He's a rodeo cowboy.

He follows the circuits where top monies pay.

That's where he'll be found.

The only thing he owns is a horse and silver saddle.

Rodeo cowboy, he'll never settle down.

Thank you.

You people have always been so kind to me at the saddle bar.

You know, I think they deserve something special.

Can we sing you a new song, a brand new song?

Let's do Racky Love, OK?

Listen, we haven't even really recorded this yet.

We're going to record it later this week, so first time's for you, OK?

OK.

I've had enough of this old world.

I hate him to know this old world It can go up and down, but I fail

Love keeps it turning, turning Here's the fire that fills my desire

In moments my name is plain You made it!

You noticed?

I wonder if with that blonde tucked to hair on the top of the head, it wouldn't always

you.

What are you doing, impersonating a temp?

I'm not sure, but true Give someone your love and it comes back to you

What's that, Indian?

I didn't know they allowed Indians on a hillbilly joint like this.

Country stars, country!

Give your all when the sun goes down to your man

You know, it's all the same, caverns, truck stops, gear bottles, broken hearts.

You're American.

Listen, if you don't shut up, one of these good old boys is going to do more than break

your heart.

Well, I had you know if I was on a case right now, I wouldn't get caught dead in a hillbilly

joint like this.

Well, just be sure you don't get dragged out that way.

Oh, well, whatever.

It's country stars, country!

Whatever!

You can hear someone say what they had's gone bad And the feeling is dying

How you doing?

How you doing?

No, thank you. You go ahead.

Drink up, old man.

Looks better that way.

Nobody gives a damn for anybody except number one.

It's a tired old circus.

And the music and the merry-go-round is all out of tune.

I'm gonna do you a favor.

Reason for purpose, reason for living, reason for dying.

Weed music, old man.

Yes?

Give me Quincy 96415.

Hello.

I killed an old man in an alley this morning, Sue Ann.

You what?

I said I killed an old man.

And it's your fault.

I told you not to call the police.

Now, I want you to get $10,000 in cash.

Put it in a paper bag.

The tennis court's three blocks north of your hotel.

There's an orange trashed receptacle on the corner.

At 2 o'clock, put the paper bag of money in it.

Then walk away.

Hey, listen, you gotta be nuts.

You just do what I'm telling you.

And no police this time or somebody else is gonna get killed.

Hey, wait a minute.

Hello, give me the police.

Yeah, it's an emergency.

Hey, good afternoon.

Joe?

Good afternoon.

Sue Ann?

How's the country of war with them?

Oh, OK.

Well?

Well, they found an old derelict.

Shot to death this morning in a downtown alley.

Oh, my God.

Sue Ann, it was on radio and teleprompters.

We could have just heard it.

Uh-uh, no.

He told me he did it.

He admitted it to me.

Yeah.

Well, psychos read something in the newspaper,

they see it on television, they hear it on the radio,

and they take credit for it.

Sue Ann, the best way to learn the truth is to find the man.

Hey, I don't even want to try to find him.

I just want to take the money to that park and give it to him,

and maybe that'll be the end of it.

That won't be the end of it.

You pay now, and you keep on paying.

Well, maybe there's another way to go.

At least you could let us help you set up the payment.

Then we can move on to man.

He said no police, man.

What if somebody got hurt?

What if something went wrong?

I don't want to kill anybody else.

Sue Ann, you didn't kill anybody.

Yeah, well, maybe not, but I, uh, I feel like I did.

Hey, there was a time a few years ago

when $10,000 would have meant everything to me.

You know, you remember.

But, uh, I can afford it.

I've been down almost as low as this guy.

I understand him. I know how he feels.

Maybe if I, uh, give him the $10,000,

it'll kind of, uh, even things out for me, you know?

I mean, maybe I do.

I kind of owe it.

Well, first you owe it to yourself.

Now, if you want to do the man some good,

why don't you let us take him into custody?

We've got experts who can deal with people like that.

He's right. You know it.

Well, you won't hurt him.

Well, we'll sure try not to.

That you can count on.

Might give him a bloody nose.

Okay. Yeah.

Let's go.

Did I get it?

I would.

Okay. Yeah.

You?

Fine.

How did he know?

He got me.

Oh, my God.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Oh, maybe he had an aversion to blue and yellow.

Let's go.

That's your love all around me, old man.

That's your love all around me, old man.

Okay. That was a good one.

I think that ought to do it.

Yeah. Hey, thanks, Harry.

Let me hear it back, okay?

Yeah.

You guys go ahead.

I'll catch you at the club.

Eat a hamburger for me.

Maybe we'll bring you one later.

Yeah, okay.

Hey, that guitar is great.

See you later, Simon.

Yeah. Anytime, baby.

Hey, don't you know this old world

It can go up and down

But I fell

Hey, what's wrong, Harry?

You know what's wrong, Sue Ann.

You sing so well, like you really care about people.

But you don't.

It's another lie.

You can't be trusted. You don't care.

I told you not to bring the police into it.

Hey, I didn't want to, man. I really...

You didn't want to? What do you mean you didn't want to?

They were there.

I thought I was doing the right thing.

Killing me?

You're not going to kill me?

I'm not going to kill you.

I thought I was doing the right thing.

Killing me? Is that what you think's right?

Is that what you mean?

No, you don't understand.

You don't even remember me, but you want me dead.

You don't remember me, do you?

How many people have you used and forgotten, Sue Ann?

How many, Sue Ann?

How many?

I made a promise to you.

You broke that promise.

You told those cops to kill me.

I'm going to punish you for that.

You hear me?

I'm going to punish you again.

You get that money back.

You put it in your purse.

Next time you hear from me,

you'll be ready to give it to me.

You'll be ready to show it.

And no more cops.

No more money.

No more money.

No more money.

No more money.

No more money.

No more money.

Love keeps it turning.

Love keeps it turning.

He is the fire that fuels my desire.

He is the fire that fuels my desire.

A woman's money.

A woman's money.

I shouldn't have let you try it.

I was afraid something like this was going to go well.

Look, honey, they were playing it the only way they could.

I know, Cal.

I'm not blaming anybody.

Except maybe me.

Wait a minute.

Sue Ann, you're the victim here.

And don't forget that.

Yeah.

The victim's got rights, too.

It's my business, myself.

No, I know you're just doing your job.

I know you're doing the best you can,

but I've got to keep you out of it.

I just don't want to let anybody else get hurt

just because I'm trying to save $10,000.

Now, this guy said...

He said that I don't care about people.

Maybe if I can convince him he's wrong,

he'll stop.

He's not going to stop as long as you guys are in this,

so just stay out of it, okay?

Please.

Stay out of it.

I'll do her.

Cal, we have to stay on this thing now.

I know.

I must admit, I don't understand it myself.

She's a little girl.

She feels guilty about the fact that

she's happier than anybody else.

You know, something about this whole thing

is troubling me.

In that recording studio, to do what he did,

that guy had to know something about that engineer's board.

I mean, that's a complicated item.

So?

So that means that we know at least three things about him.

We know that he knows something about recording studios,

we know that something's wrong with his voice,

and we know he's from Pittsville, South Carolina.

North Carolina.

So?

So maybe the local police there might know something about him.

Get on that.

I want you to get the local sheriff.

Sheriff!

I don't think about you too much

And I'm not too sure why I thought of you now

Time has a way of numbing the touch

But I still recall when you left me

How much it hurt me to stand there

Just watching you leave

I couldn't believe it was true

After moments we shared

And the souls that we bared

I've never loved anyone more

But like I said

And for all of the pain I would love you again

I've never loved anyone more

And for all of the pain I would love you again

I've never loved anyone more

That's Miss Sue Ann Granger live here at the Saddleball.

Anything?

Nothing.

It's ringing.

Hello?

Sue Ann!

I've got an ID card.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Hello?

Sue Ann!

I've got an ID card in my hand.

Mr. John Kellum.

Hutch, he's on.

I took it out of his wallet a little while ago.

Right after we killed him.

We?

What do you mean, we?

I told you!

You had to be punished!

Your latest victim is lying by the fountain in Emerson Park.

Now maybe you'll believe me.

And if you don't tell the police to stay away

there'll be somebody else.

Now keep that money in your purse.

You'll be hearing from me.

Hey, listen.

He didn't stay on long enough.

Look, you see that Miss Granger

gets back to the hotel.

Stay with her till you're relieved.

What?

Found her in Emerson Park.

Before, nothing I hope.

The driver's license is John Kellum.

How are we gonna tell Sue Ann this time, huh?

Gently.

Jerry Taber.

Pittsville, Nicaragua.

Is that the guy we chased in the park?

I don't know.

I think so.

Sheriff says he owned the only radio station in town.

He was always drinking.

He was always drinking.

Getting into fights.

Finally got stabbed in the throat.

His voice.

Right. When I mentioned his voice

Sheriff put it together right away.

Yeah, but what's the connection to Sue Ann?

He doesn't know of any.

Are you having any copies of those made?

Yeah.

They'll be ready in a half hour.

And how many men can we spare?

Maybe six beside yourself.

For the whole city?

No, that's not many.

It's better than none at all.

Hello?

This was dropped off from Miss Granger.

Just a moment.

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

What is it?

It's nothing.

Listen, Cal, I'm not really hungry.

You go ahead and have breakfast without me.

I think I'm just going to do some shopping.

It's from him, isn't it?

Just have your breakfast, Cal.

Come on, Sue Ann. You can't be doing this.

You know that.

Two people have already been killed, Cal.

Sue Ann, he'll kill you.

Okay, Fireball.

Jump to me.

Strike!

Oh!

Strike!

Hey, Fireball, what's happening?

How you doing, Fireball?

Hi, you fellas. I haven't seen you around quite a while.

I got you in the paper, and you're doing just fine.

I'll get Cal. What you got?

We got three balls and two strikes, and maybe the whole ball game.

Yep.

Fireball here thinks he saw the cat you're looking for.

You seen this guy, Fireball?

Yeah.

Where?

Listen, fellas, I ain't got no time to be talking

because I got man alone, and I'm facing Maris with the lone cow.

Well, look, Fireball, I'm going to keep a close eye on Mantley's on second.

He's not moving the muscle.

Look, you need some eyeglasses.

Why's that?

Because he's already stowed third.

Mantle? Yeah.

He ain't never been that fast.

Look, I want to keep an eye on Mantle on third.

Just tell us when you saw this guy, all right?

I saw him this morning. Where?

Coming out the hotel down there.

You sure? Look, Starscream, with these eyes of mine,

you ever know me to be wrong?

What I mean is, who sees things like I see things?

Nobody, Fireball.

Nobody.

Watch your man on third. He's going to steal home.

Give him a hand.

All right, how's it?

Oh, yeah! Strike three, game.

That a great game, Fireball.

Sorry, Mick.

That was a ball. That was a strike.

It was a ball. You're blind, now.

Super 3, Super 3, come in, please.

Go ahead, Captain.

Just heard from Cal. Sue Ann got another phone call from Jerry Tabor.

She's gone off to meet him. Only he doesn't know where.

Maybe with a little luck we just found out.

What's the news, man?

Where's all work clothes? Jeans, boots?

Yeah, he's a guy in 311.

But he went out. When was that?

About 20 minutes ago.

You have a car? No, he had me down in a cab.

You have a list of any other calls he might have made?

Sure, we have to for charges.

Which cab company did you call for?

Imperial.

Thank you.

Hello?

Hello?

Is anybody here?

Please, I need to talk to you.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Please.

Hello?

Hello?

Hey, is anybody here?

Hello, Sue Ann?

I brought the money.

Come here.

Come closer.

You still don't remember me?

You do look kind of familiar.

You're lying.

No, really. Stop it!

Listen, I brought the money.

I've got it right here.

You remember Pitchville?

I think I was there.

You think?

I'll tell you, you were.

I had a little wonder.

I was just wondering.

You were.

I had a little one-man radio station.

You brought me your first record.

I played it all the time.

I helped you.

Yeah, I think I do remember.

About four years ago?

Here, just take the money.

I played that record all the time

at the station, at Tommy's.

Tommy's?

Tommy's Tavern.

I put a lot of money in that old jukebox.

Always your record.

One guy got mad about it.

We got into a fight. He pulled a knife on me.

I was gonna be a singer, too. You were gonna help me.

I got this because I was loyal to you.

Your voice?

Yeah, I lost my voice because of you.

And so I lost my station, too.

People said I sounded ugly.

I lost all of it, all of it because of you.

Hey, I'm sorry.

Sorry?

All of a sudden, you're sorry?

No, no.

I'm sorry. I hurt.

It takes time.

I've had a lot of that.

Here.

Here's $10,000. It's just what you asked for.

It's all in cash.

You're not gonna believe me, I guess,

but the money really doesn't mean anything to me.

I really hope it helps you.

Okay?

Where are you going?

Back into the house. I can't let you do that.

But I gave you the money.

I gave you everything.

But you know who I am. You'll tell the police.

No, I won't. I promise.

No, this is between you and me.

Sit down!

If you paid in the beginning,

if you hadn't made us kill those two people,

I maybe wouldn't have to do this.

But you're just like everybody else.

You don't care. You use people.

And then forget them.

I'll kill her!

Get back! I'll kill her!

Throw down your guns and get outside!

Step outside.

Go on.

Outside!

Oh. Oh.

Is that your car?

Bring it here.

Quick!

Brace comes down to this.

Liars, cheats,

users,

takers.

And where another always comes to that.

You listen to me.

She didn't know that we were coming.

She wanted us out of it right from the start.

So there's no point hurting her.

You understand me. You understand me.

Get back.

Get back.

Get back.

Those two men,

we all killed them.

You know that, don't you?

We're all responsible.

We all killed them.

You're wrong, Jerry.

You're a sick man.

You're responsible to nobody else.

So don't try to hang in on us.

You're gonna handle this one all by yourself.

Oh, let your head down

and go on and cry.

Thank you.

Hey, Joe Max, you ready?

What's the matter?

No.

You nervous?

Gotta be.

Let me do a kind of a special thing for you tonight

while I kind of catch myself, okay?

I've got a special guest, a special treat for you tonight.

Let me make him welcome.

He's gonna sing a special song for you.

He's called the Singing Policeman.

The Blonde Blintz.

Also known as the Blonde Blintz.

Okay.

Would you make welcome, please, Mr. Ken Hutchins.

Hey, it's here.

Come on.

Come on.

This is still in the list.

Hey.

Make him get up.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Thank you.

Thank you, Sue Ann.

Good evening.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

I'd like to, uh,

I'd like to sing for you, uh,

I'd like to sing for you.

Very good, copper. Hey!

Go right ahead, kid.

You weren't a hit at three police barbecues for nothing.

Lay him on him.

Shut up.

Shh.

If I could see you now

If you could see me now

The one who said

He'd rather roam

The one who said

He'd rather be alone

If you could only

See me now

If I could hold you now

Just for a moment

If I could make you mine

Just for an hour

Turn back the hands of time

You, if I could only

Hold you now

But I've been too long

In the wind

Too long in the rain

Taking any comfort

That I can

Looking back and longing

For the freedom

Of my chains

Lying in your

Loving arms again

If you could see me now

See me now

Singing

S-s-some

S-s-some

S-s-some

Singing somewhere in the

Lonely night

Uh, uh, uh

Is it the chorus?

Okay.

I've been too long

In the wind

Too long in the rain

Taking any comfort

That I can

I, uh,

Gotta put a dime in the meter.

I, uh,

Gotta put a dime in the meter.
