I tell ya there… there were these two old guys ranched up together, down home. Earl and Rich. And they was the joke of town, even though they were pretty tough ol’ birds. Anyway they… they found Earl dead in an irrigation ditch. Took a tire iron to ‘im. Spurred him up, drug him ’round by his dick ’till it pulled off.
You ever get the feelin’… I don’t know, er… when you’re in town and… someone looks at you… suspicious, like he knows? And then you go out on the pavement and everyone’s looking at you like they all know too?
Texas? Sure, maybe you can convince Alma to let you and Lureen adopt the girls! And we can just live together herdin’ sheep. And it’ll rain money from LD Newsome and… and whiskey will flow in the streams – Jack, that’s real smart. Real smart.
Short story honey. Only ’bout three seconds I was on that bronc. Next thing I knew, I was flyin’ through the air… only I wasn’t no angel like you and Jenny here; didn’t have no wings. And that’s the story of my saddle bronc career.
Jack, I gotta work. I mean in them earlier days I just quit the job. You forget what it’s like being broke all the time. You ever hear of child support? I’ll tell you this, I can’t quit this one, and I can’t get the time off. It’s hard enough getting this one. The trade off is August. You got a better idea?
You did once. You ever been to Mexico, Jack Twist? Because I heard what they got in Mexico for boys like you.
Well, why don’t you? Why don’t you just let me be? It’s because of you Jack, that I’m like this! I’m nothin’… I’m nowhere…
