For me, it was a miracle to see
such light in a human being again.

:08:07
When you came, it was like the day
had started off without the sun.

:08:12
It's dim and it's cool.
:08:14
Then suddenly,
and without any warning...

:08:17
the sunshine breaks through the dimness
and lights up everything.

:08:30
What ya gonna do
Do you wanna get down

:08:35

My mother was a Pygmy.
She stood four foot, one inch.

:09:01
- Hmm.
- My father was a big Watusi.

:09:04
He was seven foot, ten.
:09:07
He'd have to pick her up
like a little child to kiss her.

:09:11

:09:24
They'rejust a little bit too much
of this stuff, you know?

:09:28
But, uh, then again...
:09:31
I once rode the rails
with a hobo by the name of, um...

:09:36
Alabama.
:09:38
Now, he was white folks...
:09:41
and he was a good man.
:09:45
Mm-hmm. He saved my life
three times.

:09:49
- Three times?
- Mm-hmm. Three times.

:09:55
Three times life, huh?
:09:58
Everything I lost...
