0:00:41 > 0:00:43Yes it is, that ain't no kind of music.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45At least I make a sound.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48Yeah, and it's a nasty one.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22# She done it just the same

0:04:26 > 0:04:28# The women didn't like her

0:04:28 > 0:04:32# And they called her out of her name

0:04:32 > 0:04:34# But the men, they loved her

0:05:26 > 0:05:28throwin' that money after them dice and what not.

0:05:30 > 0:05:31Lucky we got none of that here.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08Sounding good, huh?

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Sounds fine. Always has.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18- Not much of a crowd. - Not a crowd at all,

0:06:18 > 0:06:24just some stiffs who wanna drink themselves to sleep without the music waking them up.

0:06:24 > 0:06:25You oughta advertise.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Got an attraction like Bertha Mae.

0:06:27 > 0:06:31Singing is one thing, Slick, but whether people wanna look at you

0:06:31 > 0:06:34- when you do it is another. - Got quite a number

0:06:34 > 0:06:36- over the Toussaint's place tonight. - Sounds like it.

0:06:36 > 0:06:40Lots of young folks coming in to listen to that box of his.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43I don't see why we don't just turn our box on, let folks feed it nickels like they do.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46The lady is singing.

0:06:46 > 0:06:52# You hear me pleading, baby Baby, don't you leave me here...#

0:06:52 > 0:06:55But didn't nobody come to listen to her, Slick.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58# Come here, sweet Daddy

0:06:58 > 0:07:01# Let me whisper in your ear...#

0:07:01 > 0:07:05Like the man say, you can't argue with failure.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07You know why Slick here's like a preacher?

0:07:07 > 0:07:11Cos he do all his best work on his knees!

0:07:11 > 0:07:14Never mind him, he's just drunk.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18I heard she put a ring through it, use it to drag him round the house.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Come on, you know Tyrone don't like no scuffle in here.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25I ought to get me old lady, help out with the groceries...

0:07:25 > 0:07:29You just gotta sweet talk her some, give her a little poke every now and then.

0:07:29 > 0:07:34- You gonna drink, or you gonna lay about recoverin' from that busted head you about to get?- Gentlemen!

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Miss Delilah.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40Let's behave ourselves.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43What are you boys doing in here?

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Out, out! And what are you doing behind that bar?

0:07:46 > 0:07:50- It's just for a minute. - That's 60 seconds too long.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52Maceo, take that child's place.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55- You bring people their food, don't be messing with their liquor. - Nobody's eating!

0:07:55 > 0:07:59That's cos nobody's here but these couple of lost souls.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03Haven't had an appetite since they gave over to the devil.

0:08:10 > 0:08:15Evening, Maceo, you looking good tonight!

0:08:15 > 0:08:17Likewise, Miss Nadine.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19What can I do for you?

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Oh, you know what you can do for me, sweet man.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26What would you like...to drink?

0:08:32 > 0:08:34How many is that tonight?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Don't talk to me about that, baby.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39- Not tonight.- I don't want China Doll behind that bar.

0:08:39 > 0:08:40She's got to help out.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44Not behind there she doesn't. You know she's not supposed to get excited.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Not much chance of that in here.

0:08:46 > 0:08:50Harvest hands all crowded in to Toussaint's place.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52Young ones.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54You'll get some of them.

0:08:54 > 0:08:58They'll stick their noses in here, get one little sniff of the music and go home.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01Maybe that's the wages of sin.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Ain't no sin happening here tonight, baby.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06And there sure as hell ain't no wages.

0:09:06 > 0:09:10Your God wants to chastise some sinners, he'd best go over to Toussaint's.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Got a whole bar room crowded with them.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14He's not my God.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16He's everybody's God.

0:09:23 > 0:09:24How did the meeting go tonight?

0:09:26 > 0:09:29Viola Underwood found the Lord.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32If she'd found Him last, she wouldn't have come through.

0:09:32 > 0:09:38She must have lost Him again between then and now cos she come down that aisle tonight hollering in tongues.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43The spirit didn't move you, though?

0:09:44 > 0:09:45Not yet.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51Maybe it's too late for me.

0:09:55 > 0:10:00I can't believe he's serving Alton Stokely. That poor man.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Toussaint cut his credit off.

0:10:02 > 0:10:07Either he gets it here, or he drinks that paint peeler Willie Pettigrew cuts up back in his swamp.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10I'm gonna go home, say a prayer for that man.

0:10:13 > 0:10:14Say one for me too, baby.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28Outstanding, baby. Outstanding.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31- You've still got the voice. - You think so?

0:10:31 > 0:10:33Chills down my spine just to hear you.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38Ty, I'm gonna be a little late Saturday.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41No need to come in if you don't want to.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46I've made other arrangements.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Other arrangements?

0:10:48 > 0:10:52- Try something new in here. - You can't do that. - Yes, he can, darling.

0:10:52 > 0:10:58This is his place, and he can do whatever he wants.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59You'll know where to find me when you need me.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Put the box on now, Ty?

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Yeah, put the box on.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18I'm gonna crank it up some, see if we can draw some life in here.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23LOUD JAZZ MUSIC

0:11:31 > 0:11:33There it goes again.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Electricity don't like that jukebox.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45Must be a short circuit in the juke here.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49- Got to get the power company in here.- No, they turned my juice off last month.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52I don't want you sniffing around that splice out Maceo did.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55It's nice in here.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Kind of romantic.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00I'm gonna have to go out back, wiggle some things around.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04Don't you wiggle nothing round unless I'm there to see it.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07You don't worry, folks, bar's still open.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16Evening, folks.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23Evening, Sherriff.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27Your light's gone out.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28Looks like it.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32You'll know that'll be a violation of something or other.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34We're just about to close up here.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38Oh. Ooh, your wife been cooking?

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Not tonight.

0:12:40 > 0:12:41Went to a revival chat.

0:12:41 > 0:12:45Ah, I stood by there myself.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Them niggers were singing up a storm.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51I just came out here to look in on Toussaint.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55Had that shooting two nights ago.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57Lots of fighting in there.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00There is that.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Course, me and old Toussaint,

0:13:03 > 0:13:05we got us an agreement.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12Them field hands start sucking down that whisky,

0:13:12 > 0:13:16hopping them all up with music, there's gonna be some razors drawn.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21Course, he only call me if it's a fatality.

0:13:21 > 0:13:25Never been a killing here. Them youngbloods know better than to mess...

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Than to mess with Tyrone Purvis.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32You've got quite a reputation round here, Tyrone.

0:13:32 > 0:13:36People say you put some poor black boy in the grave.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Just people talking.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Uh-huh.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48You just remember,

0:13:48 > 0:13:50this is my county, Tyrone.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53What goes on goes on cos I let it.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Don't want nobody getting too big for their breeches round here.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03You folks have a pleasant evening.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Nigger ain't shit in this world.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20Speaking for yourself.

0:14:20 > 0:14:26You ain't had his club, Tyrone, what do you think you'd be?

0:14:26 > 0:14:28You wouldn't be nothing.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33If that ain't truth, then grits ain't grocery.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWS

0:14:51 > 0:14:55That's a terrible noise.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58Just the northbound Talladega. Sounds like it always does.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02Like a soul being carried away from this life.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09Come on in, darling,

0:15:09 > 0:15:11before you catch your death out here.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47You're lucky the high sheriff ain't seen you crawling out that boxcar.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51- Does he come around here much? - Only when he bored.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55- You working on a train? - Yeah, Kansas City to New Orleans.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57What did you get off here for?

0:15:57 > 0:16:00I got people here. How about you?

0:16:00 > 0:16:02Got tired of sleeping in a boxcar.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07Is there a place to stay around here?

0:16:07 > 0:16:08Shed right over there got a cot.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11And don't mind the rats. Not unless you've got food on you.

0:16:11 > 0:16:15I see you and a good meal have been strangers for some time.

0:16:15 > 0:16:20Get into town tomorrow, find you need something, tell them Shack Thomas sent you.

0:16:20 > 0:16:25- They'll know who you're talking about.- Thanks. What's the name of this town?

0:16:29 > 0:16:32Name like that sounds like a good place for a musician.

0:16:34 > 0:16:38Only night I ever been in jail was a town called Liberty.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40The sun come up, you'll see where you landed.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49You'd best be out that shed by first light.

0:17:06 > 0:17:10- Just a weekday night. - The chicken man or the ice man or the liquor man.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13At least you don't owe the electric company.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15Yeah, that's a big relief.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23You thinking about closing down?

0:17:31 > 0:17:34- What do you think? - The biggest act in New Orleans.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37- Got him a hit on the radio. - He's playing here Saturday night.

0:17:37 > 0:17:41I'm thinking I wait till Bertha Mae was gone and I put him up.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42Here?

0:17:42 > 0:17:45You mean like in this room here?

0:17:45 > 0:17:46You know the Tomcat Club in Texicana?

0:17:46 > 0:17:50- Big Jim Jameson's place? - It just went out of business.

0:17:50 > 0:17:57- Damn.- Since Sam is getting sway over to Tulsa, it means the date is open.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01- But you ain't never had no guitar... - I'm having one now.

0:18:04 > 0:18:08You just worry about getting these hung everywhere in the county tomorrow.

0:18:08 > 0:18:13Payday Saturday, he's gonna draw all them cotton pickers and soldier boys in here.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Get us back in the black.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17They're gonna take me down,

0:18:17 > 0:18:20it won't be without a fight.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22Guitar Sam at the Honeydripper!

0:18:22 > 0:18:24Mm-hm!

0:20:01 > 0:20:03GUITAR STRUMMING

0:20:09 > 0:20:12Somebody slipped in the railroad yard.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21You all can play that thing.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24Yeah, been doing it nearby for ever.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28What side of the tracks am I on?

0:20:28 > 0:20:30The wrong side.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32For you.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35What you doing here, then?

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Oh, white folks look right through me.

0:20:38 > 0:20:43Besides, how much mischief is an old, blind spook like me gonna get up to anyhow?

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Lot of people go for music around here?

0:20:47 > 0:20:51There's a couple of places just outside of town, at the crossroads.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54- A long walk?- Are you in a hurry?

0:20:57 > 0:21:02- How old is that box you're playing, pops?- Second one ever made.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06The devil got the first one. How about yours?

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Brand new. Made it myself.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12Ooh, brand new! Made it hisself!

0:21:12 > 0:21:14- Hot dog!- It's right.

0:21:14 > 0:21:18So, these clubs?

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Old Toussaint, he runs the Ace of Spades.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23They don't have no live music in there.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26Pine Top Purvis, he runs the Honeydripper Lounge.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29He don't care nothing about no guitar.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32- He won't allow one under his roof. - That don't make sense.

0:21:32 > 0:21:36Well, when a musician put his hand to murder,

0:21:36 > 0:21:40nine times out of ten a drummer done it.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43But Pine Top, he a piano man.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46- He killed somebody? - That's the story.

0:21:47 > 0:21:51But if you meet the man, you damn well don't be asking him about it.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02HONKING

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Ain't seen no mule in a long time!

0:22:19 > 0:22:23I knew this was Alabama, but that's the Stone Ages, man!

0:22:23 > 0:22:24Where you from, boy?

0:22:24 > 0:22:26Memphis.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Down on your vacation?

0:22:28 > 0:22:31Got in a piece of trouble up there with the white folks.

0:22:31 > 0:22:32Need to bide my time for a spell.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35Biding your time with them pills, man,

0:22:35 > 0:22:37boss man gonna fire your ass.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40Don't worry about that. I'm a cotton-picking fool!

0:22:41 > 0:22:43You a fool all right.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57- Where you from, brother bear? - Mississippi.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59Hoo! This here is a real step-up for you!

0:22:59 > 0:23:02Folks around here have discovered fire and whatnot!

0:23:06 > 0:23:10That trouble you in,

0:23:10 > 0:23:12have anything to do with running your mouth?

0:23:12 > 0:23:16It had to do with somebody getting on my nerves and I had to deal with him.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19Must have been somebody kinda puny.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21As I recall, he was about your size.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46- What's this place we at? - Nearest town's Harmony.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49This is Mr Silas Tugwell's place.

0:23:50 > 0:23:53- You better get to picking. - Cotton ain't going nowhere.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55The more you get first thing when the dew's still on it,

0:23:55 > 0:23:57the more it weighs when it tip that scale.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02You live here too?

0:24:04 > 0:24:06You got my sympathies.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18Hot damn!

0:24:18 > 0:24:21- What's the matter?- I got a shock.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23I thought you used to work for the power company.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26I drove the supply truck.

0:24:26 > 0:24:30Guitar Sam ain't gonna be playing by no candlelight.

0:24:32 > 0:24:33I smell bacon.

0:24:33 > 0:24:38You must have burned your porky ass with that electricity!

0:24:40 > 0:24:41Breakfast's ready!

0:24:43 > 0:24:45- Where your mama? - She already over to the mayor's.

0:24:45 > 0:24:50She told me to make sure you eat something before you start running 'round.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52That is a sweet woman you got.

0:24:52 > 0:24:56- You got one waiting for you if you want her.- Who, Nadine?

0:24:56 > 0:24:59She come in here every night making them cow eyes at you.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01She seem like a kind who could smother a man.

0:25:01 > 0:25:03She makes all her own clothes.

0:25:03 > 0:25:05Darlin', that's not the kind of thing

0:25:05 > 0:25:07a man cares about from a woman.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09MUSIC BLARES

0:25:09 > 0:25:11- Hey, I fixed it! - You ain't done no such thing.

0:25:11 > 0:25:15- It just decided to come back on. - Decided?- Yeah.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Just like it decided to switch off last night.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19You ain't even in the conversation!

0:25:19 > 0:25:23This Nadine makes some good money, too, sewing for people.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25That woman scares me.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Last ol' boy to give her a tumble,

0:25:27 > 0:25:31Napier Carpenter, she cooked for him.

0:25:31 > 0:25:35Fixed him up all kinds of nice, new clothes...

0:25:35 > 0:25:36I don't see no problem with that!

0:25:36 > 0:25:38Come four, five months, a man starts to...

0:25:40 > 0:25:43Sorry, China Doll, but this is just the way it is.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46A man gots needs.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49Looks like Nadine could take care of those, too.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52You eat chicken every morning, noon and night for five months,

0:25:52 > 0:25:56you get a taste for a different kind of meat.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01Maybe I shouldn't be talking about this in front of China Doll.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05You ain't gonna say something I haven't heard worse.

0:26:05 > 0:26:11Well, Napier goes out and has him a pork chop or two, let's say.

0:26:13 > 0:26:17Comes back one night from Toussaint's place,

0:26:17 > 0:26:20feeling no pain and smelling...

0:26:21 > 0:26:24..Like pork chops, the way a man will.

0:26:24 > 0:26:28He falls out on Nadine's couch and commenced to snore.

0:26:28 > 0:26:34Wake up next morning, find she had taken all his clothes off without him knowing.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36The man was dog drunk!

0:26:36 > 0:26:39Miss Nadine come back with a skillet in her hand,

0:26:39 > 0:26:40hot grits bubbling in it.

0:26:40 > 0:26:45Says, "Baby, I got your breakfast".

0:26:45 > 0:26:49"Oh, not this morning, Nadine", he says, sitting up.

0:26:49 > 0:26:51"Don't think I could eat a thing."

0:26:53 > 0:26:58"Well then", she says, "we can't let this go to waste, can we?"

0:26:58 > 0:27:03and she dumped that whole hot bubbling mess

0:27:03 > 0:27:06right in that man's lap.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Ouch!

0:27:08 > 0:27:15Then she got busy with that hot iron on his head.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18If screams didn't bring the neighbours in,

0:27:18 > 0:27:20she'd have killed that man.

0:27:20 > 0:27:21You've got to admit it though,

0:27:21 > 0:27:26the woman is an artist when it comes to that Singer machine.

0:27:26 > 0:27:27Excuse me.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32Which one of you is Mr Pine Top?

0:27:38 > 0:27:40We ain't hiring.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44I can play anything.

0:27:44 > 0:27:46I already got me a professional.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51Guitar Sam really comin' all the way down here?

0:27:51 > 0:27:53That so surprising?

0:27:53 > 0:27:56No, no.

0:27:56 > 0:28:00- Mr Shack Thomas told me... - You know Shack?

0:28:00 > 0:28:03We...travelled together.

0:28:03 > 0:28:07When was the last time you ate solid food, young man?

0:28:09 > 0:28:13Take him back and fix him something, China Doll.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16Standing there all hungry-eyed,

0:28:16 > 0:28:20puts me off my breakfast.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22That's real kind of you.

0:28:38 > 0:28:40Must've come in on the north-bound last night.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42Looks like he got the cooties too.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45Straw in them box cars, full of 'em.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47Never cared to travel that way.

0:28:47 > 0:28:51I was out there riding them rails between the wars.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53Hm...

0:28:53 > 0:28:55Seen black half of the country headin' west.

0:28:55 > 0:28:59Rode past the other half coming back east.

0:28:59 > 0:29:03Yeah, every one of us, scraping for the next meal.

0:29:05 > 0:29:08This is the place. Y'all can tear things down.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11Put things up. It's got a lot of potential.

0:29:11 > 0:29:16- It looks bigger than it does from the outside.- Can I help you, gentlemen?

0:29:16 > 0:29:20I'm just showing the man who gonna run this place what he got.

0:29:24 > 0:29:26This is my place.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45You owe 200

0:29:45 > 0:29:48to Lucky Hardaway up in Little Rock.

0:29:48 > 0:29:49He gonna get his.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52Pine Top...

0:29:52 > 0:29:55You missed last month's rent.

0:29:55 > 0:29:56After this weekend.

0:29:56 > 0:30:02After this weekend, you gonna be the same raggedy arse piano player

0:30:02 > 0:30:04who can't pay off his debts.

0:30:04 > 0:30:08Mr Simmons here, he's gonna be the new proprietor.

0:30:08 > 0:30:10Lucky give me two weeks.

0:30:10 > 0:30:13- Lucky got a better offer. - He can't do that.

0:30:15 > 0:30:17You don't think so?

0:30:19 > 0:30:23Whoa, now!

0:30:23 > 0:30:26What if we got our payments for him Monday?

0:30:26 > 0:30:28- Saturday night.- We can do that.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32Not just no taste.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35The whole 200.

0:30:35 > 0:30:40And I'll throw in a 25 cent tip for his messenger boy.

0:30:40 > 0:30:42In the meantime,

0:30:42 > 0:30:45we're not open yet.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47That means y'all trespassing.

0:30:52 > 0:30:54See enough, Mr Simmons?

0:30:54 > 0:30:56I believe I have.

0:30:59 > 0:31:03Somebody could do something with this place.

0:31:04 > 0:31:06Wouldn't take a whole lot of work.

0:31:11 > 0:31:15- We cleared over 200 that one weekend.- A couple of years back.

0:31:15 > 0:31:18And we didn't have no Luther on the guitar with the playing meter.

0:31:18 > 0:31:22- They say it draws them like flies. - That's what they say.

0:31:22 > 0:31:25They say first thing he does is go to the man that owns a joint,

0:31:25 > 0:31:28sticks out his hand and watch that cash money put in it.

0:31:28 > 0:31:30I already sent 50 to his manager.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32- How much you paying him all out? - Another hundred.

0:31:32 > 0:31:37- We need to clear 300!- What I figure is if we charge folks 2 to get in,

0:31:37 > 0:31:38then the liquor....

0:35:49 > 0:35:51Like playing music?

0:35:51 > 0:35:53My stepdaddy says that ain't a skill.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55It's an affliction.

0:36:30 > 0:36:32then I just happen in.

0:36:32 > 0:36:33We can't just ask Mr Skinner?

0:36:33 > 0:36:36Mr Skinner don't want nothing from coloured folk,

0:36:36 > 0:36:38but they buy his goods and shine his shoes.

0:36:38 > 0:36:41You go on ahead now.

0:37:12 > 0:37:15# Staggolee and Billy Lyons

0:37:15 > 0:37:18# Squabbling in the dark

0:37:20 > 0:37:24# Staggolee told Billy Lyons

0:37:25 > 0:37:28# "What do you think about that?

0:37:31 > 0:37:34# "First you take all my money

0:37:34 > 0:37:38# "Then you spits in my Stetson hat"... #

0:37:54 > 0:37:55Don't you be studying her.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01I heard tell you gonna put on a guitar man out at your place.

0:38:01 > 0:38:03Where you hear that?

0:38:03 > 0:38:05Oh... The breeze.

0:38:07 > 0:38:10Well, this time the breeze know what it's blowing about.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14You'd better be careful, Tyrone.

0:38:14 > 0:38:17Cos you know what them guitar players are like.

0:38:19 > 0:38:20You be careful yourself.

0:38:22 > 0:38:25# He shot him in the shoulder

0:38:27 > 0:38:30# Three times in the side

0:38:32 > 0:38:34# That's the last time he shot him

0:38:35 > 0:38:38# Poor Billy up and died

0:38:38 > 0:38:40# Up and died. #

0:38:45 > 0:38:47The time is ripe

0:38:47 > 0:38:49and the bill is passed due.

0:38:49 > 0:38:53You know Mr Roosevelt would've done it already, only he died.

0:38:53 > 0:38:56They don't listen to Miss Eleanor no more but Mr Truman,

0:38:56 > 0:39:00he's starting a band, especially now that we got this war heated up.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02Brother Randolph says...

0:39:02 > 0:39:07Here it comes! The gospel according to Randolph(!)

0:39:07 > 0:39:12- Tyrone! How you doing? - Oh, got my nose above the waterline.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15- Here's my baby.- What's up, Ty? - How your mama doing, China Doll?

0:39:15 > 0:39:17She doing fine, Uncle Shack.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20I'm just telling the boys here about how Brother Randolph

0:39:20 > 0:39:24pushing this deal how boys are gonna be a full part of the service.

0:39:24 > 0:39:25I carried a rifle in the Great War.

0:39:25 > 0:39:27Boys get in the middle of this Korea mess,

0:39:27 > 0:39:29they ain't gonna thank you for your efforts.

0:39:29 > 0:39:33If we want our full due in this country, we've got to go ho ho!

0:39:33 > 0:39:36Black folk shooting yellow folk to keep white folks happy?

0:39:36 > 0:39:39We need to move on from that kind of thinking.

0:39:39 > 0:39:43Move right on, Shack. Then come back and tell the rest of us how it is.

0:39:43 > 0:39:44LAUGHTER

0:39:46 > 0:39:49That's a hard headed man.

0:39:50 > 0:39:54- I'd have to ask Mr Skinner. - Of course you would.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57While you're at it, remind him how one of the reasons coloured folks come here

0:39:57 > 0:40:00is to get the low-down on what's happening.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03- China doll!- You gonna let us put up these posters, ain't you, Luther?

0:40:03 > 0:40:06I don't think that will be any problem at all.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10- That's awful nice of you, Luther. - You're looking special today.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12That's sweet of you to say.

0:40:12 > 0:40:14Maceo, you go with the man here,

0:40:14 > 0:40:16he'll show you where to put these up.

0:40:16 > 0:40:20Darling, we've got a lot of more places to go.

0:40:20 > 0:40:22Nice to see you, Luther!

0:40:29 > 0:40:32You've got that boy eating out of your hand!

0:40:32 > 0:40:35Luther is the only one didn't pull my hair,

0:40:35 > 0:40:37he sat behind me in Sunday school.

0:40:37 > 0:40:41I hope you got a little of that sugar left, cos we got to spare some on Miss Bertha Mae Spivey.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44- You gonna ask her to come sing again?- I'm gonna ask her for money.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47Word is, she got a whole pile of it squirrelled away.

0:40:47 > 0:40:51- Daddy...- Hey, come on, girl, we in a rush here.- I got to rest.

0:40:54 > 0:40:58Oh, I'm sorry, honey.

0:40:58 > 0:40:59You catch your breath, OK.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Yeah.

0:41:02 > 0:41:06So why Miss Spivey gonna give you money,

0:41:06 > 0:41:08if you won't let her sing at the club no more?

0:41:08 > 0:41:11- I'm gonna make her partner. - Partner in what?

0:41:11 > 0:41:12The Honeydripper.

0:41:12 > 0:41:17But all you ever say, it's just a hole you pour good money into.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19It don't matter. I'm gonna make her proprietor.

0:41:19 > 0:41:23Tress. Like waiter and waitress.

0:41:24 > 0:41:26Proprietress.

0:41:26 > 0:41:28She got to like the sound of that.

0:41:32 > 0:41:35Lovely ladies out to make a purchase.

0:41:35 > 0:41:38- Is that the same Guitar Sam is on the radio?- The very one.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40What does he look like?

0:41:40 > 0:41:45A fine looking man, a real lady killer from what I hear.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47Got that New Orleans style to him.

0:41:47 > 0:41:48Well, you ought to have a picture up there.

0:41:48 > 0:41:51We'll be getting some of those when he come in on the train.

0:41:51 > 0:41:55Main thing is, the man is electrifying

0:41:55 > 0:41:57and you know what that means.

0:41:57 > 0:41:59OK.

0:42:01 > 0:42:06Make like we just come by to see how how she keeping.

0:42:06 > 0:42:10Then I'll kind of mention I'd been thinking of bringing her on as a partner.

0:42:12 > 0:42:13Left the door open.

0:42:27 > 0:42:28She gone.

0:42:28 > 0:42:33Oh. When she going to be back?

0:42:35 > 0:42:36She just gone.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Woke up beside her.

0:43:01 > 0:43:02Oh, damn.

0:43:02 > 0:43:0424 years.

0:43:05 > 0:43:08China doll, go find your mama.

0:43:08 > 0:43:09She'll know how to fix up the body.

0:43:15 > 0:43:17Laugh and all but...

0:43:18 > 0:43:21..I've been with that woman 24 years.

0:43:23 > 0:43:25She gave me the only home I ever had.

0:43:29 > 0:43:31What am I gonna do now?

0:43:55 > 0:43:57What's your hurry, boy?

0:43:59 > 0:44:01No hurry.

0:44:02 > 0:44:03Take your hat off.

0:44:06 > 0:44:08Where you headed?

0:44:08 > 0:44:09I'm looking for work.

0:44:09 > 0:44:11You're not from around here?

0:44:11 > 0:44:13No, sir.

0:44:13 > 0:44:16Stranger wandering around, no job,

0:44:16 > 0:44:19that would make you a vagrant.

0:44:19 > 0:44:21But I'm looking.

0:44:23 > 0:44:25I got a job for you. Get in the back.

0:44:47 > 0:44:49I can always use another hand.

0:44:49 > 0:44:54Well, I caught this young fella in flagrant violation of the statutes -

0:44:54 > 0:44:57gawkery, with intent to mope.

0:44:58 > 0:45:00What's he going to run me?

0:45:00 > 0:45:033 a day, plus you feed him lunch.

0:45:03 > 0:45:06The sentence, that all depends on how long you're gonna need the help?

0:45:06 > 0:45:08I don't get any trial?

0:45:08 > 0:45:12Sure you do, boy, and a speedy one at that. Meet the judge.

0:45:12 > 0:45:14Judge Gatlin.

0:45:14 > 0:45:16Grab a sack.

0:45:20 > 0:45:23Oh dear, I believe it's about that time.

0:45:26 > 0:45:28- Would you care to join me? - No, thank you.

0:45:31 > 0:45:33Of course you won't join me, you don't partake.

0:45:33 > 0:45:36That was thoughtless of me.

0:45:36 > 0:45:38No, that's all right.

0:45:41 > 0:45:47So, you don't take spirits and what else in your church?

0:45:49 > 0:45:53- I'm sort of between churches right now.- Oh.

0:45:53 > 0:45:58I've been thinking about changing over to the Holiness,

0:45:58 > 0:46:00but I haven't been sanctified yet.

0:46:00 > 0:46:02Oh.

0:46:06 > 0:46:10There's been a minister in this week.

0:46:10 > 0:46:12The tent over by the fairgrounds?

0:46:15 > 0:46:18The church I was raised in, we were Pentecostals.

0:46:20 > 0:46:26They wouldn't have anything but the human voice inside the church.

0:46:26 > 0:46:29Dancing, any kind of dancing,

0:46:29 > 0:46:32music, card-playing.

0:46:32 > 0:46:33It was very strict.

0:46:36 > 0:46:38They took up serpents.

0:46:38 > 0:46:40I heard of that.

0:46:40 > 0:46:44I tell Floyd these stories, and he's... He's horrified.

0:46:45 > 0:46:49They have always been Methodists, Floyd's family.

0:46:49 > 0:46:52It can be a trial, married folks differ in their religion.

0:46:52 > 0:46:54And your husband is a...?

0:46:57 > 0:46:59Unaffiliated.

0:46:59 > 0:47:01Unaffiliated, I see.

0:47:04 > 0:47:07But he has his social club.

0:47:07 > 0:47:10- The Honeydripper? - That is such a colourful name.

0:47:10 > 0:47:12Yes.

0:47:15 > 0:47:20He must have a great deal of his energy to it.

0:47:20 > 0:47:22It's just him and Maceo Green runs it,

0:47:22 > 0:47:25I go over and cook some after I get off here.

0:47:25 > 0:47:31Well, that's very supportive of you, considering the sort of environment.

0:47:31 > 0:47:35I've been in those bar rooms most of my life, Miss Amanda.

0:47:36 > 0:47:38I see.

0:47:45 > 0:47:47I was a singer.

0:47:49 > 0:47:52I met Tyrone in the Paradise, down in Treefork.

0:47:52 > 0:47:54China doll was only two.

0:47:55 > 0:47:58And I was just...

0:47:58 > 0:48:01living alone, you know,

0:48:01 > 0:48:04drinking more than I ought,

0:48:04 > 0:48:06and then Tyrone...

0:48:07 > 0:48:10..Like a light, come into my life.

0:48:10 > 0:48:14People think things cos he owns the lounge,

0:48:14 > 0:48:16but they don't know him.

0:48:18 > 0:48:21Small minds are never in short supply.

0:48:22 > 0:48:24People in this town...

0:48:30 > 0:48:36I suppose they expected that Floyd, being from a prominent family,

0:48:36 > 0:48:41as prominent as is possible here in Harmony,

0:48:41 > 0:48:44would have chosen somebody more...

0:48:50 > 0:48:53In school, if you didn't have shoes...

0:48:59 > 0:49:02Oh, I forgot!

0:49:15 > 0:49:19I was going through some of Emily's old things the other day.

0:49:19 > 0:49:22I thought this would look just darling on your China Doll.

0:49:24 > 0:49:27Oh, I don't think that would near fit her, Miss Amanda.

0:49:27 > 0:49:29Why, how old is she, now?

0:49:29 > 0:49:3117.

0:49:32 > 0:49:34Oh, my...

0:49:36 > 0:49:39I must have lost track somewhere along the line.

0:49:39 > 0:49:4117?

0:49:41 > 0:49:44It was a very nice thought.

0:49:45 > 0:49:48Mama, mama, they need you...

0:49:50 > 0:49:51Oh, I'm sorry.

0:49:51 > 0:49:56- Miss Amanda, I didn't know you was home.- China Doll!

0:49:56 > 0:50:00We were just recalling how you used to play right here,

0:50:00 > 0:50:01under this table.

0:50:03 > 0:50:07There's not any cash money that I know of.

0:50:07 > 0:50:09She sold a good deal of the furniture,

0:50:09 > 0:50:13but there's still a nice looking couch in the parlour.

0:50:14 > 0:50:18Didn't care about too much,

0:50:18 > 0:50:21other than singing at the Pine Top's place.

0:50:21 > 0:50:23You're welcome to look around the house,

0:50:23 > 0:50:25if there's anything your missus might like.

0:50:25 > 0:50:28As long as it's not something personal to me and Bertha Mae.

0:50:28 > 0:50:31It's just...

0:50:32 > 0:50:34She's got to go out in style.

0:51:19 > 0:51:23- You ain't never done this job before? - Can't say I have.

0:51:24 > 0:51:30You want to set your pins out wide, bend over at the hip.

0:51:30 > 0:51:33Don't be bobbing up and down all the time.

0:51:33 > 0:51:35When you're up, be up.

0:51:35 > 0:51:38When you're on the roll, stay down.

0:51:38 > 0:51:41But most important,

0:51:41 > 0:51:43you got to get a rhythm.

0:51:43 > 0:51:48Everything in life got a rhythm, even pulling cotton off the plant.

0:51:48 > 0:51:52- Lay it out for me. - Not my rhythm, your rhythm.

0:51:52 > 0:51:56That's between you and the day and the work you got before you.

0:51:56 > 0:52:00Once you get it, don't let nothing or nobody push you off it.

0:52:00 > 0:52:02I'm going so slow.

0:52:02 > 0:52:05Are you getting paid by the pound or by the hour?

0:52:05 > 0:52:08I ain't getting paid at all, none of us are.

0:52:08 > 0:52:11I suggest you work that into your rhythm too.

0:52:11 > 0:52:14Let's see more picking and less talking over there.

0:52:14 > 0:52:15Getting right to it, boss.

0:52:34 > 0:52:36Them boys frying over there.

0:52:36 > 0:52:38That's just Gatlin's gang.

0:52:38 > 0:52:42He works them people from can into cane, every damn day.

0:52:42 > 0:52:44When the fields get picked, he bid 'em out to the neighbours.

0:52:44 > 0:52:46Harvest time come around here,

0:52:46 > 0:52:50you'd better sign with somebody fast, or get out of sight.

0:52:52 > 0:52:53I ate a pick of dust today.

0:52:53 > 0:52:55Why don't you get some water?

0:52:55 > 0:52:58The only thing that wash out the dust is whisky.

0:52:58 > 0:53:02Ain't enough whisky in this world to wash out what I swallowed in my life.

0:53:02 > 0:53:05- What are we playing for? - Two bits of ham.

0:53:05 > 0:53:07Woo! That's awful steep, ain't it?

0:53:07 > 0:53:10Well... I remember playing this game one night,

0:53:10 > 0:53:13Memphis's boss Crumpstown folks is gambling before they can walk,

0:53:13 > 0:53:15caught me a winning streak

0:53:15 > 0:53:18that cleaned out half the sporting men on Beale Street.

0:53:18 > 0:53:23I got up from that table, my money was long as train smoke.

0:53:23 > 0:53:24What happened to it?

0:53:26 > 0:53:29I spent it all on fine-looking women.

0:53:35 > 0:53:39- Yo, Mississippi! - His name is Hamilton.- Hambo!

0:53:41 > 0:53:43You want in on this?

0:53:43 > 0:53:45Settle up on pay day.

0:53:45 > 0:53:47That your deck of cards?

0:53:48 > 0:53:50What if it is?

0:53:50 > 0:53:53I'll stay clear of it then.

0:53:53 > 0:53:57- Are you insinuating?- I'm just saying, I don't want to play.

0:54:10 > 0:54:12Looks like dinner.

0:54:12 > 0:54:14A rabbit is a rodent.

0:54:14 > 0:54:16A man eat a rabbit, might as well eat a rat.

0:54:16 > 0:54:18Simple country nigger,

0:54:18 > 0:54:21afraid to sit down and lose a little handful of change.

0:54:21 > 0:54:24He awful big to mess with.

0:54:24 > 0:54:26Don't scare me none.

0:54:26 > 0:54:29I'm a stepping razor, man. I'm trouble on two legs.

0:54:32 > 0:54:35Your draw, Junebug. Don't be dripping no sweat on my cards.

0:54:35 > 0:54:38HONKING

0:54:38 > 0:54:39Excuse me folks!

0:54:42 > 0:54:44Look here!

0:54:44 > 0:54:49Y'all heard about the show we puttin' on at the Honeydripper.

0:54:49 > 0:54:51Saturday night.

0:54:51 > 0:54:53We got Guitar Sam!

0:54:57 > 0:55:00I expect there'll be a nice turnout for Bertha Mae tomorrow.

0:55:00 > 0:55:04Yes, folks who wouldn't have nothing to do with her when she was alive.

0:55:04 > 0:55:06Some of them, maybe.

0:55:06 > 0:55:08Still got to pay your respects.

0:55:10 > 0:55:13That Slick is gonna have to find him a new ride.

0:55:13 > 0:55:15That's a terrible thing to say.

0:55:15 > 0:55:17That's how the man gets over, is all.

0:55:17 > 0:55:22Always sugaring up to some woman who's got a job or a bankroll.

0:55:22 > 0:55:23That's no way to live.

0:55:25 > 0:55:26Society is in whirl, baby.

0:55:27 > 0:55:31A man's gotta walk through the gates of hell to get a piece of cheese.

0:55:34 > 0:55:36Not so young any more...

0:55:37 > 0:55:40..Lose hold of what little he's got.

0:55:40 > 0:55:42If you lose the club, I'm sure you'll find something else.

0:55:42 > 0:55:46In this town, like what?

0:55:46 > 0:55:50You know, any time you want, I could get Miss Amanda to ask...

0:55:50 > 0:55:52Watch your feet, Mr Mayor!

0:55:52 > 0:55:54I just done mopped the floor.

0:55:54 > 0:55:58Ty, you work so hard at the lodge, but what you bring in is...

0:55:58 > 0:56:02Not even as much as you make polishing that white lady's silver.

0:56:11 > 0:56:13I didn't say that.

0:56:13 > 0:56:14You didn't have to.

0:56:17 > 0:56:19It'll just have to work out, then.

0:56:23 > 0:56:25Meeting gonna start and I'm not there.

0:56:29 > 0:56:31Your soul's not the one needs saving, baby.

0:56:46 > 0:56:49It's all gonna be fine, Daddy.

0:56:49 > 0:56:52Everybody in town talking about Guitar Sam coming to Harmony.

0:56:54 > 0:57:01# As I walked all along this highway

0:57:02 > 0:57:05# I was seeking

0:57:05 > 0:57:09# My Lord each day

0:57:09 > 0:57:11# She left me standing

0:57:11 > 0:57:14# She left me standing

0:57:14 > 0:57:16# Out on this highway

0:57:16 > 0:57:25# Oh, just wondering which way I must go

0:57:25 > 0:57:27# She left me standing

0:57:27 > 0:57:29# She left me standing

0:57:29 > 0:57:31# Out on this highway

0:57:31 > 0:57:42# Oh, just wondering which way I must go. #

0:57:43 > 0:57:47Amen! Amen! Sing on, choir!

0:57:47 > 0:57:51Amen! Let the church say Amen.

0:57:51 > 0:57:52ALL: Amen!

0:57:52 > 0:57:53Amen!

0:57:53 > 0:57:56Let the church say Amen! Amen!

0:57:56 > 0:57:58ALL: Amen!

0:58:00 > 0:58:01Amen!

0:58:03 > 0:58:06She left him standing out on the highway,

0:58:06 > 0:58:09wondering which way to go.

0:58:09 > 0:58:11ALL: Yeah.

0:58:11 > 0:58:15The highway of life.

0:58:15 > 0:58:19Sisters and brothers, it will twist you and it will turn ya.

0:58:19 > 0:58:24It will run you this-a-way, and it will run you that-a-way.

0:58:24 > 0:58:25ALL: Yeah.

0:58:25 > 0:58:28Tempt you with many a detour.

0:58:28 > 0:58:29ALL: Yeah.

0:58:29 > 0:58:35Because the highway of life is designed to lead us astray.

0:58:35 > 0:58:36ALL: Yeah.

0:58:36 > 0:58:41That's not the road that we want to be on, brothers and sisters.

0:58:41 > 0:58:44That's not the path that we need to follow.

0:58:44 > 0:58:48We need to be on that other road.

0:58:48 > 0:58:54We need to be on that road that leads to glory.

0:58:54 > 0:58:58We need to be on that road that leads to the right hand of God.

0:58:58 > 0:59:00CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:59:01 > 0:59:04# That thoroughfare I'm talking about

0:59:04 > 0:59:09# That righteous road we need to travel

0:59:09 > 0:59:14# It's called the highway to heaven

0:59:14 > 0:59:18# It is called the highway to heaven

0:59:18 > 0:59:20# But we need to know, sisters and brothers

0:59:20 > 0:59:24# We need to know Who is walking beside ya.

0:59:24 > 0:59:27# You got to be wary of who is tryin'

0:59:27 > 0:59:30# To hold you back from your journey

0:59:30 > 0:59:34# Cos many a loved ones got to be left behind

0:59:34 > 0:59:39# Cos even on the road, you're lost in the wilderness

0:59:39 > 0:59:45# You're either headin' for glory or you're doomed for damnation

0:59:45 > 0:59:48# You're either with the Lord or you're with the devil.

0:59:48 > 0:59:50# And there ain't no in-between.

0:59:50 > 0:59:54# No, no, there ain't no in-between. #

0:59:54 > 0:59:57Praise the Lord!

0:59:57 > 0:59:59APPLAUSE

1:00:07 > 1:00:09- Charleston.- Yeah.

1:00:12 > 1:00:15- Tulsa.- Tulsa ain't so bad.

1:00:15 > 1:00:19- But for the spit. - Got them stockyards near the jail.

1:00:19 > 1:00:21Them flies.

1:00:21 > 1:00:24Course, I had me in a cell in Georgia once.

1:00:24 > 1:00:27Six other men, didn't have a one doing tall.

1:00:27 > 1:00:30- Must've got caught hoppin' one of them freights.- Yeah.

1:00:30 > 1:00:32Ain't no free ride allowed through Georgia.

1:00:32 > 1:00:35- And the food there?- Paltry. - Paltry ain't the word for it.

1:00:35 > 1:00:38Breakfast is a joke. And lunch is a rumour...

1:00:38 > 1:00:40And dinner was a anecdote!

1:00:40 > 1:00:43< Do it the hard way, brother!

1:00:43 > 1:00:46- You got locked in that box. - Or one just like it.

1:00:48 > 1:00:51# Wake up in the morning

1:00:51 > 1:00:53# Hear the bing bong ring

1:00:55 > 1:00:57# Walk up to the table

1:00:57 > 1:01:00# See the same damn thing

1:01:00 > 1:01:03# What am I gonna tell you

1:01:03 > 1:01:06# Fork, a knife, and a pan

1:01:06 > 1:01:09# If you say a thing about it

1:01:09 > 1:01:12# You in trouble with the man.

1:01:12 > 1:01:15# Let the Midnight Special

1:01:15 > 1:01:18# Shine its light on me

1:01:18 > 1:01:21# Well, let the Midnight Special

1:01:21 > 1:01:25# Shine its ever-loving light on me. #

1:01:25 > 1:01:26You a singer, young man?

1:01:26 > 1:01:28Yeah, I'm a singer.

1:01:28 > 1:01:29I'm a guitar player.

1:01:29 > 1:01:33I'm gonna be on the radio someday, people are gonna know my name.

1:01:33 > 1:01:36You keep on thinking that way, young man.

1:01:36 > 1:01:40If Judge Gatlin don't choose to work you into your grave,

1:01:40 > 1:01:42you just might do it.

1:01:52 > 1:01:55# If you ever go to Houston

1:01:55 > 1:01:58# Don't you stagger Don't you fight

1:01:59 > 1:02:02# Cos the sheriff will arrest you

1:02:02 > 1:02:05# You're in the cooler for the night

1:02:05 > 1:02:08# He'll tie your hands together

1:02:08 > 1:02:11# And he'll bring you down

1:02:11 > 1:02:14# Throw you in the black river

1:02:14 > 1:02:17# Penitentiary bound. #

1:03:09 > 1:03:11# Early this morning

1:03:13 > 1:03:16# I heard the lonesome church bell toll

1:03:25 > 1:03:27# Early this morning

1:03:27 > 1:03:31# I heard the low down church bell toll

1:03:39 > 1:03:42# It brought me the sad news

1:03:43 > 1:03:46# My Bertha Mae was dead and gone

1:03:54 > 1:03:57# Never miss my baby

1:03:58 > 1:04:02# I never missed her till she left my door... #

1:04:03 > 1:04:07First, he passed away, and the seed was no more...

1:04:10 > 1:04:13# I never missed my baby

1:04:13 > 1:04:17# Until she left my door

1:04:25 > 1:04:27# It breaks my heart

1:04:28 > 1:04:32# Think I never see her face no more. #

1:04:32 > 1:04:37He will dwell within, he will wipe every tear from their eyes.

1:04:38 > 1:04:44Death shall be no more, mourning and dying and pain shall be no more.

1:04:45 > 1:04:49To the first things that passed away,

1:04:49 > 1:04:52I am the Alpha and the Omega,

1:04:52 > 1:04:54the beginning and the end...

1:05:40 > 1:05:43I hear tell Miss Bertha Mae passed.

1:05:46 > 1:05:48That's right.

1:05:48 > 1:05:49Yeah, she lived it.

1:05:49 > 1:05:52Just like she sang it.

1:05:58 > 1:06:00You waiting on somebody?

1:06:05 > 1:06:09Ain't nobody on that train gonna change your luck, Tyrone.

1:06:09 > 1:06:12You're gonna have to save your own self.

1:06:12 > 1:06:14What do you know about anything?

1:06:14 > 1:06:17Oh, nothing much.

1:06:17 > 1:06:19But I know you.

1:06:19 > 1:06:21From way back.

1:06:21 > 1:06:24GUITAR STRUMS

1:06:29 > 1:06:31# Mm...

1:06:44 > 1:06:46# Oh...

1:06:46 > 1:06:48# Oh

1:07:07 > 1:07:10TRAIN HORN BLOWS

1:07:13 > 1:07:17TRAIN HORN CONTINUES

1:07:32 > 1:07:35Mournful end for a wayward sinner.

1:07:35 > 1:07:39She always seemed at peace with herself.

1:07:39 > 1:07:40The company she kept?

1:07:40 > 1:07:42The life she lived?

1:07:44 > 1:07:47I never know Bertha Mae to do hurt to a living soul.

1:07:50 > 1:07:52We're all hoping to see you get over

1:07:52 > 1:07:54and accept the Lord tonight, Delilah.

1:07:55 > 1:07:57I'm hoping so too.

1:07:57 > 1:08:01You've been lingering at the threshold long enough, sister.

1:08:01 > 1:08:02Time to step ahead.

1:08:41 > 1:08:44Tyrone! You got somebody getting off here?

1:08:44 > 1:08:47- Supposed to be. - Well, what's the party's name?

1:08:47 > 1:08:50Sam? Guitar Sam. Don't know his birth name.

1:08:50 > 1:08:52- He's coming here?- Uh-huh.

1:08:54 > 1:08:56Yo, Matt! Guitar Sam get on this train?

1:08:56 > 1:08:59Nah, man, he's in the hospital back in Little Rock.

1:08:59 > 1:09:01- Hospital?- You know music folks.

1:09:01 > 1:09:05Whatever he was doing, he must have been doing too much of it.

1:09:05 > 1:09:09Brother, maybe... Maybe he come on in tomorrow, huh?

1:09:11 > 1:09:12Matt!

1:09:16 > 1:09:18All aboard!

1:09:31 > 1:09:33Somebody didn't show up!

1:09:38 > 1:09:41We should have made you dumb instead of blind.

1:10:03 > 1:10:06# I done had my fun

1:10:08 > 1:10:11# If I don't get well no more

1:10:17 > 1:10:20# I said, I done had my fun

1:10:23 > 1:10:26# If I don't get well no more

1:10:33 > 1:10:35# My head is spinning

1:10:37 > 1:10:41# And I's going down real slow. #

1:10:55 > 1:10:57A man don't take care of himself...

1:10:59 > 1:11:03.. With drinking and jazz and women every night.

1:11:04 > 1:11:06Don't make no difference now.

1:11:08 > 1:11:10It got so bad,

1:11:10 > 1:11:15I heard there was this old boy goes round pretending to be Guitar Sam.

1:11:15 > 1:11:17Fill out the gigs he misses.

1:11:19 > 1:11:23He does pretty well for himself, what I hearing.

1:11:23 > 1:11:24Somebody we could find?

1:11:26 > 1:11:29Hell, I don't know, just some story I heard.

1:11:36 > 1:11:39Must have been the first one.

1:11:39 > 1:11:41First what?

1:11:41 > 1:11:45Back in slavery days, them's the one that work in the big house.

1:11:45 > 1:11:48Might not have had shoes always,

1:11:48 > 1:11:52the pants didn't have no holes in them, they didn't pick no cotton.

1:11:52 > 1:11:56- House niggers. - Yeah, that's how they call them.

1:11:56 > 1:12:00They had all their African kinds of instruments.

1:12:00 > 1:12:05Drums, shakers, some kind of banjo thing.

1:12:05 > 1:12:06But the piano...

1:12:06 > 1:12:10They didn't bring no piano over on those ships from Africa.

1:12:10 > 1:12:13The piano was just sitting there,

1:12:13 > 1:12:15in the white folks' big room, all polished up.

1:12:17 > 1:12:20I'd figure this...

1:12:20 > 1:12:22first one...

1:12:22 > 1:12:26He must have passed by 15, 20 times a day.

1:12:26 > 1:12:28Run the corner of his eyes over it.

1:12:28 > 1:12:30You see, he was there when they'd play.

1:12:30 > 1:12:32The masters.

1:12:32 > 1:12:35Their minuets.

1:12:35 > 1:12:39PLAYS A MINUET

1:12:46 > 1:12:51Him standing there, with a tray of white people's food.

1:12:51 > 1:12:54Pretending not to have a thought in his head.

1:12:54 > 1:12:57But he...

1:12:57 > 1:12:59He's watching them fingers.

1:12:59 > 1:13:02He's watching where them keys were.

1:13:02 > 1:13:05See, this old boy, the first one,

1:13:05 > 1:13:09he knows how to play all them kinds of African instruments.

1:13:09 > 1:13:12He could play mud if you gave him a key and a tempo.

1:13:12 > 1:13:15Yeah, he got music in his head and his heart.

1:13:15 > 1:13:19In every damn piece of him there's music.

1:13:19 > 1:13:21Then one day...

1:13:22 > 1:13:24..The master's away.

1:13:24 > 1:13:28And he alone in that room,

1:13:28 > 1:13:29with that piano.

1:13:29 > 1:13:31Watch out now.

1:13:31 > 1:13:32And he goes over

1:13:32 > 1:13:35and he sits down on the bench.

1:13:38 > 1:13:44And he spreads his fingers over it,

1:13:44 > 1:13:47the way he's seen that minuet player do.

1:13:47 > 1:13:49And he thinks...

1:13:50 > 1:13:52PLAYS CHORD

1:13:56 > 1:13:57And he thinks...

1:14:00 > 1:14:02.."Lord help me."

1:14:03 > 1:14:08"I could do some damage with this thing."

1:14:08 > 1:14:10I would have liked to have been there.

1:14:13 > 1:14:15I mean...

1:14:17 > 1:14:20Just to hear the cat play.

1:14:34 > 1:14:36Mace...

1:14:39 > 1:14:41I'm gonna lose my club.

1:14:41 > 1:14:47If old man Toussaint find out you stole his liquor,

1:14:47 > 1:14:49you're likely to lose more than that.

1:14:49 > 1:14:52I got no more cards to play.

1:14:52 > 1:14:56If you was to go down to see Lucky Hardaway in person...

1:14:56 > 1:14:59I ain't kissing up to no cokey-nose, coke-headed asshole!

1:15:07 > 1:15:10What the hell that supposed to be?

1:15:19 > 1:15:22Some kind of guitar.

1:15:22 > 1:15:24A guitar got a hole in it. That's how the sound come out.

1:15:24 > 1:15:29That boy must be three bricks shy of a load upstairs.

1:15:29 > 1:15:32- Daddy! They've gone and arrested him!- Arrest who?

1:15:32 > 1:15:35Sonny! The High Sheriff arrested him and sold him to Judge Gatlin!

1:15:35 > 1:15:37- Sonny who?!- Sonny that was here yesterday morning!

1:15:37 > 1:15:40Sonny that got a screw loose? That's why they arrested him!

1:15:40 > 1:15:44Mace? Play something on that, make some noise there.

1:15:44 > 1:15:46GUITAR STRUMS

1:15:47 > 1:15:50It's electric.

1:15:50 > 1:15:52I could plug a chunk of stovewood in a wall and it'd get more music

1:15:52 > 1:15:56- than you'd get out of that mess! - Nah, man.

1:15:56 > 1:16:00No, man, it don't work unless it's hooked up to the juice!

1:16:00 > 1:16:05See, you got the juice, you don't need the hollow inside that box.

1:16:05 > 1:16:11The music just runs straight from the strings, through the wire...

1:16:13 > 1:16:18..And out of your amplifier...

1:16:22 > 1:16:25..Which is what this thing must be.

1:16:25 > 1:16:27Sonny said he fixed radios in the army.

1:16:27 > 1:16:31Sonny didn't do nothing but feed bed bugs in anybody's army.

1:16:31 > 1:16:33And some of them caught in his head.

1:16:33 > 1:16:36I'm surprised he's even got the wit to pick cotton.

1:16:36 > 1:16:39Judge Gatlin done bought himself a drooling idiot.

1:16:39 > 1:16:42- What you gonna amplify a guitar for anyway?- Daddy?

1:16:42 > 1:16:45Unless you're gonna sit over in your chair

1:16:45 > 1:16:48- and play those little Charlie Christian riffs.- Aside, man.

1:16:48 > 1:16:51Sitting over there, looking all clean and polite.

1:16:51 > 1:16:53The guitar ain't been up front,

1:16:53 > 1:16:56since those old pissing moan blue shouters

1:16:56 > 1:16:59sit their blind asses on the corner hollering for pennies!

1:16:59 > 1:17:00- Old-time music.- Daddy?

1:17:00 > 1:17:03Sonny didn't do nothing to get arrested for.

1:17:03 > 1:17:05He was just looking for work.

1:17:05 > 1:17:09They've hung coloured boys for less than that, darling.

1:17:09 > 1:17:13Least on the work gang they feed them, keep their strength up.

1:17:13 > 1:17:15But he doesn't belong there.

1:17:15 > 1:17:20You know, Guitar Sam plays him an electric.

1:17:20 > 1:17:24But I don't think it's this no-hole kind of deal.

1:17:24 > 1:17:27Hope he plugs it into the wrong socket some night

1:17:27 > 1:17:30and electrocutes his sorry, no-show ass.

1:17:32 > 1:17:34Mace?

1:17:35 > 1:17:43Now, if he showed up here and our power went out again,

1:17:43 > 1:17:44while he was playing...

1:17:44 > 1:17:46Nah, I fixed it good this time, Ty.

1:17:46 > 1:17:48Eh...

1:17:48 > 1:17:51So he comes out, and he plugs his axe into the wall...

1:17:51 > 1:17:54He'd come out looking good, from what I hear!

1:17:54 > 1:17:58All kinds of spangly pants and jacket!

1:17:58 > 1:18:00Got his name spelt out on the back!

1:18:01 > 1:18:04- The clothes, right?! - All slick and shiny!

1:18:04 > 1:18:06Flash them gold teeth at them gals!

1:18:06 > 1:18:08Got his sax man behind him.

1:18:08 > 1:18:11Maybe a piano, harmonica and drums.

1:18:11 > 1:18:14Hey, you remember that night at the Esquire Club,

1:18:14 > 1:18:16when the lights went out in Mobile?

1:18:16 > 1:18:18Yeah, and they took off with the gate.

1:18:18 > 1:18:21Just stole the damn register right off the counter!

1:18:21 > 1:18:23They didn't hold Reggie Porter for it, did they?!

1:18:23 > 1:18:26Nah! They knew it was this place got robbed!

1:18:26 > 1:18:29Did nobody hold it to Reggie Porter?

1:18:29 > 1:18:33And nobody expected their money to come back.

1:18:33 > 1:18:35No, cos they was too busy diving for the pot

1:18:35 > 1:18:37and that trump game got interrupted.

1:18:37 > 1:18:41And nobody suspected that it might have been Reggie Porter hisself!

1:18:41 > 1:18:45Hisself that pulled the lights!

1:18:47 > 1:18:48No.

1:18:48 > 1:18:50No, Ty. No.

1:18:50 > 1:18:51No. No. No.

1:18:51 > 1:18:55China Doll! You mind the place till we get back. Hey, come on, Mace.

1:18:55 > 1:18:57Where you going, Daddy?!

1:18:57 > 1:19:01I promised the people Guitar Sam, and they're going to get Guitar Sam!

1:19:01 > 1:19:03Come on, Mace, let's get out of here!

1:19:03 > 1:19:04We've got work to do.

1:19:10 > 1:19:13Why are you so interested in this boy?

1:19:13 > 1:19:14Got a job for him.

1:19:16 > 1:19:19You must be doing pretty well for yourself out there, Tyrone.

1:19:19 > 1:19:21You're hiring new people on.

1:19:21 > 1:19:24Passing well, yeah.

1:19:24 > 1:19:27- But this boy...- Name is Sonny.

1:19:27 > 1:19:29Uh-huh.

1:19:29 > 1:19:32Well, he's paying off his debt to society right now.

1:19:32 > 1:19:35If I was to pull him out of the field...

1:19:35 > 1:19:38Judge Gatlin paid for your day of prison labour.

1:19:39 > 1:19:43You willing to pay for him for the duration of his sentence?

1:19:43 > 1:19:45- Which might be? - As long as I care to make it.

1:19:48 > 1:19:51Well, I was counting on...

1:19:51 > 1:19:54more of a one-time deal.

1:19:54 > 1:19:58- If I can rent him out just for the weekend.- 50.

1:20:00 > 1:20:01It's not just the money.

1:20:01 > 1:20:06There's legalistic principles involved here. Public safety issues.

1:20:06 > 1:20:08I'll pay you Sunday morning.

1:20:08 > 1:20:11You going to pay me now, or you can forget about it.

1:20:13 > 1:20:14I don't have it now.

1:20:14 > 1:20:16Hm.

1:20:17 > 1:20:22You think you're too smart for the rest of us, don't you, Tyrone?

1:20:22 > 1:20:24Think you can go it all by yourself.

1:20:27 > 1:20:28You'd rather eat roofing nails

1:20:28 > 1:20:31than come to me for a favour now, wouldn't you?

1:20:31 > 1:20:34It's not a favour if I'm gonna pay for it.

1:20:34 > 1:20:36Oh, you're gonna pay all right.

1:20:37 > 1:20:41If you don't hand over that money to me by Sunday morning,

1:20:41 > 1:20:43you've got yourself a new partner.

1:20:48 > 1:20:50Same deal as I got with Toussaint.

1:20:50 > 1:20:51What'll that be?

1:20:55 > 1:20:57You'll get the 50.

1:20:58 > 1:21:01And that wife of yours.

1:21:01 > 1:21:04- Delilah?- Mm-hm.

1:21:05 > 1:21:07Them fried chicken sandwiches.

1:21:07 > 1:21:12If I was to come by now and then and check in on my interests?

1:21:14 > 1:21:17She be happy to fix you whatever you want.

1:21:17 > 1:21:21Good. Cos my wife's cooking would gag a maggot.

1:21:21 > 1:21:26- Different people got different kinds of talent.- Yeah.

1:21:26 > 1:21:28Well Lurleen ain't discovered what hers is yet.

1:21:28 > 1:21:30Let's go fetch that boy.

1:21:46 > 1:21:48- Is this the one you want?- Mm.

1:21:51 > 1:21:55You got any ideas about running rabbit on me, best get rid of them now.

1:21:55 > 1:21:57- Are you paying my way out? - Till Monday.

1:21:57 > 1:21:59How come?

1:21:59 > 1:22:02You like dragging that cotton sack?

1:22:02 > 1:22:05- No.- Then don't ask questions.

1:22:23 > 1:22:27# Why don't you do right

1:22:27 > 1:22:30# Like some other men do... #

1:22:30 > 1:22:32This size, right?

1:22:32 > 1:22:34But it's got to shine.

1:22:34 > 1:22:37- And when you need this?- Tonight.

1:22:37 > 1:22:41- That's a tall order. - It's got to happen.

1:22:41 > 1:22:48You know, I do my best work, my fastest work,

1:22:48 > 1:22:50when I'm happy.

1:22:50 > 1:22:55Yeah, I suppose you do.

1:22:56 > 1:22:59You gonna make me happy, baby?

1:22:59 > 1:23:01Uh...

1:23:02 > 1:23:05You come down by the club tonight.

1:23:05 > 1:23:10We having a special show. Tell 'em at the door, you my guest.

1:23:10 > 1:23:13Food ain't the only thing a woman needs three times a day.

1:23:13 > 1:23:17(It wouldn't hurt you to skip a few meals.)

1:23:17 > 1:23:18What's that, baby?

1:23:18 > 1:23:24Um, that boy gonna need time, try this jacket on, see how he feels.

1:23:24 > 1:23:25Later, Nadine.

1:23:44 > 1:23:46You got to do something to the boy's hair, darling.

1:23:46 > 1:23:50They may not know what the real Sam looked like, but it ain't this.

1:23:50 > 1:23:52I can try.

1:23:52 > 1:23:54What exactly am I supposed to do?

1:23:54 > 1:23:57You're gonna stand up there with that contraption you got,

1:23:57 > 1:23:59and play Guitar Sam's numbers.

1:23:59 > 1:24:01I can do that with my eyes closed.

1:24:01 > 1:24:04If we can get the audience to close theirs, we'll be better off.

1:24:04 > 1:24:06Ty! I tracked Mr Trenier down.

1:24:07 > 1:24:10Let's hit it.

1:24:10 > 1:24:12Bye, Daddy.

1:24:28 > 1:24:31You know what you're doing?

1:24:31 > 1:24:34I fix Mama's hair all the time.

1:24:34 > 1:24:37But you ain't been to that school yet.

1:24:37 > 1:24:39You go to school to learn your guitar?

1:24:41 > 1:24:42No.

1:28:34 > 1:28:36He took the same 2 off yours.

1:28:36 > 1:28:40Yeah, but you could pave a highway with the rocks I threw in that mess.

1:41:12 > 1:41:15but it always comes back to nip at me later.

1:41:15 > 1:41:19It's important not to bite off more than you can chew.
