I remember it all very well lookin' back. It was the summer that I turned eighteen. We lived in a one-room, run down shack. On the outskirts of New Orleans.
I pick up my smile, put it in my pocket. Hold it for a while, try not to have to drop it. Men are not to cry, so how am I to stop it?. Keep it all inside, don't show how much she rocked ya.
Just outside of delta country. Where the bitter weeds growin wild. Born seven miles outside of Woodland. Was a Chicasaw County child. . An Poppa done brung us some peppermint candy.
Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you. You're so like the lady with the mystic smile. Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have blamed you?. For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?.
The sun began to get busy. Trying to find the way. The storm was upping the ante. It was time to make a play. He was sure his plan was perfect. He was sure he would win.
Here are some samples of the fabric, Miss Morgan. I know how painful it must be. But I guess it's your responsibility. I understand he was your fiancee.

Billy the kid I understand you. It really ain't your fault that the west is so wild. Billy the kid cain't reprimand you. You must have been deprived when you was a child.
I'm taken aback. But still I let it ride. No sudden movements. I ease my hand real slow. Then my hands are like lightning. And the bullets start to fly.
Beverly packs her lunch pail silently. In the light of the dawn's gray gloom. In her lonely room. . Beverly works all day at the factory. On her feet from five to nine.

We climb slowly out from under the rock. We were hiding. To greet the sun as it leaves the sky. On the cycle, it were riding. . And we stand new. Beneath the blanket of stars.
