years ago when you walked out on me I

said to myself I never want to see you

change my mind now like I told you I

wanted to get a look at you well now I

have Alice I'll look you up again in

about eight years or so Matt I reckon I

was a little hard on you I still think

you're done wrong and coming back but

way it does don't give me the wrong son

I ain't no coward fight if there's a

good reason to fight but old Leroy's

spouting off at the mouth ain't no

reason for me to do something I don't

want to do a good time as any of you

learn some respect for them baby you a

nanny get up in the tree hurry up

you take Coon or Fox or almost any

animal let's just soon stay away from

people even a bobcat and run if he's got

one reason why the good Lord ever

created sugars you know there's always a

chance that milk train might be on time

Mama's waiting for us

[Music]

[Music]

Abraham get the bucket on the back there

mighty thoughtful of old man Haley to

have his water trough right up here the

top of the hair like this oh excuse me

Annie Annie you children stay out of

your father's way skits so he can't even

walk would you want to put all the time

I don't mind this Oh Annie I almost

forgot

I got yourself gee it's a French heart i

noticed that sometimes when your mama

calls you you don't act like it here or

she can't tell so if you hear you blow

on that once well I'm at that's a right

good idea well any ever be able to talk

mom you ask too many questions son is it

a secret boy you can't talk I told you

it's an act of God now I don't want you

to ask about it again but he will ask

again best

he'll keep right on asking and Annie

dad's too if she if she could so I think

it's only fair that we give him an

answer now no Matt not yet Annie would

you like to know why you can't talk like

other folks

Matt please I mean come on honey listen

to me

I'm warned you they in a very pretty

story and I'm gambling quite a bit

telling you in the first place it wasn't

no act of God like you always been told

God give you a voice just like everybody

else when you're a year old I thought

it's the most powerful voice I'd ever

heard before he was two years old you

you could talk a little cuz I couldn't

understand much what he said but to your

mom I was greater than the Gettysburg

Address but yeah

your Papa wasn't much good he got a real

good deal when he married your mama he

got a pretty girl real nice little farm

taught in the Boone but he wasn't

grown-up enough to appreciate it so he

let the farm run down and he made the

pretty girl stop loving him he didn't

care he didn't have sense enough to care

just so long as he had another Jarra

whiskey around someplace

then in one night he came by the church

to pick up you and your mom he bent over

with them fun-loving boys at Long's

camping the mama thought he was a little

too drunk to drive and she wanted to

take the wheel but

he insisted me he always got his way

maybe because he was bigger and stronger

[Music]

maybe because she loved him too much

anyway I run the car off the road over

red oaks corrected

your mom and me walked away from the

wreck unhurt

you've never uttered a sound since so if

you want to start hating me you better

do it right now before you before you

get to liking me too much

[Music]

man anything wrong No

there's nothing on

this can't sleep

do you want me to fix you some coffee

[Music]

bitch

[Music]

no Matt Besser

verse Matt please what's the matter

honey

I may as well look you right in the eye

when I see this what you done to me and

the kids was a bad thing Matt a real bad

thing but I reckon you've done some

paying for it before you come home and

I'll allow since you've been here you

acted right manly but I've been lonely a

terrible long time met and you only been

good a couple of months how do I know

you won't get Restless again yeah I

guess you don't know this I know I want

but I guess there's no way for you to

know it I hope you won't but I can't

help being scared at times maybe I'll

get over being scared I think I have a

little but

let's wait a spell for my sake let's be

sure everything's right

goodnight this

[Music]

and I tell you I know from actual

observation that red liquor and

Christianity can't live in the same hide

at the same time but there's always that

man who claims he can control him I can

take a drink he says oh I can let it

alone amen ha brothers remember the

scripture wine is a mocker strong drink

a brawler and he that herethe therein is

not wise and brothers and sisters I tell

you something funny a lion cub is a good

pet just like a kitten so long as he's

accursed

but when he grows up he'll destroy you

and brothers and sisters it's the same

with alcohol you can control it at first

but someday it'll destroy you I don't

drink

and that's the reason Solomon admonishes

look not on the wine when it is red and

it's sparkling in the glass when it

goeth down smoothly for at the last it

bite it like a serpent and stingeth like

an adder amen

now we are saying hymn number 83 God

moves in a mysterious way hymn number 83

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]
