11,026
To call my baby
on the phone
380
00:24:14,767 --> 00:24:16,792
( whistling )
381
00:24:20,038 --> 00:24:24,907
Band:
Ride, ride, ride
382
00:24:25,010 --> 00:24:30,414
Just beyond the mountain
lies a city
383
00:24:30,516 --> 00:24:33,952
And I hear it calling me
384
00:24:34,052 --> 00:24:35,451
Me...
385
00:24:35,554 --> 00:24:40,685
Saddle up and ride,
you lonesome cowboy
386
00:24:40,793 --> 00:24:43,853
Here is where you'll find
your destiny
387
00:24:43,962 --> 00:24:45,862
Destiny...
388
00:24:48,100 --> 00:24:53,333
In my dreams the lights
shine bright and pretty
389

00:24:53,405 --> 00:24:58,536

Near to me and yet so far
390
00:24:58,610 --> 00:25:03,638
Will I always be
a lonesome cowboy?
391
00:25:03,749 --> 00:25:05,614
Glenda: Look at the women.
What's he doing to them?
392
00:25:08,387 --> 00:25:10,912
If I were a girl,
I could tell you.
393
00:25:12,391 --> 00:25:15,451
Ride, ride, ride
394
00:25:15,561 --> 00:25:17,722
Ride along, cowboy
395
00:25:17,830 --> 00:25:21,630
Cowboy, cowboy
396
00:25:23,302 --> 00:25:25,827
Sing-a, sing-a, sing
397
00:25:32,644 --> 00:25:37,581
Will I ever leave
this lonesome valley?
398
00:25:37,649 --> 00:25:42,643
Really see the lights
that shine?
399
00:25:42,754 --> 00:25:49,387
Gotta find what lies
beyond the mountain...
400
00:25:49,494 --> 00:25:53,021
- Singing too soft.
- No one's coughing.
401
00:25:53,298 --> 00:25:56,096
Maybe they ran out
of cigarettes.
402

00:25:56,368 --> 00:26:03,035

I am Just
a lonesome cowboy
403
00:26:04,376 --> 00:26:10,542
And I'm traveling
all alone
404
00:26:11,817 --> 00:26:17,483
If you don't
call me, baby
405
00:26:19,725 --> 00:26:25,527
Then I'm never
coming home...
406
00:26:25,631 --> 00:26:28,862
What's your number, hon'?
I'll call you.
407
00:26:28,967 --> 00:26:30,832
( laughter )
408
00:26:33,472 --> 00:26:38,500
Then I ain't coming...
409
00:26:38,577 --> 00:26:42,536
Home.
410
00:26:47,085 --> 00:26:48,780
Congratulations.
Do you hear them?
411
00:26:48,887 --> 00:26:51,947
Hear them? I liked to died,
little girl yelled out like she did.
412
00:26:52,024 --> 00:26:55,016
That's nothing to be scared of.
She Just got carried away.
413
00:26:55,294 --> 00:26:57,592
I don't hear them yelling
when Susan's out there.
414
00:26:57,696 --> 00:27:00,460
That's the difference between us.
They really go for you.

415
00:27:00,532 --> 00:27:04,332
Me they Just tolerate.
Oh, I'm on.
416
00:27:06,638 --> 00:27:09,835
- Hey!
- Did it again, huh?
417
00:27:11,576 --> 00:27:14,602
You dirty bird.
Man, I sure wish
418
00:27:14,713 --> 00:27:16,874
somebody would invent
a birdcage that cleans itself.
419
00:27:16,982 --> 00:27:20,474
I wish somebody would invent
a guitar string I can't break, too.
420
00:27:20,585 --> 00:27:24,248
- Glenda: Decent?
- No, come on in.
421
00:27:25,357 --> 00:27:26,915
- Hi.
- Hi.
422
00:27:27,025 --> 00:27:28,890
- Excuse us, Skeeter?
- Oh yeah, sure.
423
00:27:28,994 --> 00:27:31,622
We were Just going to do
a little housecleaning anyway.
424
00:27:31,697 --> 00:27:34,257
Weren't we, Matilda?
425
00:27:34,333 --> 00:27:37,825
If you really want
a new shirt, Deke,
426
00:27:37,936 --> 00:27:40,666
try this one on for size.
427

00:27:41,907 --> 00:27:44,501

- Did you buy this?
- Well, I don't sew.
428
00:27:44,576 --> 00:27:46,942
I mean, you went out and-429
00:27:48,413 --> 00:27:50,404
That's real nice of you,
Miss Markle.
430
00:27:50,482 --> 00:27:52,416
Can't you call me Glenda?
431
00:27:52,484 --> 00:27:55,476
The sleeves
are kind of long, huh?
432
00:27:55,587 --> 00:27:57,418
Oh, not too.
433
00:27:57,489 --> 00:27:59,514
Maybe Susan can take them in
a couple inches.
434
00:27:59,624 --> 00:28:01,785
Maybe she could.
435
00:28:01,893 --> 00:28:05,260
Aren't you spending a lot
of time with her lately?
436
00:28:05,330 --> 00:28:07,355
Well...
437
00:28:07,466 --> 00:28:09,934
Susan...
438
00:28:10,035 --> 00:28:12,299
- well, I can talk to her.
- You can talk to me.
439
00:28:12,371 --> 00:28:14,965
In school I got an A
in conversation.
440
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,508

I know, but with you, ma'am,

it's a little different.
441
00:28:17,609 --> 00:28:22,376
- It's more business with you.
- Business?
442
00:28:22,447 --> 00:28:24,915
Finding you was part
of my Job for Tex.
443
00:28:25,017 --> 00:28:27,577
Of course that doesn't mean
I'll always be here.
444
00:28:27,686 --> 00:28:31,019
If he wanted to fire me tomorrow,
that would be the end of it.
445
00:28:31,289 --> 00:28:33,280
Well, that ain't likely
to happen, is it?
446
00:28:33,392 --> 00:28:35,292
It could.
447
00:28:35,394 --> 00:28:37,555
Perhaps it's good
we had this little chat.
448
00:28:37,662 --> 00:28:40,426
I'm a a big one for a quick
goodbye, I wouldn't have time.
449
00:28:40,499 --> 00:28:44,833
Well, I'm not much
on business deals, but I figure...
450
00:28:46,538 --> 00:28:49,063
that you and I should have
some kind of an agreement.
451
00:28:49,341 --> 00:28:54,074
So if Tex lets you go
then I go, too.
452
00:28:54,346 --> 00:28:59,340
Deke, I wasn't going to bring it up,

but as long as you did...

453
00:29:01,219 --> 00:29:04,746
I had this contract prepared.
Just in case.
454
00:29:04,856 --> 00:29:06,881
Yeah, I know.
455
00:29:06,958 --> 00:29:09,825
Mike Harris is the lawyer
that typed it up back in Delville.
456
00:29:09,928 --> 00:29:13,989
He told me.
Got a pencil?
457
00:29:15,267 --> 00:29:17,929
It's not legal
unless it's in ink.
458
00:29:24,576 --> 00:29:26,942
I always feel so...
459
00:29:27,045 --> 00:29:30,537
- safe when you're driving.
- Me, too.
460
00:29:31,817 --> 00:29:34,285
The line that girl threw him
tonight didn't hurt any.
461
00:29:34,386 --> 00:29:37,253
No, it didn't hurt a bit.
462
00:29:37,355 --> 00:29:40,290
I really think the kid's
going to make it.
463
00:29:40,392 --> 00:29:42,724
Put me right back
in the money.
464
00:29:43,929 --> 00:29:46,489
( horn honking )
465
00:29:49,434 --> 00:29:51,334

He's gonna get there fast.

466
00:29:51,403 --> 00:29:53,894
- Don't lose him.
- Don't worry.
467
00:30:03,782 --> 00:30:07,274
Hot dog, you say
you're really coming back
468
00:30:07,352 --> 00:30:10,753
Hot dog, I'm waiting
at the railroad track
469
00:30:10,856 --> 00:30:13,984
Hot dog, you say
you're coming home for good
470
00:30:14,092 --> 00:30:17,391
Hot dog, I'm going
to keep on knocking wood
471
00:30:17,496 --> 00:30:18,986
And baby,
I can hardly wait
472
00:30:19,097 --> 00:30:22,328
I'm gonna meet you
at the gate, hot dog
473
00:30:24,402 --> 00:30:27,701
I fell in love with you
and then you went away
474
00:30:27,772 --> 00:30:31,037
But now you're coming
home to stay
475
00:30:31,109 --> 00:30:34,510
Hot dog, soon everything
will be all right
476
00:30:34,613 --> 00:30:37,810
Hot dog, we're gonna have
a ball tonight
477
00:30:37,916 --> 00:30:39,611
I've got a pocketful

of dimes
478
00:30:39,718 --> 00:30:42,619
It's gonna be
Just like old times, hot dog
479
00:30:42,687 --> 00:30:44,678
( screaming )
480
00:30:44,789 --> 00:30:48,486
You went away
and every day was misery
481
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,757
But now you're coming
back to me
482
00:30:51,863 --> 00:30:55,355
Hot dog, my heart
is gonna go insane
483
00:30:55,433 --> 00:30:58,596
Hot dog, when you come
walking off the train
484
00:30:58,703 --> 00:31:00,330
Oh how lonely
I have been
485
00:31:00,438 --> 00:31:03,430
But when that Santa Fe
pulls in, hot dog...
486
00:31:09,681 --> 00:31:13,014
Hot dog, I'm waiting
at the railroad track
487
00:31:13,285 --> 00:31:16,516
Hot dog, you say
you're coming home for good
488
00:31:16,621 --> 00:31:19,852
Hot dog, I'm gonna keep
on knocking wood
489
00:31:19,958 --> 00:31:22,358
And baby,
I can hardly wait...

490
00:31:22,460 --> 00:31:24,451
Just stand over there and say
you don't like him.
491
00:31:24,563 --> 00:31:25,996
- That's all?
- That's all you want?
492
00:31:26,097 --> 00:31:29,692
That's all. I'm testing a theory.
Ad-lib anything.
493
00:31:32,404 --> 00:31:35,032
Just give them
about two minutes.
494
00:31:37,943 --> 00:31:40,810
- I think he's simply awful.
- What?
495
00:31:40,912 --> 00:31:43,506
Dreadful. Just dreadful.
496
00:31:43,615 --> 00:31:46,345
- Aw, what do you know?
- You squares.
497
00:31:46,451 --> 00:31:47,440
Ladies, if you
don't watch out,
498
00:31:47,552 --> 00:31:48,985
I'll bust all your
Lawrence Welk records!
499
00:31:49,087 --> 00:31:51,021
( women arguing )
500
00:32:01,333 --> 00:32:03,631
Here we go again.
Toss them in and win.
501
00:32:03,702 --> 00:32:06,830
There's a winner.
How's about trying again, buddy?
502

00:32:06,938 --> 00:32:09,498

- It's your turn.
- No, honestly Deke, I can't.
503
00:32:09,574 --> 00:32:11,769
Go ahead, lady.
Your husband will show you how.
504
00:32:11,876 --> 00:32:14,367
Husband?
505
00:32:15,780 --> 00:32:18,510
Oh no, really Deke, you do it.
I don't know how.
506
00:32:18,617 --> 00:32:23,418
It's easy. Just take it like this,
back like this and throw it.
507
00:32:23,488 --> 00:32:25,888
Try anything.
508
00:32:25,991 --> 00:32:28,459
- See what I mean?
- Here, I'll show you.
509
00:32:30,629 --> 00:32:33,757
Another winner.
How about trying again?
510
00:32:33,865 --> 00:32:36,026
- Want to try some more?
- We got enough for one of those?
511
00:32:36,301 --> 00:32:38,462
You got enough for a teddy bear
and a baby doll, too.
512
00:32:38,570 --> 00:32:40,902
What do you know?
Deke, Jr.
513
00:32:41,006 --> 00:32:43,406
- All right, let's play.
- I bet two.
514
00:32:43,508 --> 00:32:45,738
- I'm out.

- I raise five blue.

515
00:32:45,810 --> 00:32:48,074
What do you think, Matilda?
We got enough to call him?
516
00:32:48,313 --> 00:32:49,803
If that bird says anything
517
00:32:49,914 --> 00:32:52,405
I'm going to have a midnight
lunch of parakeet pie.
518
00:32:52,484 --> 00:32:54,884
- Hi, fellas.
- All: Hi.
519
00:32:54,986 --> 00:32:58,649
Deke, see the picture in the paper
of the gals fighting over you?
520
00:32:58,723 --> 00:33:00,418
Yeah, pretty wild, huh?
521
00:33:00,525 --> 00:33:02,720
Skeet, Susan's got something
for you.
522
00:33:02,827 --> 00:33:05,261
It's for Matilda.
523
00:33:05,330 --> 00:33:07,992
Deke won it at the fairgrounds
knocking over milk bottles.
524
00:33:08,266 --> 00:33:10,962
How about that?
A roommate.
525
00:33:11,036 --> 00:33:12,833
Matilda's been lonely
long enough.
526
00:33:12,937 --> 00:33:14,962
What do you mean, lonely?
She's got me.
527

00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,031

There ain't no feathers
on you, Skeet.
528
00:33:17,309 --> 00:33:19,777
He's right. Put the bird
in the cage with Matilda.
529
00:33:19,878 --> 00:33:22,870
He's a male.
Every female wants one.
530
00:33:22,947 --> 00:33:24,972
From what it says in here,
Deke's Just about-531
00:33:25,083 --> 00:33:26,983
Come on, don't believe
everything you read.
532
00:33:27,085 --> 00:33:29,781
He's a tiger, that one.
533
00:33:29,888 --> 00:33:31,822
Deke:
Knock it off.
534
00:33:31,923 --> 00:33:33,720
Tex:
Hi, fellas.
535
00:33:33,825 --> 00:33:37,784
- I'll stay.
- You're a thrill seeker.
536
00:33:38,430 --> 00:33:39,658
Well, fellas, beat it.
537
00:33:39,731 --> 00:33:41,790
You call me?
538
00:33:41,866 --> 00:33:44,494
- Close the door.
- Gladly.
539
00:33:45,737 --> 00:33:47,671
I Just spoke to Carl
long distance.

540
00:33:47,739 --> 00:33:50,799
These pictures paid off
like a daily double.
541
00:33:50,909 --> 00:33:54,709
We're opening Tuesday
at The Grand in Amarillo.
542
00:33:54,779 --> 00:33:58,010
- Amarillo, Texas?
- Uh-huh.
543
00:33:58,116 --> 00:34:00,778
Oh, bless you, baby.
544
00:34:00,885 --> 00:34:03,752
We've hit the city.
It's not Chicago or New York,
545
00:34:03,822 --> 00:34:07,781
but it's a city.
They have sidewalks.
546
00:34:07,859 --> 00:34:10,760
Cops who wear shoes.
A city.
547
00:34:10,829 --> 00:34:14,731
Oh, baby,
I knew you could do it for me.
548
00:34:14,833 --> 00:34:16,960
You can be more grateful
than that.
549
00:34:17,035 --> 00:34:21,335
You know how grateful I can be.
Amarillo's a pretty big town.
550
00:34:21,439 --> 00:34:23,907
We're sure to get good enough
notices to hop to Fort Worth,
551
00:34:24,008 --> 00:34:28,411
then Dallas and it's only a step
to St. Louis-- the Ambassador Hotel.

552
00:34:28,513 --> 00:34:31,448
The Ambassador Hotel.
553
00:34:31,516 --> 00:34:34,815
New York, Chicago. I'll be back
on records, television.
554
00:34:34,919 --> 00:34:38,821
Out of this riding habit
into some stylish threads.
555
00:34:38,890 --> 00:34:43,452
No more Tex.
I'll be Walter Warner again.
556
00:34:43,528 --> 00:34:45,860
You're giving me
too much credit.
557
00:34:45,930 --> 00:34:48,797
I didn't do this for you.
It was Deke, kiss him.
558
00:34:48,867 --> 00:34:52,359
Sure.
I appreciate the kid.
559
00:34:52,437 --> 00:34:54,371
I love him.
560
00:34:54,439 --> 00:34:56,873
He's going to be
our featured vocalist.
561
00:34:56,941 --> 00:35:01,503
Huh-uh-- the manager
of The Grand is booking
562
00:35:01,613 --> 00:35:04,878
Tex Warner and Deke Rivers.
563
00:35:04,983 --> 00:35:07,349
I've got to split the billing
with the kid?
564
00:35:07,419 --> 00:35:10,388
- That's the way it's got to be.

- You mean-565
00:35:10,455 --> 00:35:14,516
- 50-50.
- I, Walter Warner?
566
00:35:14,626 --> 00:35:16,491
You, Tex Warner.
567
00:35:16,594 --> 00:35:18,357
Oh.
568
00:35:18,463 --> 00:35:21,557
Do at least get out of these
clothes into some civvies?
569
00:35:21,666 --> 00:35:23,691
You're going to go a lot further
in cowboy boots
570
00:35:23,802 --> 00:35:25,599
than you ever went
in patent leather shoes.
571
00:35:25,703 --> 00:35:27,694
What's the matter
with patent leather shoes?
572
00:35:27,806 --> 00:35:29,899
I'm comfortable in patent
leather shoes.
573
00:35:30,008 --> 00:35:32,374
I like patent leather shoes.
574
00:35:32,477 --> 00:35:34,274
Patent leather shoes
make me feel...
575
00:35:34,379 --> 00:35:37,712
like anywhere I go
I've got a reservation.
576
00:35:40,785 --> 00:35:45,449
I will not wear
that Hopalong Cassidy suit.
577

00:35:45,523 --> 00:35:46,717

- Tex, it-- No.
578
00:35:46,825 --> 00:35:49,316
Oh, it's for Deke.
579
00:35:49,394 --> 00:35:52,363
If he's getting equal billing
he's going to dress the part.
580
00:35:53,531 --> 00:35:58,491
Whose idea is this split billing,
theater manager's or yours?
581
00:35:58,603 --> 00:36:01,401
Oh, stop.
582
00:36:01,506 --> 00:36:03,337
Deke-- see you a minute?
583
00:36:03,441 --> 00:36:05,909
Great news, we're opening at
The Grand Theater in Amarillo.
584
00:36:06,010 --> 00:36:07,875
- Hey!
- Hey, I raise.
585
00:36:10,048 --> 00:36:13,381
Deke, we've got
a lovely flash for you.
586
00:36:13,451 --> 00:36:15,419
The Grand, huh?
That's great.
587
00:36:15,487 --> 00:36:18,684
Greater than you think.
Tell him, Tex.
588
00:36:18,790 --> 00:36:21,054
Big things for you, kid.
589
00:36:21,292 --> 00:36:23,283
You've going to have
equal billing with me.

590
00:36:23,361 --> 00:36:26,057
- Equal? You really mean that?
- Yeah.
591
00:36:26,331 --> 00:36:28,595
Oh, gee thanks,
Mr. Warner.
592
00:36:28,666 --> 00:36:31,726
- I hope I don't let you down.
- You're gonna be a smash.
593
00:36:31,836 --> 00:36:34,396
May I have your undivided
attention for a moment?
594
00:36:34,506 --> 00:36:37,373
- Observe.
- What is it?
595
00:36:37,442 --> 00:36:39,376
Your new outfit.
596
00:36:41,346 --> 00:36:43,814
Think they'll be able
to see my face?
597
00:36:43,915 --> 00:36:48,579
Pretty stylish, huh?
Got that made up special.
598
00:36:48,653 --> 00:36:51,383
I even had these boots
embroidered special.
599
00:36:51,489 --> 00:36:53,889
Yeah, we certainly did,
didn't we?
600
00:36:53,992 --> 00:36:55,892
Boy, this sure is fancy stuff.
601
00:36:55,994 --> 00:36:58,895
- It's almost too special.
- You're special, Deke.
602
00:36:58,997 --> 00:37:00,965

We were thinking about

giving you a special name
603
00:37:01,232 --> 00:37:03,962
like Tab, or Rock
or something like that.
604
00:37:04,235 --> 00:37:05,998
What for?
605
00:37:06,237 --> 00:37:09,468
I don't know, seems to me
kids like these newfangled names.
606
00:37:09,541 --> 00:37:12,009
What's wrong with Deke Rivers?
I like it, it's a good name.
607
00:37:12,277 --> 00:37:15,041
- It's my name.
- Whoa, back off.
608
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,249
- Simmer down.
- Come on, he was Just Joking.
609
00:37:18,316 --> 00:37:23,344
- Just don't Joke about my name.
- No, Rivers is a a fine name.
610
00:37:23,454 --> 00:37:25,547
I used to know some Rivers
in Minneapolis.
611
00:37:25,623 --> 00:37:27,887
- Your family from Minnesota?
- No, sir.
612
00:37:27,959 --> 00:37:30,655
Where are your folks, Deke?
613
00:37:32,697 --> 00:37:36,030
Thanks for the billing.
Hope I deserve it.
614
00:37:36,301 --> 00:37:39,031
What about your new outfit,
Deke?

615
00:37:39,304 --> 00:37:41,534
You haven't told us
if you like it.
616
00:37:41,606 --> 00:37:44,871
I guess it's okay.
If it's what you want.
617
00:37:44,943 --> 00:37:47,935
It's what you want
that counts, Deke.
618
00:37:48,046 --> 00:37:49,707
Let me go tell the rest
of the boys
619
00:37:49,814 --> 00:37:52,783
we're all getting new outfits.
620
00:37:55,286 --> 00:37:57,811
I don't think Susie will have
to touch these at all.
621
00:37:57,922 --> 00:38:00,823
Yes, ma'am.
Whatever you think.
622
00:38:00,925 --> 00:38:03,553
You're about the only one that
had faith in me, Miss Glenda.
623
00:38:03,661 --> 00:38:06,425
And I'll do whatever you say.
624
00:38:06,531 --> 00:38:09,694
All right then,
take off your clothes.
625
00:38:09,801 --> 00:38:13,293
- My clothes?
- And put these on.
626
00:38:20,445 --> 00:38:22,504
( tires squealing )
627
00:38:23,581 --> 00:38:25,981

( youth laughing )
Oh what's the matter?
628
00:38:27,485 --> 00:38:29,419
Did I scare you, buddy boy?
629
00:38:29,487 --> 00:38:32,513
Hey, Daisy.
Looky yonder.
630
00:38:33,625 --> 00:38:35,650
Youth: Hey, is that the guy
you were telling us about?
631
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,250
Daisy: That's him.
632
00:38:37,328 --> 00:38:39,796
We got to get here
tomorrow, kids.
633
00:38:39,897 --> 00:38:43,025
Wait'll you see
this guy, Wayne.
634
00:38:43,301 --> 00:38:45,963
Why, he had them rocking
and rolling in Jordan Crossing.
635
00:38:46,037 --> 00:38:49,268
What do they know
in the country, Daise? Come on.
636
00:38:49,374 --> 00:38:50,773
( music plays )
637
00:38:50,875 --> 00:38:53,776
- Hi, Frank. How are you?
- Sit down over there, Wayne.
638
00:38:53,878 --> 00:38:55,778
- Hi, Daisy.
- Hi.
639
00:38:59,550 --> 00:39:02,018
- Man, what a crazy ride.
- Well, I'm glad you stopped.

640
00:39:02,253 --> 00:39:04,881
I'm gonna get some more ribs.
That rehearsing made me hungry.
641
00:39:04,989 --> 00:39:08,425
Who ever heard of a cowboy band
rehearsing five hours?
642
00:39:08,526 --> 00:39:10,994
We're liable to start
putting out a good sound.
643
00:39:11,262 --> 00:39:13,492
- Hey, that's him.
- Him who?
644
00:39:13,598 --> 00:39:14,963
Over yonder, Candy.
645
00:39:15,233 --> 00:39:17,793
That's that Deke
Who-cha-ma-callit.
646
00:39:17,869 --> 00:39:19,803
- You mean the one-- Yeah, the one
647
00:39:19,871 --> 00:39:21,839
with the Jumping beans
in his Jeans.
648
00:39:21,939 --> 00:39:24,874
- Isn't he adorable?
- Adorable?
649
00:39:24,976 --> 00:39:28,002
Somebody ought to cut
a firebreak in his sideburns.
650
00:39:28,279 --> 00:39:31,476
You ain't no Yul Brynner
yourself, you know.
651
00:39:31,582 --> 00:39:33,607
- Cut it out, Daisy.
- I'm gonna ask him to sing.
652

00:39:33,718 --> 00:39:36,710

- No, you stay here.
- Get you.
653
00:39:36,821 --> 00:39:41,258
Hey you guys, there's that rock
and roll cowboy I told you about.
654
00:39:41,325 --> 00:39:44,453
You want him to sing?
I'll get him to do it.
655
00:39:44,562 --> 00:39:47,531
I hope we do as well in the city
as we did in the small towns.
656
00:39:47,632 --> 00:39:49,930
City's Just like a small town,
only taller.
657
00:39:50,034 --> 00:39:51,934
Hey you-- sideburns.
658
00:39:52,036 --> 00:39:53,936
I got a chick down there
who wants to hear you sing.
659
00:39:54,038 --> 00:39:57,371
- I'm sorry, I can't-- That's right neighborly, pops.
660
00:39:57,442 --> 00:39:59,569
You tell the young lady
that Mr. Rivers will do
661
00:39:59,677 --> 00:40:02,077
four shows a day
right across the street
662
00:40:02,313 --> 00:40:04,941
starting tomorrow.
Prices don't change till 6:00.
663
00:40:05,049 --> 00:40:06,846
She don't want to wait.
664
00:40:06,951 --> 00:40:09,419
She wants to hear you sing

right now. Don't you honey?

665
00:40:09,487 --> 00:40:11,455
- Sure do.
- Come on.
666
00:40:11,522 --> 00:40:13,319
I'm sorry, folks, I-667
00:40:13,424 --> 00:40:15,915
Why don't you come around
the theater tomorrow afternoon?
668
00:40:16,027 --> 00:40:17,927
We'll be on the stage.
669
00:40:18,029 --> 00:40:20,054
You ain't gonna give me
any static, are you?
670
00:40:20,331 --> 00:40:22,299
Now I told my girl
I'd get you to sing.
671
00:40:22,366 --> 00:40:25,096
Man can't go back
on his word, can he, fella?
672
00:40:25,369 --> 00:40:27,997
Look, maybe you
didn't understand me, fella.
673
00:40:28,072 --> 00:40:30,472
But Mr. Rivers doesn't sing
in Juke Joints.
674
00:40:30,575 --> 00:40:33,840
Why don't you run on back
and drink your malted, huh?
675
00:40:33,945 --> 00:40:37,312
Say, what's the trouble-- these
show people starting something?
676
00:40:37,415 --> 00:40:40,748
There's no trouble, sir. Do you mind
if I sing a song for these folks?

677
00:40:40,818 --> 00:40:43,685
He don't mind.
Do you, Frank?
678
00:40:43,788 --> 00:40:47,622
No, no...
I don't mind.
679
00:40:47,692 --> 00:40:52,425
- Go ahead, sideburns. Sing.
- Crowd: Yeah, sing.
680
00:40:54,632 --> 00:40:56,691
Okay...
681
00:40:56,768 --> 00:40:58,736
I'll sing.
682
00:41:12,083 --> 00:41:13,983
( music starts )
683
00:41:23,327 --> 00:41:27,320
I got a woman
mean as she can be
684
00:41:29,634 --> 00:41:33,070
I got a woman
mean as she can be
685
00:41:35,072 --> 00:41:39,406
Sometimes I think
she's almost mean as me
686
00:41:40,978 --> 00:41:44,311
A black cat up
and died of fright
687
00:41:44,415 --> 00:41:46,883
'Cause she crossed
his path last night
688
00:41:46,984 --> 00:41:50,681
I got a woman
mean as she can be
689
00:41:52,790 --> 00:41:56,886
Sometimes I think

she's almost mean as me

690
00:41:58,930 --> 00:42:01,558
Kissed so hard
she bruised my lips
691
00:42:01,666 --> 00:42:04,635
Hurt so good
my heart Just flipped
692
00:42:04,702 --> 00:42:08,798
I got a woman
mean as she can be
693
00:42:10,308 --> 00:42:14,677
Sometimes I think
she's almost mean as me
694
00:42:17,782 --> 00:42:19,682
( crowd cheering )
695
00:42:36,500 --> 00:42:38,832
Strangest gal I ever had
696
00:42:38,903 --> 00:42:41,736
Never happy
unless she's mad
697
00:42:41,806 --> 00:42:45,765
I got a woman
mean as she can be
698
00:42:47,445 --> 00:42:51,643
Sometimes I think
she's almost mean as me
699
00:42:53,517 --> 00:42:55,542
Yeah
700
00:42:58,522 --> 00:43:00,786
Yeah
701
00:43:13,037 --> 00:43:15,562
She makes love
without a smile
702
00:43:15,673 --> 00:43:18,733

And ooh-- hot dog,

it drives me wild
703
00:43:18,843 --> 00:43:22,904
I got a woman
mean as she can be
704
00:43:24,015 --> 00:43:28,349
Sometimes I think
she's almost mean as me
705
00:43:29,687 --> 00:43:35,353
Sometimes I think
she's almost mean as me.
706
00:43:35,459 --> 00:43:37,427
( crowd cheering )
707
00:43:39,497 --> 00:43:41,397
( register ringing )
708
00:43:44,502 --> 00:43:48,029
- Well, you ain't bad, sideburns.
- And what do you do for a living?
709
00:43:48,105 --> 00:43:50,300
I'm with my old man
in auto accessories, why?
710
00:43:50,408 --> 00:43:52,603
I usually get paid for singing
as a rule.
711
00:43:52,710 --> 00:43:54,735
I figured you ought to do
whatever you do for me.
712
00:43:54,812 --> 00:43:56,837
How about stepping outside
and putting a new set
713
00:43:56,948 --> 00:43:59,416
of seat covers on my car, huh?
714
00:43:59,483 --> 00:44:01,348
Why sure, sideburns.
What color you want?

715
00:44:01,419 --> 00:44:03,387
I figure his color's yellow,
don't you?
716
00:44:04,455 --> 00:44:06,286
( screaming )
717
00:44:09,327 --> 00:44:10,954
Get out of here.
I'm gonna kill this guy.
718
00:44:14,832 --> 00:44:17,300
( crowd cheering )
719
00:44:32,750 --> 00:44:34,411
Get the police, quickly.
720
00:44:37,088 --> 00:44:39,556
( music plays )
721
00:45:14,425 --> 00:45:18,293
It's great.
It's simply great.
722
00:45:18,362 --> 00:45:20,626
Well, seeing is believing
all right.
723
00:45:20,698 --> 00:45:23,496
I can't figure people out.
When I read about that fight
724
00:45:23,601 --> 00:45:25,398
I thought we'd blown
the whole booking.
725
00:45:25,503 --> 00:45:26,663
Oh no, Deke was exonerated
726
00:45:26,771 --> 00:45:29,035
and the other kid was fined
for starting the fight.
727
00:45:29,273 --> 00:45:31,673
I couldn't have planned
a better break.

728
00:45:31,742 --> 00:45:34,074
Well, you've certainly
capitalized on it, Glenda.
729
00:45:34,345 --> 00:45:36,370
Oh, it was easy.
730
00:45:36,447 --> 00:45:38,711
The fight headlines brought
in the first packed house.
731
00:45:38,783 --> 00:45:41,684
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
732
00:45:41,786 --> 00:45:44,346
After that, Deke hung up
the S.R.O. signs
733
00:45:44,455 --> 00:45:47,686
- strictly on performance.
- I see what you mean.
734
00:45:57,535 --> 00:46:00,663
Stage manager:
Step back, step back.
735
00:46:00,771 --> 00:46:03,331
He's with me.
Mr. Warner's booking agent.
736
00:46:03,407 --> 00:46:09,277
He'll be out to sign your programs
and you'll all be very happy.
737
00:46:09,380 --> 00:46:11,814
Those kids, they're giving us
all fits back here.
738
00:46:11,916 --> 00:46:14,749
Youth, it's not being wasted
on the young.
739
00:46:14,852 --> 00:46:17,912
Listen, I'm expecting a reporter
from The Dallas Chronicle.
740

00:46:18,022 --> 00:46:19,819

They're here now.
741
00:46:19,924 --> 00:46:23,052
Why don't you go back?
Tex will be off soon.
742
00:46:23,327 --> 00:46:25,318
I'm Glenda Markle.
You're early.
743
00:46:25,429 --> 00:46:27,829
- I'm O'Shea, this is Ed Grew.
- How do you do?
744
00:46:27,932 --> 00:46:31,026
How do you do? We got shots
of the mouse pack outside.
745
00:46:31,302 --> 00:46:33,600
Aren't they lovely little
creatures?
746
00:46:33,704 --> 00:46:37,037
It's hard to believe some day
they'll all be grandmothers.
747
00:46:37,274 --> 00:46:39,572
Except the boys.
748
00:46:50,454 --> 00:46:53,082
Baby, let me be
749
00:46:53,324 --> 00:46:55,986
Your loving
teddy bear
750
00:46:56,060 --> 00:46:58,620
Put a chain
around my neck
751
00:46:58,729 --> 00:47:00,754
And lead me anywhere
752
00:47:00,831 --> 00:47:02,628
Oh let me be
753

00:47:02,733 --> 00:47:05,725

Your teddy bear
754
00:47:06,971 --> 00:47:09,633
I don't want to be
a tiger
755
00:47:09,740 --> 00:47:11,867
'Cause tigers
play too rough
756
00:47:11,976 --> 00:47:14,672
I don't want to be
a lion
757
00:47:14,745 --> 00:47:19,546
'Cause lions ain't the kind
you love enough
758
00:47:19,617 --> 00:47:22,279
I Just want to be
759
00:47:22,386 --> 00:47:25,685
Your teddy bear
760
00:47:25,789 --> 00:47:28,917
Put a chain
around my neck
761
00:47:28,993 --> 00:47:30,927
And lead me anywhere
762
00:47:30,995 --> 00:47:32,986
Oh let me be
763
00:47:33,264 --> 00:47:36,256
Your teddy bear
764
00:47:37,535 --> 00:47:39,901
Baby, let me be
765
00:47:40,004 --> 00:47:42,734
Around you every night
766
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:45,502
Run your fingers
through my hair

767
00:47:45,576 --> 00:47:47,567
And cuddle me
real tight
768
00:47:47,678 --> 00:47:49,805
Oh let me be
769
00:47:49,914 --> 00:47:52,508
Your teddy bear
770
00:47:53,951 --> 00:47:56,078
I don't want to be
a tiger
771
00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:59,016
'Cause tigers
play too rough
772
00:47:59,290 --> 00:48:01,622
I don't want to be
a lion
773
00:48:01,725 --> 00:48:06,424
'Cause lions ain't the kind
you love enough
774
00:48:06,530 --> 00:48:08,964
I Just want to be
775
00:48:09,233 --> 00:48:11,793
Your teddy bear
776
00:48:13,270 --> 00:48:15,568
Put a chain around my neck
777
00:48:15,673 --> 00:48:17,641
And lead me anywhere
778
00:48:17,708 --> 00:48:19,835
Oh let me be
779
00:48:19,910 --> 00:48:22,674
Your teddy bear
780
00:48:22,746 --> 00:48:25,613

Oh let me be
781
00:48:25,716 --> 00:48:29,379
Your teddy bear
782
00:48:29,453 --> 00:48:33,913
I Just want to be
your teddy bear.
783
00:48:33,991 --> 00:48:36,482
( crowd cheering )
784
00:48:38,696 --> 00:48:40,561
- Nice going, son.
- Hi, Mr. Meade.
785
00:48:40,664 --> 00:48:42,529
Matilda's done something
you've never done.
786
00:48:42,633 --> 00:48:44,624
- She laid an egg.
- Well, how about that?
787
00:48:44,735 --> 00:48:47,033
Wait till we tell Skeeter
he's gonna be a grandpa.
788
00:48:58,716 --> 00:49:00,513
Hi.
789
00:49:00,584 --> 00:49:02,609
- Remember me?
- How'd you get in here?
790
00:49:02,720 --> 00:49:04,950
I've been trying to make it
for four days now.
791
00:49:05,222 --> 00:49:07,452
Ever since the night you had
that fight with Wayne.
792
00:49:07,558 --> 00:49:09,458
- Remember, my boy friend?
- Look, miss-793

00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:13,587

Daisy. I'm Daisy Bricker.
You remember Wayne, my ex?
794
00:49:13,697 --> 00:49:17,394
After what you did to him,
ooh, what you've been doing to me.
795
00:49:17,501 --> 00:49:19,401
- Three or four shows a day.
- I'm sorry.
796
00:49:19,503 --> 00:49:21,596
- For four days.
- I have to ask you to leave.
797
00:49:21,672 --> 00:49:24,004
My friends dared me
to sneak in here and wait.
798
00:49:24,241 --> 00:49:25,469
Oh...?
799
00:49:25,542 --> 00:49:28,568
They said I wouldn't have
the nerve to steal a kiss.
800
00:49:28,679 --> 00:49:33,378
But I'm not afraid of anything.
And that's what I like about you.
801
00:49:33,484 --> 00:49:38,285
You're not afraid
of anything either. I can tell.
802
00:49:38,389 --> 00:49:40,721
I'm gonna have to ask you
to get out, Daisy.
803
00:49:40,791 --> 00:49:43,760
You are afraid.
804
00:49:43,827 --> 00:49:49,424
You don't sing scared,
but you are.
805
00:49:49,500 --> 00:49:51,627
You're a phony.

806
00:49:51,702 --> 00:49:53,761
When you first met the boy,
did you-807
00:49:53,871 --> 00:49:56,806
Before you ask any more questions,
let's go back and meet Deke.
808
00:49:56,907 --> 00:49:58,499
Fine.
809
00:50:07,518 --> 00:50:09,008
Hey!
810
00:50:09,286 --> 00:50:11,652
Who are you and what are you
doing here? Get out.
811
00:50:11,755 --> 00:50:15,452
What's the matter, lady?
You want to keep him for yourself?
812
00:50:15,526 --> 00:50:17,016
Get out.
813
00:50:19,863 --> 00:50:22,388
I would like to have
one of those pictures.
814
00:50:22,499 --> 00:50:25,593
And you're not a phony.
815
00:50:25,703 --> 00:50:27,762
Her friends dared her
to sneak in here.
816
00:50:27,871 --> 00:50:31,068
Miss Markle was Just telling us
how terrific you are.
817
00:50:31,308 --> 00:50:33,640
Will you wait outside
a minute, boys?
818
00:50:33,744 --> 00:50:36,304
Sure. I think we got

enough for a story.

819
00:50:39,049 --> 00:50:43,543
I didn't know Daisy was in here.
Her friends dared her to sneak in.
820
00:50:46,357 --> 00:50:48,120
That's how you're selling me,
isn't it?
821
00:50:48,359 --> 00:50:50,452
A monkey in the zoo,
ain't that what you want?
822
00:50:50,561 --> 00:50:54,395
If that's what I want, okay.
But if it's what you want-823
00:50:54,465 --> 00:50:56,865
Oh, forget it.
824
00:50:56,967 --> 00:51:00,300
This kind of thing happens
to performers all the time.
825
00:51:00,371 --> 00:51:03,704
I came by to tell to you
how great you were.
826
00:51:06,643 --> 00:51:10,272
But I guess I didn't
realize it myself... until now.
827
00:51:14,785 --> 00:51:15,046
Hey, a one-man concert.
It's a good idea, Carl.
828
00:51:19,056 --> 00:51:22,548
We'll sell out the Joint.
Freegate Civic Hall-829
00:51:22,659 --> 00:51:25,526
a tremendous place-six, seven miles outside Dallas.
830
00:51:25,629 --> 00:51:29,326
And be sure to have a cop
on his dressing room door.

831
00:51:29,433 --> 00:51:31,025
Okay-832
00:51:31,301 --> 00:51:33,895
Carl, fly to Dallas and sew it up.
We close here tomorrow.
833
00:51:34,004 --> 00:51:37,371
I'm going with you. The boys
can lay off four or five days,
834
00:51:37,441 --> 00:51:39,375
give me a chance to work.
This is important stuff-835
00:51:39,443 --> 00:51:42,776
- it's got to be handled that way.
- Anything in mind?
836
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,713
I've been brewing a thunderclap
for a week now.
837
00:51:45,816 --> 00:51:48,478
It'll take money, a lot of it.
But it'll be worth it.
838
00:51:48,585 --> 00:51:51,315
If it's worth it, we'll get it.
What's the idea?
839
00:51:51,422 --> 00:51:52,650
Okay...
840
00:51:52,723 --> 00:51:56,591
I've got a rich oil widow
dreamed up in Oklahoma City.
841
00:51:56,693 --> 00:51:59,526
She's always wanted a son
like Deke Rivers,
842
00:51:59,596 --> 00:52:01,894
someone to take care of,
buy him things.
843

00:52:01,999 --> 00:52:05,958

She knows he flips for cars,
so she gives him one.
844
00:52:06,036 --> 00:52:09,904
- A car?
- A custom built white convertible
845
00:52:10,007 --> 00:52:12,771
with red leather upholstery
to match his red and white getup.
846
00:52:12,876 --> 00:52:15,674
( whistles )
In spades.
847
00:52:15,746 --> 00:52:19,011
Honey, this is no idea,
it's a spectacular.
848
00:52:19,283 --> 00:52:23,379
- Where do we get dough for that?
- We borrow on your life insurance.
849
00:52:23,487 --> 00:52:25,455
He did hang on to that.
850
00:52:25,556 --> 00:52:28,354
Tex: She made me pay it up
1 0 years in advance.
851
00:52:28,459 --> 00:52:32,088
It's the only thing I've
hung on to-- and my ulcer scars.
852
00:52:32,362 --> 00:52:35,854
Deke's better than insurance.
That boy's an annuity.
853
00:52:35,966 --> 00:52:40,903
It's a gamble.
A $6-8,000 dice roll.
854
00:52:40,971 --> 00:52:41,903
Oh no, it isn't.
855
00:52:42,005 --> 00:52:44,565
This is Just the kind of thing

that will make front-page publicity.

856
00:52:44,641 --> 00:52:47,041
And in a city as big
as Dallas,
857
00:52:47,311 --> 00:52:49,871
they've got a front page
as big as your feature,
858
00:52:49,947 --> 00:52:54,111
Okay, you sold me.
I'll get in touch
with Joe...
859
00:52:54,351 --> 00:52:56,080
the insurance agent.
860
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,618
Are you sure you can get
the car ready in time?
861
00:52:58,689 --> 00:53:00,714
We're in Texas, Tex.
This is the country
862
00:53:00,791 --> 00:53:03,589
they dreamed up those gorgeous
go-devils for.
863
00:53:03,660 --> 00:53:05,594
I'll see you
at the hotel, Carl.
864
00:53:05,662 --> 00:53:07,653
We'll take the 7:1 0.
865
00:53:07,731 --> 00:53:10,791
See you, Tex, at the other end
of the rainbow.
866
00:53:14,738 --> 00:53:19,869
Tex, is... well,
there's one more thing.
867
00:53:19,943 --> 00:53:23,344
I don't think we're gonna
need the trio behind Deke.

868
00:53:23,447 --> 00:53:26,416
Better drop them-and Susan.
869
00:53:26,483 --> 00:53:29,077
Carl,
I can't let them go.
870
00:53:29,353 --> 00:53:31,753
They're good kids,
all of them.
871
00:53:31,855 --> 00:53:34,551
Deke's a good kid, too,
and he's selling the tickets.
872
00:53:34,658 --> 00:53:38,287
Well, I can't fire Susie.
873
00:53:38,395 --> 00:53:40,488
All right, I'll fire her.
874
00:53:40,564 --> 00:53:44,364
I've been practicing for years
to be a heavy.
875
00:53:44,434 --> 00:53:47,460
I'm an agent.
876
00:53:48,906 --> 00:53:51,875
Sit. I Just want
to say goodbye.
877
00:53:51,942 --> 00:53:53,739
Don't get scared.
878
00:53:53,810 --> 00:53:55,801
I'm only going to Dallas
for a couple of days.
879
00:53:55,913 --> 00:53:58,381
I thought it was that quick
goodbye you warned me about.
880
00:53:58,482 --> 00:54:00,848
Not yet. We're setting up

something truly big.

881
00:54:00,918 --> 00:54:03,409
You Just watch yourself
while I'm away.
882
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:05,750
You'll have a few days off
so take it easy.
883
00:54:05,856 --> 00:54:08,984
- I'll keep an eye on him.
- He doesn't need a governess.
884
00:54:09,259 --> 00:54:11,659
He can't take care of himself.
Can't you, Deke?
885
00:54:11,728 --> 00:54:14,253
- I'm learning fast.
- See you in a couple of days.
886
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:19,000
That Daisy character
must have known something.
887
00:54:19,269 --> 00:54:22,898
I got your message,
Miss Glenda. I'll take care.
888
00:54:26,743 --> 00:54:30,270
- ( girls squealing )
- Now, girls, come on!
889
00:54:30,380 --> 00:54:32,348
- When's Deke coming out, Mack?
- Deke is gone.
890
00:54:32,449 --> 00:54:34,679
Yeah! Real gone.
When's he coming out?
891
00:54:34,785 --> 00:54:36,776
He went out front
about half an hour ago.
892
00:54:36,887 --> 00:54:39,378
Come on!

893
00:54:39,489 --> 00:54:41,616
All right, boys,
you can come out.
894
00:54:41,725 --> 00:54:45,388
- What a week we had.
- Three-day vacation.
895
00:54:45,495 --> 00:54:47,463
I kind of hate to leave.
896
00:54:47,531 --> 00:54:50,398
It's the whole week we've
spent in a real theater.
897
00:54:50,500 --> 00:54:52,297
- Yeah.
- Thanks to you.
898
00:54:52,402 --> 00:54:54,427
What are you going to do
over the lay-off?
899
00:54:54,538 --> 00:54:56,506
See my folks.
I haven't been home in so long.
900
00:54:56,573 --> 00:54:59,599
- Your dad's a farmer?
- One of the best.
901
00:55:02,813 --> 00:55:04,713
You're not leaving tonight,
I hope?
902
00:55:04,815 --> 00:55:07,010
Not till morning.
Why?
903
00:55:07,250 --> 00:55:09,047
Deke, I'd like to talk,
maybe have a bite together.
904
00:55:09,286 --> 00:55:10,913
- It's kind of important.
- Sure.

905
00:55:10,988 --> 00:55:13,286
I'll see you in the morning
before I leave.
906
00:55:13,390 --> 00:55:15,654
See you at the hotel, fellas.
Take it easy, Skeeter.
907
00:55:15,759 --> 00:55:18,319
Girl: There he is!
Oh my gosh!
908
00:55:18,395 --> 00:55:20,693
Girl #2:
Can I get your autograph?
909
00:55:20,797 --> 00:55:23,561
Tex: Come on, girls.
Take it easy.
910
00:55:26,703 --> 00:55:29,433
What does it say?
911
00:55:34,011 --> 00:55:36,571
A one-man concert?
912
00:55:36,647 --> 00:55:38,615
I'm kind of sorry
you told me about it.
913
00:55:38,715 --> 00:55:40,910
I won't sleep a wink.
I'm that scared.
914
00:55:40,984 --> 00:55:44,351
Scared? Relax.
Learn to live with success.
915
00:55:44,454 --> 00:55:46,354
Lady Luck is
a lovely roommate.
916
00:55:46,456 --> 00:55:48,481
Yeah, but it all seems
to be happening so fast.
917
00:55:48,592 --> 00:55:50,992

It's a funny business.

When it starts coming your way,
918
00:55:51,094 --> 00:55:54,086
it comes-- voom-theaters, clubs, concerts,
919
00:55:54,364 --> 00:55:56,832
records, TV.
Maybe even movies.
920
00:55:56,900 --> 00:56:00,631
I sure hope so-- at least,
I think I hope so.
921
00:56:00,737 --> 00:56:04,298
Deke... got some doubts,
haven't you?
922
00:56:04,374 --> 00:56:07,002
Something you'd like to kick
around with somebody?
923
00:56:07,244 --> 00:56:11,578
- Well, Miss Glenda has been-- I know. Glenda's a fine person,
924
00:56:11,682 --> 00:56:15,948
but there's some things a man
has to talk over with another man.
925
00:56:16,053 --> 00:56:18,044
You know, I like you,
Deke.
926
00:56:18,321 --> 00:56:20,721
You're not like these punks
you see around-927
00:56:20,824 --> 00:56:23,520
wise guys full
of their own future,
928
00:56:23,627 --> 00:56:27,495
ready to spit in the first eye
that doesn't light up to them.
929
00:56:27,597 --> 00:56:31,556

You're a boy any man would

be proud to have as a son.
930
00:56:31,668 --> 00:56:35,468
More than that,
we're real pals-- partners.
931
00:56:35,539 --> 00:56:38,633
- Somebody to go places with.
- Thank you.
932
00:56:38,742 --> 00:56:40,573
It gets rugged in a rattle
like ours,
933
00:56:40,677 --> 00:56:43,339
with everybody dying
to take a crack at you.
934
00:56:43,413 --> 00:56:46,280
You know, it's easy
to get to the top,
935
00:56:46,383 --> 00:56:48,283
but staying there-- ooh!
936
00:56:48,385 --> 00:56:50,876
You're gonna need
plenty of advice-- plenty of help.
937
00:56:50,987 --> 00:56:53,785
Kinda figured that's what
I've been getting.
938
00:56:53,890 --> 00:56:55,824
From Glenda?
939
00:56:55,892 --> 00:56:58,656
She said about the same thing
you're saying.
940
00:56:58,762 --> 00:57:02,892
That's why we made an agreement
with each other-- weeks ago.
941
00:57:04,634 --> 00:57:06,864
Oh... that was smart.

942
00:57:06,970 --> 00:57:09,268
I think so.
943
00:57:09,339 --> 00:57:11,899
You know, Tex,
I signed a paper
944
00:57:12,008 --> 00:57:14,636
that she gets half
of everything I make.
945
00:57:14,711 --> 00:57:16,906
And she hasn't taken
a dime from me yet.
946
00:57:18,682 --> 00:57:23,710
Yeah, Glenda's
a mighty fine person.
947
00:57:23,820 --> 00:57:26,254
Waitress!
948
00:57:27,824 --> 00:57:30,816
Brink me an empty glass,
will you, honey?
949
00:57:30,927 --> 00:57:33,452
Are you gonna drink that
straight or on the rocks?
950
00:57:33,530 --> 00:57:36,624
Straight. I've got the rocks
in my head.
951
00:57:43,740 --> 00:57:45,640
( knocking )
952
00:57:46,676 --> 00:57:49,440
Good morning, boys. Don't you want
to see the little lady off?
953
00:57:49,546 --> 00:57:51,980
- Come in. Have some coffee.
- We'll have to hurry.
954
00:57:52,082 --> 00:57:53,913
My bus leaves

in 20 minutes,
955
00:57:54,017 --> 00:57:55,382
and there's only one
to Farmingdale today.
956
00:57:55,452 --> 00:57:58,421
If you miss it,
Deke will drive you home.
957
00:57:58,488 --> 00:58:00,012
- Sure.
- 200 miles?
958
00:58:00,223 --> 00:58:01,850
I'm not doing anything
for three days.
959
00:58:01,925 --> 00:58:06,658
- What will you and Skeeter do?
- See The Ten Commandments twice?
960
00:58:06,763 --> 00:58:09,823
Why don't you drive
her home? Seriously.
961
00:58:09,933 --> 00:58:11,833
Saves Susie her bus fare.
962
00:58:11,935 --> 00:58:14,335
Do you good to see
some folks, see a farm.
963
00:58:14,437 --> 00:58:16,462
- Farm, huh?
- You could stay a couple of days.
964
00:58:16,540 --> 00:58:18,303
My folks would love
to have you.
965
00:58:18,375 --> 00:58:22,038
- What do you think, Skeet?
- I'm not your governess.
966
00:58:29,753 --> 00:58:30,913
Susie:
There it is.

967
00:58:31,021 --> 00:58:33,489
Deke:
Looks pretty from here.
968
00:58:33,590 --> 00:58:35,751
I'm glad Tex
had this idea.
969
00:58:35,859 --> 00:58:37,759
So am I.
970
00:58:38,829 --> 00:58:41,320
Follow the road
around the hill.
971
00:58:49,005 --> 00:58:51,872
Whose idea was it to send him
to Farmingdale?
972
00:58:51,975 --> 00:58:55,376
It was my idea. Up there
they're not going
973
00:58:55,445 --> 00:58:57,640
to be taking pictures
of him like that.
974
00:58:59,983 --> 00:59:01,780
That's good publicity.
975
00:59:01,885 --> 00:59:03,716
Tex:
I don't think so.
976
00:59:03,787 --> 00:59:07,951
Where did you pick up
that moral tone?
977
00:59:08,225 --> 00:59:10,557
When did you start worrying
about the kid's publicity?
978
00:59:10,627 --> 00:59:12,857
I like him, I don't want
to see you hurt him.
979

00:59:12,963 --> 00:59:15,864

I bring him back from Susan's
in that red and white custom Job-980
00:59:15,966 --> 00:59:18,491
- he'll forget all about this.
- I doubt it.
981
00:59:18,602 --> 00:59:20,467
Can't fight sex
with horsepower.
982
00:59:20,537 --> 00:59:21,834
Who's fighting sex?
983
00:59:21,938 --> 00:59:24,031
It's a healthy American
commodity.
984
00:59:24,307 --> 00:59:25,899
It sells Coke, cream,
steam engines,
985
00:59:26,009 --> 00:59:28,239
shampoo, real estate
and toothpaste.
986
00:59:28,345 --> 00:59:30,040
It can sell singers, too.
987
00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:31,872
And press agents.
988
00:59:34,584 --> 00:59:36,779
I beg your pardon.
989
00:59:36,887 --> 00:59:40,948
Now who's developed
a high moral tone?
990
00:59:41,057 --> 00:59:43,685
I'll tell you why I sent
Deke with Susan,
991
00:59:43,793 --> 00:59:45,886
that boy needs to be
with a sweet kid

992
00:59:45,996 --> 00:59:47,793
- that's nuts about him.
- What are you?
993
00:59:47,898 --> 00:59:50,526
- A marriage broker?
- A realist, honey.
994
00:59:50,634 --> 00:59:53,432
Deke's nuts about you.
Just mentioning your name
995
00:59:53,536 --> 00:59:57,734
- and his eyes pop like bubble gum.
- Well...
996
00:59:57,841 --> 00:59:59,809
Sir Galahad.
997
00:59:59,910 --> 01:00:02,708
The fair Susan has been
elected to save him
998
01:00:02,779 --> 01:00:04,007
from the wicked witch.
999
01:00:04,281 --> 01:00:06,374
Go ahead, be flip.
Avoid the issue.
1000
01:00:06,449 --> 01:00:08,781
I won't avoid it.
You brought it up.
1001
01:00:08,852 --> 01:00:12,015
Let's get to the real point,
Mr. Galahad.
1002
01:00:12,289 --> 01:00:14,814
When did you find out
I signed the kid?
1003
01:00:14,925 --> 01:00:17,359
That hurts.
1004
01:00:17,460 --> 01:00:18,859
That really hurts.

1005
01:00:18,962 --> 01:00:22,955
When you stop bleeding,
call for the car.
1006
01:00:23,033 --> 01:00:25,558
I'm gonna get Deke
back here.
1007
01:00:25,669 --> 01:00:27,500
Just for the record...
1008
01:00:27,570 --> 01:00:30,038
it's not the kid I want,
it's you.
1009
01:00:30,106 --> 01:00:32,370
My head maybe full
of tapioca,
1010
01:00:32,442 --> 01:00:33,909
but I'm still
in love with you.
1011
01:00:34,010 --> 01:00:35,944
I'll buy half
of that.
1012
01:00:39,716 --> 01:00:42,446
Walter.
1013
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:45,779
I'll get the car...
1014
01:00:45,889 --> 01:00:47,857
first thing in the morning.
1015
01:00:48,959 --> 01:00:51,120
Oh?
1016
01:00:51,394 --> 01:00:55,353
- You want to buy the other half?
- Talk me into it.
1017
01:01:02,806 --> 01:01:04,569
Get out of here,
Joseph.

1018
01:01:10,947 --> 01:01:12,539
Deke: Jab with the left,
that's it.
1019
01:01:12,615 --> 01:01:14,742
- More coffee, everyone?
- Hey, take it easy.
1020
01:01:14,851 --> 01:01:16,876
- Deke?
- No thanks.
1021
01:01:16,953 --> 01:01:19,581
- Where's Susan?
- She's by the corral.
1022
01:01:19,656 --> 01:01:21,715
Fetch her back, Deke.
1023
01:01:36,740 --> 01:01:38,901
- Deke: Hey, Susie!
- Hi!
1024
01:01:41,378 --> 01:01:43,039
Hi.
1025
01:01:43,113 --> 01:01:45,741
Did daddy teach you about
contour plowing?
1026
01:01:45,849 --> 01:01:47,840
Yeah. Sure knows a lot
about farming.
1027
01:01:47,951 --> 01:01:49,885
That's all he's done
all of his life.
1028
01:01:49,986 --> 01:01:52,454
I guess if I had been a boy,
that's what I would be doing
1029
01:01:52,522 --> 01:01:54,990
instead of gallivanting
about the country
1030

01:01:55,091 --> 01:01:58,026

- with a hillbilly band.
- I'm glad you're not a boy.
1031
01:01:58,128 --> 01:02:00,323
You think there are
enough farmers?
1032
01:02:00,430 --> 01:02:02,398
No, not enough girls.
1033
01:02:02,499 --> 01:02:04,296
Come on, Deke.
1034
01:02:04,367 --> 01:02:06,801
Why, you've got more girls
than you can handle.
1035
01:02:06,903 --> 01:02:09,872
If I didn't get out of
the theater once in a while
1036
01:02:09,939 --> 01:02:13,841
I'd think the population of
America was female and under 20.
1037
01:02:13,910 --> 01:02:15,935
Ah...
1038
01:02:16,046 --> 01:02:18,037
They're customers.
1039
01:02:18,314 --> 01:02:19,941
Glenda isn't a customer.
1040
01:02:20,050 --> 01:02:23,019
Glenda's...
1041
01:02:23,286 --> 01:02:25,777
well, Glenda.
1042
01:02:25,889 --> 01:02:27,982
Think a lot of her,
don't you?
1043
01:02:28,091 --> 01:02:30,286
Don't you?

1044
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,794
Tex and the band have
started going places
1045
01:02:32,862 --> 01:02:34,523
since she took over
1046
01:02:34,631 --> 01:02:36,292
and brought you
into the deal.
1047
01:02:36,366 --> 01:02:38,061
You'll make it
for all of them.
1048
01:02:38,334 --> 01:02:41,497
- Ah!
- Like the concert in Freegate.
1049
01:02:41,571 --> 01:02:44,506
Deke Rivers
in a one-man concert.
1050
01:02:44,607 --> 01:02:46,404
Not exactly.
1051
01:02:46,476 --> 01:02:49,070
There's Tex, the guys and you.
We're all doing it.
1052
01:02:49,345 --> 01:02:52,576
I'm not going. They let me
and the trio go.
1053
01:02:52,649 --> 01:02:54,378
When they tell you that?
1054
01:02:54,484 --> 01:02:56,611
Before we closed
in Amarillo.
1055
01:02:56,719 --> 01:02:59,552
I thought you knew.
1056
01:02:59,656 --> 01:03:03,456
I thought that's why you wanted

to drive me home.
1057
01:03:03,526 --> 01:03:05,687
They never told me
anything.
1058
01:03:05,795 --> 01:03:06,955
Look...
1059
01:03:07,063 --> 01:03:09,293
Susan...
1060
01:03:09,399 --> 01:03:11,367
I drove you home
because
1061
01:03:11,468 --> 01:03:13,698
well, I wanted
to be with you.
1062
01:03:13,803 --> 01:03:16,033
Not only here,
but I want you with us
1063
01:03:16,272 --> 01:03:18,900
- on the road wherever we go.
- They don't need me.
1064
01:03:19,008 --> 01:03:21,806
And you don't need me.
You're going to the top,
1065
01:03:21,911 --> 01:03:23,538
and you're going alone.
1066
01:03:26,282 --> 01:03:28,876
I've been alone
all my life.
1067
01:03:28,952 --> 01:03:31,614
I need somebody.
1068
01:03:35,992 --> 01:03:37,619
Hey!
1069
01:03:37,727 --> 01:03:40,992
When will we get that song

Deke promised us?

1070
01:03:49,873 --> 01:03:54,742
I will spend
my whole life through
1071
01:03:56,446 --> 01:04:01,850
Loving you,
Just loving you
1072
01:04:01,918 --> 01:04:04,785
Winter, summer
1073
01:04:04,888 --> 01:04:07,356
Springtime, too
1074
01:04:07,457 --> 01:04:10,790
Loving you
1075
01:04:10,860 --> 01:04:13,988
Loving you
1076
01:04:14,264 --> 01:04:18,997
Makes no difference
where I go
1077
01:04:19,269 --> 01:04:23,535
Or what I do
1078
01:04:25,875 --> 01:04:31,313
You know
that I'll always be
1079
01:04:31,414 --> 01:04:34,941
Loving you
1080
01:04:35,051 --> 01:04:37,952
Just you and...
1081
01:04:38,054 --> 01:04:43,651
If I'm seen
with someone new
1082
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:48,288
Don't be blue,
don't you be blue

1083
01:04:49,766 --> 01:04:52,599
I'll be faithful
1084
01:04:52,702 --> 01:04:55,398
I'll be true
1085
01:04:56,506 --> 01:04:59,031
Always true
1086
01:04:59,108 --> 01:05:02,271
True to you
1087
01:05:02,378 --> 01:05:06,678
There is only one
for me
1088
01:05:06,749 --> 01:05:11,618
And you know who
1089
01:05:13,856 --> 01:05:19,260
You know that
I'll always be
1090
01:05:19,329 --> 01:05:24,289
Loving
1091
01:05:24,367 --> 01:05:26,858
You.
1092
01:05:30,506 --> 01:05:33,031
That was Just lovely,
son.
1093
01:05:33,309 --> 01:05:34,367
Thank you.
1094
01:05:34,444 --> 01:05:36,776
I've never heard you sing
that way before.
1095
01:05:36,879 --> 01:05:40,076
I never felt this way before.
1096
01:05:59,936 --> 01:06:03,303
Wow! The flying saucers
have landed at last!

1097
01:06:03,373 --> 01:06:05,273
Hi!
1098
01:06:07,944 --> 01:06:09,878
- Hi.
- Hi.
1099
01:06:10,947 --> 01:06:13,745
Hello.
Hi, Susan.
1100
01:06:13,850 --> 01:06:15,647
- Hi.
- Hi, Deke.
1101
01:06:15,752 --> 01:06:18,448
- Where did this come from?
- Off the drawing board,
1102
01:06:18,554 --> 01:06:20,454
and into your life.
It's all yours.
1103
01:06:20,556 --> 01:06:22,456
Mine?!
1104
01:06:22,558 --> 01:06:24,458
I hope you don't mind
my barging in.
1105
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:27,586
- I had to show Deke his present.
- We're glad to have you.
1106
01:06:27,664 --> 01:06:29,461
Ma, Pa, Miss Margo.
1107
01:06:29,532 --> 01:06:31,625
- How do you do?
- Nice to meet you.
1108
01:06:31,701 --> 01:06:33,965
- Sis and Buzzy.
- Hi, Sis and Buzzy.
1109
01:06:34,037 --> 01:06:36,801

You must be kidding,

Miss Glenda.
1110
01:06:36,873 --> 01:06:38,864
Why?
I don't understand.
1111
01:06:38,941 --> 01:06:40,499
Why?
1112
01:06:40,576 --> 01:06:43,409
Isn't it crazy?
When we were in Amarillo
1113
01:06:43,479 --> 01:06:45,743
the widow of some oil man-1114
01:06:45,815 --> 01:06:47,476
she wouldn't even give us
her name,
1115
01:06:47,583 --> 01:06:49,448
said that you gave her
such pleasure,
1116
01:06:49,519 --> 01:06:52,716
and sang like the son
she and her husband wanted-1117
01:06:52,822 --> 01:06:54,483
she gave you the car.
1118
01:06:54,590 --> 01:06:55,614
Here.
1119
01:06:55,725 --> 01:06:57,556
She wrote you this note.
1120
01:06:57,660 --> 01:06:59,924
I never heard
of such a thing.
1121
01:07:00,029 --> 01:07:02,463
Either did anybody else,
but they will.
1122
01:07:02,532 --> 01:07:05,831

We better get started for Dallas

and get ready for Freegate.
1123
01:07:05,935 --> 01:07:09,530
- You Just got here.
- Surely not tonight?
1124
01:07:09,639 --> 01:07:12,472
I'm afraid we have to leave
right away, Mrs. Jessup.
1125
01:07:12,542 --> 01:07:14,009
Better get your things,
Deke.
1126
01:07:19,415 --> 01:07:22,350
- Wanna give me a hand?
- Sure.
1127
01:07:37,266 --> 01:07:39,496
Kind of tough
saying goodbye.
1128
01:07:39,602 --> 01:07:40,967
Never had much practice.
1129
01:07:41,037 --> 01:07:43,904
I'm Just as happy to stay
home for a while.
1130
01:07:44,006 --> 01:07:46,406
Yeah?
1131
01:07:48,578 --> 01:07:51,012
I got something
for you.
1132
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,612
A key to the ride.
Just kind of...
1133
01:07:53,683 --> 01:07:55,981
drive it once in a while,
keep the battery built up.
1134
01:07:56,085 --> 01:07:57,416
Sure.

1135
01:07:57,520 --> 01:07:59,954
It's the first home
the old car's ever had.
1136
01:08:00,056 --> 01:08:02,456
Sure makes it tougher
to leave.
1137
01:08:02,558 --> 01:08:05,288
As long as you were
coming along-1138
01:08:05,395 --> 01:08:07,625
you know what I mean.
1139
01:08:07,730 --> 01:08:10,392
I'll be here.
I'll always be here.
1140
01:08:10,466 --> 01:08:12,627
Oh yeah?
1141
01:08:12,702 --> 01:08:13,999
See you.
1142
01:08:26,416 --> 01:08:29,351
You haven't said a thing
in two hours.
1143
01:08:29,419 --> 01:08:31,580
What are you thinking about?
1144
01:08:31,687 --> 01:08:33,382
Well...
1145
01:08:33,456 --> 01:08:36,357
- it's funny.
- What's funny?
1146
01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:42,988
How can a person
who's got no home be homesick?
1147
01:08:43,266 --> 01:08:45,700
Sometimes, Deke...
1148

01:08:45,802 --> 01:08:48,828

sometimes it's better
not to have a home...
1149
01:08:48,905 --> 01:08:52,864
than to have the kind
that I had.
1150
01:08:56,412 --> 01:09:00,314
Sometimes, Deke,
it's better to have had nothing.
1151
01:09:00,416 --> 01:09:04,375
You never had nothing.
You don't know what it's like.
1152
01:09:04,454 --> 01:09:06,752
What were your parents like?
1153
01:09:09,258 --> 01:09:11,749
I don't know, ma'am.
1154
01:09:11,861 --> 01:09:13,988
I Just remember somebody
1155
01:09:14,263 --> 01:09:16,959
soft and warm holding me
a long time ago.
1156
01:09:18,668 --> 01:09:21,865
And the next thing I remember
is that crack in the ceiling
1157
01:09:21,971 --> 01:09:24,769
above my cot at the home,
1158
01:09:24,874 --> 01:09:27,570
Jagged like a cut
of lightning
1159
01:09:27,677 --> 01:09:30,305
in a summer electric storm.
1160
01:09:30,379 --> 01:09:33,314
Even after the lights were out
I could still see it.
1161

01:09:33,416 --> 01:09:35,714

Sometimes I'd lay there crying
1162
01:09:35,785 --> 01:09:38,345
and then Miss Whipshaw
would come in
1163
01:09:38,454 --> 01:09:40,888
and say,
Be still, Tompkins.
1164
01:09:40,957 --> 01:09:42,584
Tompkins?
1165
01:09:44,494 --> 01:09:46,860
Want to know
who Deke Rivers really is?
1166
01:09:46,963 --> 01:09:48,590
You want to see?
1167
01:09:48,664 --> 01:09:52,293
Let's go back about 40 miles
to Ellen City.
1168
01:10:36,445 --> 01:10:38,538
Would you turn on
your bright lights, please?
1169
01:11:27,029 --> 01:11:32,990
He was alone but for
his friends who miss him.
1170
01:11:35,705 --> 01:11:38,572
I don't know any more about him
than I do me.
1171
01:11:40,409 --> 01:11:42,969
Except he didn't have
anybody either...
1172
01:11:43,079 --> 01:11:44,876
except friends.
1173
01:11:49,652 --> 01:11:53,486
1 1 years ago,
the night the home burned

1174
01:11:53,556 --> 01:11:58,357
and everybody was milling
around and yelling,
1175
01:11:58,427 --> 01:12:00,258
I ran away.
1176
01:12:00,329 --> 01:12:02,593
I ran all night
1177
01:12:02,665 --> 01:12:05,361
and the next morning
I found myself in here.
1178
01:12:06,969 --> 01:12:08,994
I was all alone.
1179
01:12:10,373 --> 01:12:12,671
And the one thing
I needed was friends.
1180
01:12:13,909 --> 01:12:17,538
I knew I never wanted
to go back to that home.
1181
01:12:17,647 --> 01:12:20,980
So I buried Jimmy Tompkins
and took on Deke's name.
1182
01:12:21,083 --> 01:12:24,348
And I figured on taking on
his friends, too.
1183
01:12:27,657 --> 01:12:30,820
And ever since,
I've been running.
1184
01:12:30,926 --> 01:12:34,327
Running and stumbling
and crawling,
1185
01:12:34,397 --> 01:12:36,331
looking for a friend...
1186
01:12:37,867 --> 01:12:39,994
trying to deserve
this man's name.

1187
01:12:41,937 --> 01:12:43,700
Deke.
1188
01:12:43,806 --> 01:12:46,331
It's nothing to cry about.
1189
01:12:46,442 --> 01:12:50,105
I Just brought you here
so you'd know.
1190
01:12:50,379 --> 01:12:54,975
I finally feel
that I've found friends.
1191
01:12:56,519 --> 01:13:00,250
I'm liable to deserve
the name Deke Rivers.
1192
01:13:01,924 --> 01:13:03,357
Deke, I...
1193
01:13:07,997 --> 01:13:10,022
Let's go.
1194
01:13:26,315 --> 01:13:29,614
- Thank you...
- You wanted me?
1195
01:13:29,685 --> 01:13:32,552
Yes.
Deke Rivers.
1196
01:13:32,655 --> 01:13:34,953
I understand.
Well, we'll-1197
01:13:35,024 --> 01:13:38,460
thank you, ma'am,
for calling.
1198
01:13:38,527 --> 01:13:41,360
That's the fifth call
I've had from Freegate.
1199
01:13:41,464 --> 01:13:43,694
Your piece on Deke Rivers

has started something.

1200
01:13:43,766 --> 01:13:45,028
You'd better get
down there.
1201
01:13:45,101 --> 01:13:47,092
Sounds like the irate ladies
of the town
1202
01:13:47,369 --> 01:13:51,362
- are stirring up a story.
- I'll get right on it.
1203
01:13:54,977 --> 01:13:57,468
Mrs. Gunderson, why don't you
act as spokesman-1204
01:13:57,580 --> 01:13:59,548
I've already been
to the press,
1205
01:13:59,648 --> 01:14:01,309
and now I'm telling you,
Mr. Mayor,
1206
01:14:01,417 --> 01:14:03,749
we mothers here in Freegate
refuse to allow
1207
01:14:03,853 --> 01:14:06,378
our daughters to be
corrupted by this-1208
01:14:06,455 --> 01:14:08,719
Ladies, please.
1209
01:14:08,791 --> 01:14:11,760
Ladies! Ladies!
Please!
1210
01:14:11,827 --> 01:14:14,295
Let's act like gentlemen.
1211
01:14:21,771 --> 01:14:23,500
This is fine.
1212

01:14:23,572 --> 01:14:25,301

I'll meet you backstage.
1213
01:14:25,407 --> 01:14:26,897
I don't want your fans
seeing you
1214
01:14:27,009 --> 01:14:29,273
with any female under 60.
1215
01:14:29,378 --> 01:14:31,278
They'll think
you're cheating on them.
1216
01:14:31,380 --> 01:14:33,940
You want me to pull up
to the theater dressed in these?
1217
01:14:34,049 --> 01:14:35,949
That's part of the build up.
1218
01:14:38,387 --> 01:14:40,321
The Civic Hall is
around the corner.
1219
01:14:40,422 --> 01:14:41,946
Good luck.
1220
01:14:46,662 --> 01:14:48,562
What kind of a town
is this?!
1221
01:14:48,664 --> 01:14:50,632
- You can't do this!
- I'm sorry.
1222
01:14:50,699 --> 01:14:52,826
I've got my orders.
There's nothing I can do.
1223
01:14:52,902 --> 01:14:54,529
We had a complete sellout.
1224
01:14:54,637 --> 01:14:56,468
I want to know
who's at the bottom of this.
1225

01:14:56,572 --> 01:14:58,733

Oh, go see the Mayor.
1226
01:14:58,841 --> 01:15:00,035
Stand back!
1227
01:15:00,109 --> 01:15:02,873
You all will get
your money back.
1228
01:15:09,418 --> 01:15:10,578
Deke!
1229
01:15:11,787 --> 01:15:13,948
- What's going on?
- Come on and sing.
1230
01:15:14,056 --> 01:15:16,820
- Don't let them do it.
- What happened?
1231
01:15:20,830 --> 01:15:22,764
We're coming, kid.
1232
01:15:22,832 --> 01:15:26,268
Somebody blew something.
Let's get out of here.
1233
01:15:26,368 --> 01:15:28,268
Hey, wait for me.
1234
01:15:28,370 --> 01:15:30,270
Let's go.
Come on.
1235
01:15:43,719 --> 01:15:45,983
Deke! Deke!
1236
01:15:48,090 --> 01:15:50,650
This would make
a great follow-up
1237
01:15:50,759 --> 01:15:53,523
- to my pieces on the kid.
- Thanks, O'Shea.
1238
01:15:53,629 --> 01:15:56,860

You want publicity,

don't you?
1239
01:15:56,932 --> 01:15:58,866
Well, you're getting it.
1240
01:15:58,934 --> 01:16:01,368
Yeah, I'm getting it.
This is so good
1241
01:16:01,470 --> 01:16:04,234
I'm ashamed for
not having planted it.
1242
01:16:04,340 --> 01:16:07,503
By the time I get through
with this demonstration,
1243
01:16:07,610 --> 01:16:11,046
your front page won't be
big enough to handle it.
1244
01:16:14,917 --> 01:16:16,646
I tell you, it's a natural,
Harry.
1245
01:16:16,752 --> 01:16:19,380
And you've got the ground floor
on the kid if you act fast.
1246
01:16:19,455 --> 01:16:21,889
Otherwise, I'll take it
to another network.
1247
01:16:21,957 --> 01:16:24,824
But setting up a telecast
from Freegate, Texas-1248
01:16:24,927 --> 01:16:28,294
I can't greenlight
a thing like that now.
1249
01:16:28,397 --> 01:16:30,262
Let me-1250
01:16:30,332 --> 01:16:32,266
let me get back
to you tomorrow.

1251
01:16:32,368 --> 01:16:34,029
That's too late.
1252
01:16:34,303 --> 01:16:37,670
This is a legitimate
four-star event.
1253
01:16:37,740 --> 01:16:39,867
A real issue-freedom of speech.
1254
01:16:42,645 --> 01:16:45,307
All right, call me back
tonight. Bye.
1255
01:16:48,317 --> 01:16:50,444
Who is it?
1256
01:16:50,552 --> 01:16:52,417
Just ole Tex.
1257
01:16:52,488 --> 01:16:54,683
You're Just in time
to buy me a drink.
1258
01:16:54,790 --> 01:16:57,782
- We're celebrating.
- Not so fast.
1259
01:16:57,893 --> 01:17:00,760
I had a long talk
with Mr. Rivers.
1260
01:17:00,829 --> 01:17:02,694
What's the matter with him?
1261
01:17:02,798 --> 01:17:06,427
Well, ma'am,
he Just ain't happy.
1262
01:17:06,535 --> 01:17:07,934
Ain't happy at all.
1263
01:17:08,003 --> 01:17:10,699
This ruckus down
at the Civic Hall,

1264
01:17:10,806 --> 01:17:13,673
the kind of pictures they've been
putting in the papers,
1265
01:17:13,776 --> 01:17:15,744
this talk that's going around.
1266
01:17:15,844 --> 01:17:17,641
Deke figures he'd be happier
1267
01:17:17,713 --> 01:17:20,341
Jockeying a tractor
at the Jessup place.
1268
01:17:20,449 --> 01:17:21,973
He's about to quit,
Glenda.
1269
01:17:22,251 --> 01:17:24,378
- He can't-- We've already done that bit.
1270
01:17:24,486 --> 01:17:26,351
Blew my top
all over the place.
1271
01:17:26,455 --> 01:17:29,788
Gave him all the lyrics-loyalty, gratitude...
1272
01:17:29,892 --> 01:17:31,792
money.
1273
01:17:31,894 --> 01:17:34,362
I was sailing
when all of a sudden...
1274
01:17:34,463 --> 01:17:36,761
All of a sudden, what?
1275
01:17:36,832 --> 01:17:38,595
That kid's eyes snapped on-1276
01:17:38,701 --> 01:17:42,569
lit up a deep, dark cellar
in a place we call my soul.

1277
01:17:42,671 --> 01:17:46,004
Huddled down,
way down there in a corner,
1278
01:17:46,075 --> 01:17:49,636
Just barely alive, was
an old conscience of mine.
1279
01:17:49,745 --> 01:17:51,804
Family heirloom.
1280
01:17:51,914 --> 01:17:54,474
You packed his bag for him,
I suppose.
1281
01:17:54,583 --> 01:17:57,711
A fine time for you
to hit the glory road.
1282
01:17:57,786 --> 01:17:59,583
I Just lined up
a television shot
1283
01:17:59,655 --> 01:18:01,020
to tell Deke's story
coast-to-coast.
1284
01:18:01,256 --> 01:18:02,951
- You better cancel it.
- You realize the work
1285
01:18:03,225 --> 01:18:05,455
I've put in, you've put in,
that's about to pay off?
1286
01:18:05,561 --> 01:18:08,029
No, sir,
Mr. Warner.
1287
01:18:08,297 --> 01:18:10,026
Mr. Rivers isn't going
anywhere.
1288
01:18:15,237 --> 01:18:19,264
And... if you need me
1289

01:18:19,375 --> 01:18:21,275

I'll be in the bar
1290
01:18:21,377 --> 01:18:23,277
rehearsing my drinking.
1291
01:18:29,251 --> 01:18:31,276
Aren't you gonna
pack your guitar?
1292
01:18:31,387 --> 01:18:32,877
It's yours now.
1293
01:18:33,989 --> 01:18:36,287
Tex told you, huh?
1294
01:18:39,395 --> 01:18:42,455
I'm not the only one that goes
in for the quick goodbye.
1295
01:18:42,531 --> 01:18:44,556
But I didn't know
how to tell you.
1296
01:18:44,666 --> 01:18:46,566
I know how you feel
about everything.
1297
01:18:46,668 --> 01:18:49,068
Do you?
How do I feel?
1298
01:18:49,338 --> 01:18:51,397
- About everything?
- What do you mean?
1299
01:18:51,507 --> 01:18:53,498
How do I feel when you go
to Tex and tell him
1300
01:18:53,609 --> 01:18:55,543
you're walking out,
not to me?
1301
01:18:55,611 --> 01:18:59,377
I guess I couldn't
face you...

1302
01:18:59,448 --> 01:19:01,575
not after all the hard work.
I couldn't.
1303
01:19:01,683 --> 01:19:04,345
Thanks for that much
anyway.
1304
01:19:04,453 --> 01:19:06,512
What's been happening
to me?
1305
01:19:06,588 --> 01:19:09,421
I've been changing
every minute.
1306
01:19:09,525 --> 01:19:11,220
All this fake and phony...
1307
01:19:11,293 --> 01:19:14,228
the clothes I've been wearing,
the car I've been driving.
1308
01:19:14,296 --> 01:19:17,288
What's phony about that?!
You've made something of yourself.
1309
01:19:17,366 --> 01:19:20,335
I don't like what I've made.
That's where I'm going.
1310
01:19:20,402 --> 01:19:22,336
Going where?
1311
01:19:22,404 --> 01:19:25,396
Back to Woodbine Cemetery
to start over?
1312
01:19:27,042 --> 01:19:29,943
I never meant
for anybody to say I'm-1313
01:19:31,814 --> 01:19:34,749
It sounds like
folks ought to be ashamed
1314
01:19:34,817 --> 01:19:36,751

Just listening to me sing.

1315
01:19:36,819 --> 01:19:39,379
What you're
really saying is...
1316
01:19:39,488 --> 01:19:42,252
- it's all my fault.
- Oh no.
1317
01:19:42,357 --> 01:19:46,259
You've been
wonderful to me.
1318
01:19:50,332 --> 01:19:52,664
That's why I feel so bad.
1319
01:19:54,570 --> 01:19:56,697
- I've let you down.
- No, Deke.
1320
01:19:56,805 --> 01:19:58,705
No, you haven't.
1321
01:19:58,807 --> 01:20:01,037
You tried to help me.
1322
01:20:01,276 --> 01:20:03,039
You knew how it was
with me,
1323
01:20:03,278 --> 01:20:06,475
crawling all my life because
I never knew my folks.
1324
01:20:08,383 --> 01:20:12,319
You made me think
I don't have to run anymore.
1325
01:20:12,421 --> 01:20:14,616
But tonight showed me
it ain't so.
1326
01:20:14,690 --> 01:20:16,885
I'm scared again.
1327
01:20:16,992 --> 01:20:18,823

Real scared.
1328
01:20:18,927 --> 01:20:20,554
Running and crawling
scared.
1329
01:20:20,662 --> 01:20:23,893
You have no reason
to be scared.
1330
01:20:23,999 --> 01:20:25,762
Not anymore.
1331
01:20:25,868 --> 01:20:29,304
I'll help you.
You'll be all right.
1332
01:20:41,583 --> 01:20:43,778
You cannot blame the behavior
of young people
1333
01:20:43,852 --> 01:20:45,410
or old people on music.
1334
01:20:45,521 --> 01:20:47,546
You were the same people
doing the Charleston
1335
01:20:47,656 --> 01:20:49,556
and the Black Bottom
20 years ago.
1336
01:20:49,658 --> 01:20:51,057
- 30!
- 30.
1337
01:20:51,326 --> 01:20:52,850
30 years ago, people
were alarmed
1338
01:20:52,961 --> 01:20:55,395
at what they thought Jazz
was doing to the country.
1339
01:20:55,497 --> 01:20:58,364
Some of our leading magazines
were printing articles like,

1340
01:20:58,433 --> 01:21:00,924
Is the Jazz the plot
of disaster?
1341
01:21:01,036 --> 01:21:03,402
Unspeakable Jazz must go.
1342
01:21:03,505 --> 01:21:06,736
Does Jazz put the sin
in syncopation?
1343
01:21:06,842 --> 01:21:10,300
You're adopting the same
attitude toward rock and roll
1344
01:21:10,412 --> 01:21:12,880
because your kids use it
to let off steam.
1345
01:21:12,948 --> 01:21:14,882
And it goes back
beyond Jazz.
1346
01:21:14,950 --> 01:21:16,611
When Debussy's
Afternoon of a Fawn
1347
01:21:16,718 --> 01:21:19,380
and Stravinsky's Rites of Spring
were first performed,
1348
01:21:19,488 --> 01:21:21,422
there were riots
in the streets of France.
1349
01:21:21,490 --> 01:21:23,424
That don't prove anything.
1350
01:21:23,492 --> 01:21:25,756
There are always riots
for one reason or another.
1351
01:21:25,861 --> 01:21:28,625
The point is,
this is nothing new.
1352
01:21:28,697 --> 01:21:31,757

Let me do a little
flag waving, gentlemen.
1353
01:21:31,867 --> 01:21:33,994
One of the things that
makes America great
1354
01:21:34,069 --> 01:21:36,003
is the right
to a fair hearing,
1355
01:21:36,071 --> 01:21:38,767
yet you've condemned
Deke Rivers without it.
1356
01:21:38,874 --> 01:21:41,900
You have no idea
how many phone calls
1357
01:21:42,010 --> 01:21:43,944
we've received here
at the City Hall.
1358
01:21:44,012 --> 01:21:45,980
Just look
at all these wires.
1359
01:21:46,081 --> 01:21:48,311
Still condemned
without a hearing.
1360
01:21:48,417 --> 01:21:50,442
The name of your city
is Freegate.
1361
01:21:50,552 --> 01:21:52,486
How about living up
to its name?
1362
01:21:52,554 --> 01:21:54,385
We've got a coast-to-coast
telecast set up
1363
01:21:54,489 --> 01:21:56,480
to go tonight
from your Civic Hall.
1364
01:21:56,592 --> 01:21:58,958

You've got a chance

to make Freegate
1365
01:21:59,061 --> 01:22:01,291
an important community
in that half-hour.
1366
01:22:01,363 --> 01:22:03,695
Are you going to miss
that chance?
1367
01:22:15,310 --> 01:22:17,301
Mr. Shelton wants to know
1368
01:22:17,412 --> 01:22:19,676
if he'll have
to wear makeup.
1369
01:22:20,816 --> 01:22:23,785
I'll put it on personally.
1370
01:22:23,852 --> 01:22:25,820
Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
1371
01:22:25,921 --> 01:22:27,320
Thank you, gentlemen.
1372
01:22:30,425 --> 01:22:32,325
Do you realize something?
1373
01:22:32,427 --> 01:22:34,520
I Just fought City Hall.
1374
01:22:34,630 --> 01:22:36,996
City Hall isn't so tough.
1375
01:22:38,567 --> 01:22:41,593
I found our fearless leader.
1376
01:22:41,703 --> 01:22:45,070
Well... you really did
rehearse your drinking.
1377
01:22:45,307 --> 01:22:48,037
Yeah. Funny, too...
1378

01:22:48,110 --> 01:22:52,012

after the first five shots,
it all came back to me.
1379
01:22:52,114 --> 01:22:54,309
You better struggle down
to the barbershop
1380
01:22:54,416 --> 01:22:56,441
across the street
and have yourself restored.
1381
01:22:56,551 --> 01:22:59,884
I wouldn't want Harry Taylor
seeing you like this.
1382
01:22:59,988 --> 01:23:02,786
- What's he doing here?
- Flying in for the telecast.
1383
01:23:02,858 --> 01:23:04,792
- We're on at 8:00.
- What about Deke?
1384
01:23:04,860 --> 01:23:06,919
What about him?
He's the star of our show.
1385
01:23:07,029 --> 01:23:09,293
You better get yourself
cleaned up.
1386
01:23:09,364 --> 01:23:10,558
You've got
a long rehearsal.
1387
01:23:10,666 --> 01:23:12,031
How did you change
his mind?
1388
01:23:12,301 --> 01:23:15,065
We took a nice long drive
in that nice long car,
1389
01:23:15,337 --> 01:23:17,066
and had a nice long talk.
1390
01:23:17,339 --> 01:23:19,807

I've got a million things to do.

See you later.
1391
01:23:21,777 --> 01:23:23,711
She's quite a gal.
1392
01:23:23,779 --> 01:23:26,805
Yeah. Always was.
1393
01:23:28,517 --> 01:23:30,451
I don't understand.
1394
01:23:30,519 --> 01:23:32,714
Last night when I left Deke,
he was packed.
1395
01:23:32,821 --> 01:23:35,551
Couple hours later,
he comes back after that ride
1396
01:23:35,657 --> 01:23:37,557
and he's nine feet tall.
1397
01:23:37,659 --> 01:23:39,820
I don't know
how she does it.
1398
01:23:42,297 --> 01:23:44,731
I have a pretty good idea,
though.
1399
01:23:46,501 --> 01:23:49,698
Well, let's get down
to that barbershop.
1400
01:23:49,771 --> 01:23:52,672
Maybe I'll get lucky
and he'll cut my throat.
1401
01:24:02,584 --> 01:24:05,485
Phil, can we get this dish
set up first?
1402
01:24:10,625 --> 01:24:12,957
Are you expecting a car
from Transplains Airlines?
1403

01:24:13,028 --> 01:24:14,859

Yeah, sure am.
1404
01:24:14,963 --> 01:24:16,863
- Pull up back here.
- Right.
1405
01:24:21,703 --> 01:24:24,399
Bob, the kid's hot rod
is here.
1406
01:24:25,707 --> 01:24:27,675
- Deke?
- Yeah?
1407
01:24:27,776 --> 01:24:29,744
Hit it harder
all the way through.
1408
01:24:29,811 --> 01:24:31,073
You have 1 4 men in the band
1409
01:24:31,313 --> 01:24:33,577
and the Jordanaires
working up a storm behind you,
1410
01:24:33,648 --> 01:24:35,047
so come on like
a truck of turkeys.
1411
01:24:35,317 --> 01:24:36,909
Sure. Okay.
Hey.
1412
01:24:37,018 --> 01:24:39,043
Are you sore at me
about something?
1413
01:24:39,321 --> 01:24:41,983
I got a lot on my mind,
that's all.
1414
01:24:43,091 --> 01:24:45,321
Glad to see
you decided to stay.
1415
01:24:45,427 --> 01:24:48,794
You know, Susan'll be

on the show.
1416
01:24:48,864 --> 01:24:50,593
Is that why you stayed?
1417
01:24:50,699 --> 01:24:53,896
Not exactly. It will
be nice seeing her.
1418
01:24:54,002 --> 01:24:55,799
How come you did
change your mind?
1419
01:24:55,904 --> 01:24:57,963
It was on account
of Miss Glenda.
1420
01:24:59,341 --> 01:25:00,899
You know what, Tex.
1421
01:25:01,009 --> 01:25:04,376
I never realized how much
I meant to her last night.
1422
01:25:07,516 --> 01:25:09,416
Take a tip from somebody
who's been there-1423
01:25:09,518 --> 01:25:10,917
watch your self
in the clinches.
1424
01:25:11,019 --> 01:25:12,884
Hey!
1425
01:25:12,954 --> 01:25:14,945
I'm afraid
I don't get you.
1426
01:25:15,056 --> 01:25:16,956
It's simple.
You're on the hook.
1427
01:25:17,058 --> 01:25:19,652
- I'm off it.
- Wait a minute.
1428

01:25:19,761 --> 01:25:21,058

Sit down.
1429
01:25:21,329 --> 01:25:23,957
Was there something
between you and Glenda?
1430
01:25:24,032 --> 01:25:26,796
A little.
We were engaged once.
1431
01:25:26,868 --> 01:25:29,530
Didn't work out.
We got married.
1432
01:25:29,638 --> 01:25:32,835
That didn't work out either.
We got divorced.
1433
01:25:34,309 --> 01:25:37,301
- You and Glenda married?
- It didn't work out.
1434
01:25:37,412 --> 01:25:40,279
We got divorced.
Funny...
1435
01:25:40,382 --> 01:25:42,475
Divorce hasn't
worked out either.
1436
01:25:43,585 --> 01:25:45,576
After last night,
maybe it will.
1437
01:25:45,687 --> 01:25:47,678
Hey, wait a minute.
1438
01:25:49,324 --> 01:25:51,622
I don't know
what to say.
1439
01:25:51,693 --> 01:25:53,991
Last night she acted like...
1440
01:25:54,062 --> 01:25:56,553
like I meant a lot to her,

1441
01:25:56,665 --> 01:25:58,895
like I was the only one
that did mean anything.
1442
01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:00,558
You do, kid.
1443
01:26:00,669 --> 01:26:01,863
You mean her whole future.
1444
01:26:01,970 --> 01:26:04,632
Blew my chance.
Maybe you'll have better luck.
1445
01:26:04,706 --> 01:26:06,901
This show comes off
the way she planned it,
1446
01:26:07,008 --> 01:26:09,533
and you're on your way
to New York.
1447
01:26:17,652 --> 01:26:18,880
That'll be all right.
1448
01:26:18,954 --> 01:26:21,252
I'll run over
Mr. Warner's lines with him.
1449
01:26:21,356 --> 01:26:23,347
Check the cue cards
on the Jessup girl,
1450
01:26:23,458 --> 01:26:24,789
the mayor and the others.
1451
01:26:24,860 --> 01:26:26,919
- What about Rivers?
- He'll be all right.
1452
01:26:26,995 --> 01:26:28,929
He's only got one line
before his song.
1453
01:26:28,997 --> 01:26:31,363
I want to run
over your lines.

1454
01:26:31,466 --> 01:26:34,526
- Say, Tex-- Excuse a moment, gentlemen.
1455
01:26:35,837 --> 01:26:38,397
I have a few lines I want
to run over with you.
1456
01:26:38,507 --> 01:26:40,805
But, baby, the show's
about to go on.
1457
01:26:40,909 --> 01:26:43,309
There's always a minute
for old friends and lovers.
1458
01:26:43,411 --> 01:26:46,778
You'll have all the minutes
you want after the show.
1459
01:26:46,882 --> 01:26:48,782
Harry's so pleased
with the way you look.
1460
01:26:48,884 --> 01:26:51,682
Of course I'm pleased
with you myself.
1461
01:26:54,689 --> 01:26:55,951
What's the matter?
1462
01:26:56,024 --> 01:26:58,015
I was trying
to figure out something
1463
01:26:58,293 --> 01:27:01,228
- I could say to your face.
- What?
1464
01:27:01,296 --> 01:27:04,322
- What does that mean?
- I never really thought
1465
01:27:04,432 --> 01:27:07,299
of myself as your ex-husband
until now.

1466
01:27:07,402 --> 01:27:09,495
I'm starting to enJoy
the thought.
1467
01:27:09,604 --> 01:27:12,505
You're playing a score
I never heard.
1468
01:27:12,607 --> 01:27:14,541
All right, I'll give
you the lyrics.
1469
01:27:14,609 --> 01:27:16,907
Deke Rivers is on cloud nine
because of you.
1470
01:27:17,012 --> 01:27:19,674
I always knew you'd go far
to get what you want.
1471
01:27:19,781 --> 01:27:21,578
Last night
you really went.
1472
01:27:21,683 --> 01:27:24,015
What did I do
last night?
1473
01:27:24,252 --> 01:27:26,015
He must have
misinterpreted something-1474
01:27:26,288 --> 01:27:29,951
There are some things
not open to misinterpreting.
1475
01:27:30,025 --> 01:27:34,462
I want to get back on top,
but not this way, baby.
1476
01:27:34,529 --> 01:27:36,588
- I've had it with you.
- Listen, Tex!
1477
01:27:36,665 --> 01:27:38,724
All right, I'll play
your show for you.

1478
01:27:38,833 --> 01:27:40,892
- Then I'm going tonight.
- No!
1479
01:27:41,002 --> 01:27:43,732
Do you realize what
you're accusing me of?
1480
01:27:43,838 --> 01:27:45,806
I didn't. I swear to you.
1481
01:27:45,907 --> 01:27:47,807
You would have
if you had to.
1482
01:27:47,909 --> 01:27:51,037
I let him kiss me.
Was that so wrong?
1483
01:27:51,279 --> 01:27:54,339
He needed reassurance
he's not alone in the world.
1484
01:27:54,449 --> 01:27:56,781
Reassurance? Is that
what they're calling it now?
1485
01:28:01,957 --> 01:28:05,449
Why do you make it so difficult
for me to love you?
1486
01:28:05,560 --> 01:28:06,959
Love?
1487
01:28:07,228 --> 01:28:08,695
If I didn't love you,
1488
01:28:08,797 --> 01:28:11,391
why would I knock myself out
on these whistle stops,
1489
01:28:11,466 --> 01:28:12,956
when I could be writing
my own ticket
1490
01:28:13,234 --> 01:28:14,895
on Michigan Boulevard

or Madison Avenue?
1491
01:28:15,003 --> 01:28:16,630
I don't buy that.
1492
01:28:16,705 --> 01:28:19,265
You could have helped me
months ago if you wanted to-1493
01:28:19,374 --> 01:28:20,932
without Deke,
before Tallman.
1494
01:28:21,042 --> 01:28:22,839
You know I'd have straightened
myself out.
1495
01:28:22,944 --> 01:28:25,378
People would have believed you
if you'd have told them.
1496
01:28:25,447 --> 01:28:28,746
All right...
1497
01:28:28,850 --> 01:28:30,750
you asked for it.
1498
01:28:30,852 --> 01:28:33,252
I did tell them.
1499
01:28:33,321 --> 01:28:37,257
I told everyone from New York to
San Francisco who could have helped.
1500
01:28:37,325 --> 01:28:39,987
But they didn't want you.
1501
01:28:40,261 --> 01:28:41,728
Nobody wanted you.
1502
01:28:47,402 --> 01:28:48,869
I'm sorry.
1503
01:28:54,075 --> 01:28:56,475
You've got to believe me
about Deke.

1504
01:28:57,812 --> 01:28:59,609
Why?
1505
01:29:00,649 --> 01:29:02,514
Where's Miss Markle?
Her star's gone.
1506
01:29:02,584 --> 01:29:04,017
Deke? Well, now...
1507
01:29:04,252 --> 01:29:06,345
Mr. Taylor, Rivers Just took off
in that hot rod.
1508
01:29:06,454 --> 01:29:09,218
I might have known it. Anything
you're mixed up in, Warner.
1509
01:29:09,324 --> 01:29:11,588
I'm Just looking
for a nose to hang one on.
1510
01:29:11,693 --> 01:29:14,355
- Don't volunteer yours.
- Stop it, you've got a show to do.
1511
01:29:14,462 --> 01:29:15,827
What show?
Where's your star?
1512
01:29:15,930 --> 01:29:18,398
Ad-lib around the other people.
I'll get Deke back here.
1513
01:29:18,466 --> 01:29:21,594
What happened here?
What went wrong?
1514
01:29:21,670 --> 01:29:25,299
Don't you know, Taylor?
It's the Warner curse.
1515
01:29:27,342 --> 01:29:30,402
- Miss Markle, he headed north.
- Thanks.
1516
01:29:59,441 --> 01:30:02,342

This is Freegate, Texas,

1517
01:30:02,410 --> 01:30:04,071
a town
that dedicates itself
1518
01:30:04,345 --> 01:30:06,609
to the American
ideal of freedom.
1519
01:30:06,715 --> 01:30:09,809
A town that tonight
is asking America
1520
01:30:09,918 --> 01:30:12,079
to help it Judge
its own Judgment.
1521
01:30:12,320 --> 01:30:15,585
It was here that a young,
hitherto unknown entertainer
1522
01:30:15,657 --> 01:30:18,785
made local headlines
only two days ago.
1523
01:30:23,431 --> 01:30:24,989
I think that Deke Rivers
1524
01:30:25,100 --> 01:30:27,534
should be allowed to sing
anywhere that he pleases.
1525
01:30:30,405 --> 01:30:32,896
I think it's pretty silly
to say that his performance
1526
01:30:33,007 --> 01:30:35,737
has any kind of influence
on kids or anybody.
1527
01:30:39,013 --> 01:30:41,982
You know,
what grown-ups mean
1528
01:30:42,083 --> 01:30:44,108
is that they don't like
the same things we like,

1529
01:30:44,385 --> 01:30:46,012
so we have no business
liking them.
1530
01:30:47,922 --> 01:30:50,584
Gosh, I've listened
to some of the singers
1531
01:30:50,692 --> 01:30:53,058
my folks are crazy
about, and-1532
01:30:53,328 --> 01:30:56,889
I sure wish their folks would
have a little talk with them.
1533
01:31:16,851 --> 01:31:19,285
From the day
he come to town,
1534
01:31:19,354 --> 01:31:21,322
we all took
a liking to him.
1535
01:31:21,389 --> 01:31:22,947
He was a good worker, too.
1536
01:31:23,057 --> 01:31:25,582
My boss was sorry
to have let him go,
1537
01:31:25,693 --> 01:31:27,593
but Mr. Warner
needed him so bad
1538
01:31:27,695 --> 01:31:30,994
that he knew he'd be better off
singing than working in a store.
1539
01:31:31,065 --> 01:31:35,729
All of us back in Delville are
proud of the success he's made.
1540
01:31:48,082 --> 01:31:50,778
Those stories in the paper
aren't all true.

1541
01:31:50,885 --> 01:31:54,616
I sneaked into Deke's dressing
room on a dare, that's all.
1542
01:31:54,689 --> 01:31:57,123
He had nothing to do with it.
1543
01:31:57,358 --> 01:32:00,521
I really didn't want
to start anything.
1544
01:32:00,628 --> 01:32:04,997
It was Just
a show-off kind of thing.
1545
01:32:25,820 --> 01:32:29,517
- Deke, are you all right?
- Yeah, I'm all right.
1546
01:32:30,925 --> 01:32:33,018
You're a regular bloodhound,
aren't ya?
1547
01:32:33,294 --> 01:32:36,661
Deke, please, I've had enough
for one night.
1548
01:32:36,764 --> 01:32:39,631
Just tell me one thing-- where
did you think you were going?
1549
01:32:39,734 --> 01:32:41,861
If I can lie like you,
maybe I can answer.
1550
01:32:41,936 --> 01:32:43,870
Okay.
1551
01:32:43,938 --> 01:32:47,897
I guess it's time I straightened
out the books with you, too.
1552
01:32:48,009 --> 01:32:49,943
You can have the truth.
1553
01:32:51,679 --> 01:32:53,544
You see that car?

1554
01:32:53,648 --> 01:32:56,742
Tex hocked his life insurance
to buy it. There is no oil widow.
1555
01:32:56,818 --> 01:32:59,753
The pictures in the paper,
the kids fighting over you-1556
01:32:59,854 --> 01:33:01,515
I started it all.
1557
01:33:01,623 --> 01:33:03,454
I even had you fired
in the first place
1558
01:33:03,558 --> 01:33:05,583
so you'd come with us-that's my Job.
1559
01:33:05,660 --> 01:33:08,322
Why didn't you tell me this
last night?
1560
01:33:08,429 --> 01:33:11,398
Last night I still had Tex.
1561
01:33:11,499 --> 01:33:14,263
And whatever I let you believe
was part of my Job,
1562
01:33:14,369 --> 01:33:16,701
to make it worth something
to us and to yourself.
1563
01:33:16,804 --> 01:33:20,331
You been telling me one lie
after another from the beginning.
1564
01:33:20,441 --> 01:33:23,808
One thing I didn't lie about,
Deke, is your future.
1565
01:33:23,912 --> 01:33:27,370
It's waiting for you
on that stage in Freegate.
1566

01:33:27,448 --> 01:33:30,042

You don't need
my help anymore.
1567
01:33:30,285 --> 01:33:31,877
You're about
to make it on your own.
1568
01:33:31,953 --> 01:33:34,786
It's not my future
you're interested in,
1569
01:33:34,856 --> 01:33:36,016
it's yours.
1570
01:33:36,291 --> 01:33:37,883
It's what I can do
to help you.
1571
01:33:37,992 --> 01:33:39,960
You don't care about me
or about Tex,
1572
01:33:40,061 --> 01:33:42,928
- or about anybody but yourself.
- You've got to go back, Deke.
1573
01:33:43,031 --> 01:33:46,489
Stop running. All your life,
you've been looking for somebody.
1574
01:33:46,567 --> 01:33:48,091
For Mama.
1575
01:33:48,369 --> 01:33:51,338
It's time you realized
that Mama's never going to come.
1576
01:33:51,406 --> 01:33:54,341
Grow up, Deke. You've got a Job
to do, to do alone.
1577
01:33:55,610 --> 01:33:57,703
Here's your contract.
1578
01:33:57,779 --> 01:34:00,009
I don't even want half of it.

1579
01:34:00,114 --> 01:34:02,810
The only one you owe anything
to now is yourself...
1580
01:34:02,917 --> 01:34:05,442
and Susan,
or somebody like her.
1581
01:34:05,553 --> 01:34:08,750
You've got 1 5 minutes
to get on that stage
1582
01:34:08,856 --> 01:34:11,916
and find out if you've
even got a future.
1583
01:34:16,764 --> 01:34:17,025
I guess he was always
kind of scared and shy-1584
01:34:20,835 --> 01:34:23,269
except for when
he was singing.
1585
01:34:23,371 --> 01:34:26,670
He sort of covered up
his feelings with his songs.
1586
01:34:26,741 --> 01:34:29,608
What are we gonna do now? Her spot's
supposed to lead into his.
1587
01:34:29,711 --> 01:34:32,942
A whole 30 minutes around
a guy who doesn't show.
1588
01:34:33,047 --> 01:34:36,346
I'm gonna tell you the truth
about something.
1589
01:34:36,451 --> 01:34:39,545
And this isn't
written in the script.
1590
01:34:41,622 --> 01:34:45,080
Deke Rivers isn't here tonight.
He ran away.

1591
01:34:45,326 --> 01:34:48,625
They're out looking for him now,
but they'll never find him.
1592
01:34:48,696 --> 01:34:52,530
And I shouldn't wonder what-some of the stupid things
1593
01:34:52,633 --> 01:34:54,863
they've been saying
and printing about him.
1594
01:34:58,940 --> 01:35:00,931
- He's here!
- Announce! Announce!
1595
01:35:01,042 --> 01:35:03,533
Announce! Announce!
1596
01:35:03,611 --> 01:35:06,341
America, Judge for yourself.
1597
01:35:11,919 --> 01:35:14,319
Ladies and gentlemen...
1598
01:35:14,422 --> 01:35:18,984
I don't even know if I'm worth
listening to or not,
1599
01:35:19,260 --> 01:35:22,718
but, well, I'm certainly
grateful for the chance...
1600
01:35:22,830 --> 01:35:25,298
'cause there's
someone here tonight
1601
01:35:25,366 --> 01:35:27,926
that I've got something
very important to say to.
1602
01:35:29,037 --> 01:35:30,868
I Just want to say that-1603
01:35:33,574 --> 01:35:35,804
I think she'll know.

1604
01:35:45,386 --> 01:35:52,087
I will spend
my whole life through
1605
01:35:52,326 --> 01:35:54,760
Loving you
1606
01:35:54,862 --> 01:35:57,831
Just loving you
1607
01:35:57,899 --> 01:36:03,667
Winter, summer,
springtime, too
1608
01:36:03,771 --> 01:36:07,036
Loving you
1609
01:36:07,308 --> 01:36:10,334
Loving you
1610
01:36:10,445 --> 01:36:21,253
Makes no difference
where I go or what I do
1611
01:36:21,355 --> 01:36:30,730
You know that I'll
always be loving you
1612
01:36:30,832 --> 01:36:32,459
Just you
1613
01:36:32,567 --> 01:36:38,870
And if I'm seen
with someone new
1614
01:36:38,940 --> 01:36:42,068
Don't be blue
1615
01:36:42,343 --> 01:36:45,574
Don't you be blue
1616
01:36:45,646 --> 01:36:51,949
I'll be faithful,
I'll be true
1617
01:36:52,053 --> 01:36:54,749

Always true
1618
01:36:54,822 --> 01:36:57,620
True to you
1619
01:36:57,692 --> 01:37:02,391
There is
only one for me
1620
01:37:02,463 --> 01:37:08,993
And you know who
1621
01:37:09,270 --> 01:37:15,231
You know
that I'll always be
1622
01:37:15,343 --> 01:37:19,939
Loving
1623
01:37:20,047 --> 01:37:23,608
You.
1624
01:37:30,758 --> 01:37:33,818
Here, Skeet-now you're a bandleader.
1625
01:37:36,063 --> 01:37:38,827
Oh, Deke-Deke, I do know.
1626
01:37:38,933 --> 01:37:41,333
You've shown me,
now show them.
1627
01:37:41,435 --> 01:37:42,902
Okay.
1628
01:37:43,004 --> 01:37:45,302
- Tex-- They made you all head-1629
01:37:45,373 --> 01:37:47,841
no heart, Just head.
Congratulations.
1630
01:37:47,909 --> 01:37:49,706
- What are you doing?

- The kid's a hit.

1631
01:37:49,810 --> 01:37:51,641
I kept my promise-I played your show,
1632
01:37:51,746 --> 01:37:53,304
now I'm gonna
keep my promise to me.
1633
01:37:53,414 --> 01:37:55,678
- I need to tell you something.
- Drop me a postcard.
1634
01:37:55,783 --> 01:37:57,580
Listen to me
for a minute.
1635
01:38:01,289 --> 01:38:04,417
Oh, yes, I've got
a lot of living to do
1636
01:38:04,525 --> 01:38:06,789
I've got a lot
of loving to do
1637
01:38:06,894 --> 01:38:10,523
Come on, baby,
to make a party takes two
1638
01:38:10,631 --> 01:38:13,691
Oh, yes, I've got
a lot of living to do
1639
01:38:13,801 --> 01:38:16,235
I got a lot
of loving to do
1640
01:38:16,337 --> 01:38:19,238
And there's no one who I'd
rather do it to than-a you
1641
01:38:20,575 --> 01:38:22,941
So I got a lot
of living to do
1642
01:38:23,044 --> 01:38:25,308
Well, I got a lot

of loving to do
1643
01:38:25,379 --> 01:38:28,815
Come on, baby,
to make a party takes two
1644
01:38:28,916 --> 01:38:31,976
Oh yes, I've got
a lot of living to do
1645
01:38:32,253 --> 01:38:34,483
Well, I got
a lot of loving to do
1646
01:38:34,589 --> 01:38:37,558
And there's no one who I'd
rather do it to than-a you
1647
01:38:38,960 --> 01:38:40,928
There's a moon
that's big and bright
1648
01:38:40,995 --> 01:38:43,463
In the milky way tonight
1649
01:38:43,531 --> 01:38:47,968
But the way you act you never
would know it's there
1650
01:38:48,069 --> 01:38:50,333
Now baby,
time's a-wasting
1651
01:38:50,404 --> 01:38:52,736
A lot of kisses
I ain't been tasting
1652
01:38:52,840 --> 01:38:56,537
I don't know about you
but I'm gonna get my share
1653
01:38:56,611 --> 01:38:59,739
Oh, I got
a lot of living to do
1654
01:38:59,847 --> 01:39:01,815
I got a lot
of loving to do

1655
01:39:01,882 --> 01:39:05,613
Come on, baby,
to make a party takes two
1656
01:39:05,720 --> 01:39:08,553
Oh yes, I've got
a lot of living to do
1657
01:39:08,623 --> 01:39:10,784
Well, I got a lot
of loving to do
1658
01:39:10,891 --> 01:39:13,724
And there's no one who I'd
rather do it to than-a you
1659
01:39:15,263 --> 01:39:17,390
And no one
1660
01:39:17,465 --> 01:39:19,933
I'd rather do it with
1661
01:39:20,034 --> 01:39:22,662
Than-a you.
1662
01:39:38,419 --> 01:39:41,354
As soon as the kid comes off,
we've got business to settle.
1663
01:39:41,455 --> 01:39:43,480
Settle it with Deke, Harry.
1664
01:39:43,591 --> 01:39:45,616
I tore up our contract.
1665
01:39:48,963 --> 01:39:50,988
There's a heart there,
after all.
1666
01:39:54,869 --> 01:39:57,667
Thanks a lot, everybody!
1667
01:39:57,738 --> 01:39:59,330
Miss Glenda...
1668

01:40:00,741 --> 01:40:02,572

Miss Glenda...
1669
01:40:02,677 --> 01:40:07,444
I would like you and Tex to take
over and handle things for me.
1670
01:40:07,548 --> 01:40:10,847
If it wasn't for you,
I wouldn't even be here,
1671
01:40:10,951 --> 01:40:12,748
and I'd like for us
to stick together.
1672
01:40:12,820 --> 01:40:14,310
Even after-1673
01:40:14,422 --> 01:40:17,880
All I know, ma'am,
is that you and Tex and...
1674
01:40:17,992 --> 01:40:21,860
and Susan are all
what I've been looking for.
1675
01:40:21,962 --> 01:40:23,623
Friends.
1676
01:40:23,698 --> 01:40:25,563
You proved that tonight.
1677
01:40:25,666 --> 01:40:27,531
Well, all right, friends,
1678
01:40:27,635 --> 01:40:30,035
shall we go inside
and get on with the contracts?
1679
01:40:30,104 --> 01:40:33,073
I'm in a position, my boy,
to offer you a deal that I think...
1680
01:40:34,475 --> 01:40:37,911
Glenda, before we start,
this is the way I see it.
1681

01:40:37,978 --> 01:40:40,572

We don't do guest shots-we start with our own show.
1682
01:40:40,681 --> 01:40:43,980
Whoa, boy.
You're getting that old feeling.
1683
01:40:44,085 --> 01:40:45,746
I am, huh?
1684
01:40:45,820 --> 01:40:49,381
Please, don't let anything
spoil it this time.
1685
01:40:49,490 --> 01:40:52,015
Promise me, Walter?
1686
01:40:52,126 --> 01:40:55,789
( drawls )
Lady-ma'am, Just call me Tex.
1687
01:41:02,937 --> 01:41:04,962
I think we'll have to wait
a little while.
1688
01:41:05,039 --> 01:41:07,633
My managers are negotiating
a deal of their own.
1689
01:41:07,742 --> 01:41:10,575
If you'll excuse us,
Mr. Taylor,
1690
01:41:10,678 --> 01:41:14,876
I think this is one deal
I can handle by myself.
