1:27:01
But before I could see her,
I ran into her husband and his brother.
1:27:05
They beat me up pretty bad
in the parking lot.
1:27:09
Her husband said
Mary didn't want to see me no more.
1:27:12
If I ever tried to see her again...
1:27:14
they'd break my fingers
and I'd never play the guitar again.
1:27:18
So I left town.
1:27:22
And did she have the baby?
1:27:24
Yeah, I heard she did.
1:27:27
A little girl.
1:27:30
You never tried to see her? The little girl?
1:27:37
No, she's better off
not knowing about me.
1:27:41
Mary was right to go back to her husband.
1:27:44
What the hell did I have to offer a kid?
1:27:46
Just honkytonks and flophouses.
1:27:51
That's the life of a country singer.
1:27:53
Hoss, does it sound good to you?
1:27:57
Don't sound too hot
when you put it like that.
1:28:00
But it sure beats picking cotton
and living in a sharecropper's shack.
1:28:09
Maybe you're right, boy.
1:28:11
Maybe you're right.
1:28:13
Maybe if I get this break on the Opry...
1:28:17
we won't have to stay in any flophouses
or sharecropper's shacks ever again.
