Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Charles, we have been searching our hearts to be kind since your mom got a man from the bank
00:00:09to buy your house and reclaim their debt. I wasn't expecting to find any of this here.
00:00:16Keep these close to you. If I'm honest, I really just need the money.
00:00:24Mr. Charles Blakey? Yeah, yeah, I'm Blakey.
00:00:26I haven't in mind to rent your basement for a couple of months.
00:00:31The what? Well, I'm sorry, but this house ain't for sale or for rent.
00:00:36Maybe this is a bad time. Call me if you have a change of heart.
00:00:42Mr. Bennett, won't anyone be wondering about you?
00:00:48Does anybody wonder about you, Charles?
00:00:52We all disappear sometimes, right?
00:00:56Why'd you choose my house?
00:01:01There's some answers you don't need to know.
00:01:06You seem tense, Mr. Blakey.
00:01:07Just tell me what you did.
00:01:09What is that?
00:01:12Are you okay, Charles?
00:01:14Tell me who you are, and I'll kill you!
00:01:20Why are you here?
00:01:21Why are you here?
00:01:22I'm here.
00:01:26What are you two doing now?
00:01:34You're both fired!
00:01:36Fired?
00:01:38We may fired. We quit.
00:01:47Got your clean shirt, J.D.
00:01:50Hair is sure looking good.
00:01:52I can't understand how you can stay so calm, J.D.
00:01:59I'll never want to work for that idiot again. Ever!
00:02:02Ever!
00:02:04I think you're gonna get your wish, J.D.
00:02:07Well, I'll tell you one thing.
00:02:09That was our lucky break getting fired from Matt's job.
00:02:11Lucky?
00:02:12That's right. Lucky.
00:02:13How can you say that, J.D.?
00:02:15Now, we've been fired so many places and so many times around here, well, there ain't no place to get fired from.
00:02:21Good. Good.
00:02:22Now, that's the best news I've heard yet.
00:02:24You've got a couple bucks on you.
00:02:28Here you go, Chuck. Keep the chain.
00:02:29Get me my shirt, kid.
00:02:30I understand how you feel, J.D., but we could have used the money.
00:02:33We never worried about money before.
00:02:35Well, how could we? We never had any.
00:02:37Oh, come on, kid.
00:02:38See you, Chuck.
00:02:39Come on. Quit worrying.
00:02:40Besides, we've got the big concert tonight.
00:02:42Oh, come on, J.D., it's showtime, kid.
00:03:10Oh, come on.
00:03:40Y'all having fun?
00:03:42Let's dance.
00:03:43See you, Chuck.
00:03:44Listen, I know all this dance and carrying on is making you thirsty, so we're going to give you a break here and let you wet your whistle while you're listening to those two ever-popular local boys, J.D. and the soft-flat kid.
00:03:52So, without further ado, I'd like to introduce that songwriter, singer, picker, and grinner, J.D. Todd and his partner, the soft-flat kid.
00:04:01What?
00:04:02What?
00:04:03Don't forget the money.
00:04:04Andy asked you all if you'd really be generous when the hat comes around.
00:04:07We'd appreciate it.
00:04:10What are you doing dancing with Cutter Skrull?
00:04:13You get a line, I'll get a pull, honey.
00:04:33You get a line, I'll get a pull, baby.
00:04:37You get a line, I'll get a pull, I'll get a pull, I'll get a pull down to the court at home, baby.
00:04:47Baby, baby, you're mine.
00:04:49Yonder comes a man with a sack on his back, honey
00:04:55Yonder comes a man with a sack on his back, baby
00:05:01Yonder comes a man with a sack on his back
00:05:06He's got a cold devil in that sack, baby
00:05:10My, honey, my
00:05:19Take your hands off me, leave me alone
00:05:24I'm not going
00:05:49Evening, boys
00:06:07How much do you reckon we managed to pick up off the floor, kid?
00:06:13Well, I got about eight dollars here, not counting the dimes and pennies
00:06:17I reckon that isn't too bad, considering we only got through about half a song
00:06:21Yeah, you did better than me, I only got seven dollars and fifty-two cent
00:06:25We ain't going to make us singers at this rate
00:06:29Oh, it ain't so bad, we still got our leftover payin' with this
00:06:32I figure we got a little over eighty bucks
00:06:35A pleasant good evening to you, gentlemen
00:06:37Howdy
00:06:38Tyrone T. Sullivan here at your service
00:06:41I don't believe I caught your handle
00:06:45I'm J.D. Todd and this here is the soft flat kid
00:06:48The soft flat kid? Todd?
00:06:50Yes, sir
00:06:51Yes, sir
00:06:51Yeah, I assure you the pleasure is all mine
00:06:53Gentlemen, my card
00:06:55Nashville? You're from Nashville?
00:06:58That's right, Nashville
00:06:59Are you really, like it says here, an artist manager?
00:07:02Well, you've heard of Mickey Gilley, Freddy Fender, the immortal Marty Robbins, Tammy Winnett, Loretta Lynn
00:07:08You manage all them folks?
00:07:10Each and every one of those people carry my card
00:07:12As a matter of fact, I'm here on a business arrangement right now for the great Chet Adkins
00:07:16You reckon you could help us?
00:07:20I don't see why not I helped them, didn't I?
00:07:22We sure would appreciate it
00:07:24Sure
00:07:24Well, uh, if I could settle with that sheriff
00:07:27I could get on the telephone and arrange with those great Nashville talents to help you up the staircase to the stars
00:07:33You mean the Grand Ole Opry, that's right, son
00:07:37But there's a matter of, uh, say, $20
00:07:40Without that, I'm completely helpless
00:07:42Mr. Sullivan, would this help? Would this help you?
00:07:55Gentlemen, a wise investment in an unlimited future
00:07:58Now, all that remains for me, uh, come morning
00:08:01Is to make a few strategic phone calls
00:08:04Some words to the wise
00:08:06And J.D. and the Salt Platt Kid will be launched
00:08:09Thanks, sir
00:08:10We appreciate you
00:08:11Todd, kid, come on out
00:08:15Believe it or not, there's no damages reported last night
00:08:18And I'm gonna give you boys a head start on the cut
00:08:21All right
00:08:25What's, uh, happened to Mr. Sullivan?
00:08:28Boy, he's fine and left
00:08:29Great
00:08:30Well, here we are, folks, them two superstars
00:08:42J.D. Todd and the Salt Platt Kid
00:08:43Back from another successful engagement in the Grit's room of the county jail
00:08:47Stomp, Texas
00:08:49I like fun at the jail, I kinda like it
00:08:51J.D., the food's terrible and you know it
00:08:53I reckon that Tyrone fella knew what he was talking about
00:08:57He didn't know all them stars
00:08:59How far is it to Nashville?
00:09:01Nashville? Now, it's too far for us
00:09:03Look at the map, kid
00:09:05Aw, J.D., come on
00:09:06Get the map
00:09:07Oh, man, it's there right here
00:09:09Maybe J.D.'s got another scheme
00:09:12Oh, looky there, J.D., that's over a thousand miles
00:09:20Oh, it ain't but that far on the map
00:09:23Now, that's still too far
00:09:24We shouldn't do it
00:09:26Why?
00:09:27We got the talent
00:09:28And now we've finally got somebody that's gonna help us
00:09:31Why shouldn't we do it?
00:09:33You wanna spend another night in the county jail?
00:09:37Well, I reckon you're right
00:09:38No one seems to be helping us here
00:09:42Why not?
00:09:45Give me that map
00:09:46I'll find a way to Nashville
00:09:48Now you're talking, kid
00:09:50Come on
00:09:50Goodbye, smelly honky-tonks and beer bar bosses
00:09:56Goodbye, hairy-legged women

00:11:50Duck River Speedway guest appearance.
00:11:53Mickey Gilly? Ain't that our Mickey Gilly Tyrone's friend?
00:11:56I think it is.
00:11:56You think this is?
00:11:57We got the same manager, don't we?
00:11:59Yeah.
00:12:01Look at him!
00:12:01Watch your watch where you're going!
00:12:05What's up? Are you crazy?
00:12:06Yeah.
00:12:08Must be going to the street like you.
00:12:10Oh, I hope I'll see you.
00:12:11Yeah, he'll see you.
00:12:13Well, I hope old Tyrone called him.
00:12:15Oh, I'm sure he did.
00:12:16I'm sure he did, man.
00:12:18Woo!
00:12:18We're on the way, J.D.
00:12:19Not even Nashville. We're living right, aren't we, Kip?
00:12:21You bet.
00:12:21You sure this is the way of the parking lot?
00:12:26J.D., this don't look like no parking lot to me.
00:12:28Just relax.
00:12:31Hi, officer.
00:12:32Oh, it sure is dusty, isn't it, kid?
00:12:33Can't see a thing.
00:12:35Well, there's the first, ladies and gentlemen,
00:12:37a pickup truck in a demolition derby.
00:12:39Oh, Lordy, J.D., we're on the racetrack.
00:12:43These fellas are crazy, kid. Hang on, we're getting out of here.
00:12:45Wait. Watch out.
00:12:49I'm hanging.
00:12:50I'm hanging.
00:12:53What the hell?
00:12:55They got her back here, J.D.
00:12:57Oh, no.
00:12:59What are we going to do now?
00:13:00They can't drive.
00:13:02These people driving crazy.
00:13:04We're getting out of here.
00:13:07Hang on.
00:13:07I don't think they're going to open that gate.
00:13:09We're going to make a deal.
00:13:09We'll catch him later when people ain't trying to kill us.
00:13:11Hang on.
00:13:12J.D.

00:15:03Right
00:15:03She's got the talent and I've got the brains
00:15:05What do you ladies like to do for fun?
00:15:09What do you call fun?
00:15:10I don't know
00:15:11J.D., how far is it to Nashville?
00:15:15You girls got a place to stay in Nashville?
00:15:19Yeah, we do
00:15:20Boy, that J.D. sure is cute
00:15:49We just met him, Sandy
00:15:50Don't go rushing into things as usual
00:15:52All I said was he's cute
00:15:54Kid
00:15:55I think it's roundup time in Tennessee
00:15:59It's about time
00:16:01Hey, you Cowboys see two girls?
00:16:04Why, what's up?
00:16:04Kidnapping, that's what
00:16:05Some fool run off with my fiancé
00:16:07They're not going to get too far, though
00:16:09My uncle's got roadblocks up from here to Nashville
00:16:11Roadblocks?
00:16:13That's right
00:16:13My uncle's the sheriff of Nashville
00:16:15And he don't take too kindly to kidnapping
00:16:17Kidnapping?
00:16:18Why else did she run off?
00:16:21We're supposed to get married next week
00:16:23What do these two girls look like?
00:16:26I'll tell you, my fiancé
00:16:27Sandy, she's blonde
00:16:30Beautiful
00:16:31Real pretty girl
00:16:32Another one's a redhead
00:16:34The one she runs with
00:16:35Kinda looks like a cockroach
00:16:37Or something like that
00:16:37Looks like a boy in there's kinda thick in the head, is he?
00:16:52Well, men are speaking
00:16:54Yeah
00:16:54I'll tell you what, though
00:16:56I'll take heart to this
00:16:57I've been reading them science magazines
00:16:59And they do medical miracles
00:17:00Every day something new come along
00:17:02He'll be alright
00:17:02There they go
00:17:03What?
00:17:03Those two girls
00:17:04With that guy, that car
00:17:05Come on, let's help him
00:17:06Come on, let's help him
00:17:06Come on, let's help him
00:17:06Come on, let's help him
00:17:07Come on, let's go
00:17:07Hurry up, let's go
00:17:29Come on
00:17:30What's the matter?
00:17:34Sandy, we just met your fiancé
00:17:37How dare he call himself her fiancé
00:17:42Look, Sandy was playing a club in Memphis
00:17:45And that animal, Arthur, came in and took a liking to her
00:17:48Well, that's no big deal
00:17:50Everybody who sees Sandy on stage takes a liking to her
00:17:52But Arthur kept coming in night after night
00:17:54Sandy felt sorry for him
00:17:55She brings home stray dogs
00:17:57It's like living with the Salvation Army
00:17:58She wants to save the world
00:18:00Anyway, Arthur kept pushing this clunker car on her
00:18:03She didn't want it, but no
00:18:05Dumbo insisted
00:18:06So she took it
00:18:07But believe me
00:18:08There were strings attached
00:18:09Arthur came down heavy
00:18:12Sandy had to marry him or else
00:18:14We had to run for our lives
00:18:15We had to use the old clunker car to do it
00:18:18Is that true, Sandy?
00:18:21Would I lie to you?
00:18:24No, man
00:18:24Oh, Mithra, look at that
00:18:38Uh-oh
00:18:39I guess he does have an uncle with the sheriff
00:18:42They're looking for someone
00:18:43I'll bet it's us
00:18:44Oh, Lord
00:18:45What seems to be the problem, officer?
00:18:56Long-haired hippie freaks
00:18:58That's what the problem is
00:18:59Kidnappers, murderers
00:19:01Stick-up men
00:19:02Thieves
00:19:03Don't pushers
00:19:05Wife-stealers
00:19:07Gamblers, shysters, low-sharks
00:19:09That's the problem
00:19:10Apen-toms
00:19:12Handers, philanders
00:19:13Hotheads
00:19:16I do, ma'am
00:19:17Texas cowboys and pickup trucks
00:19:21That ought to be scrap iron
00:19:22They head the list
00:19:23What list is that, Sheriff?
00:19:25My hate list, Buster
00:19:27You boys look kinda nervous
00:19:29I don't reckon either one of you
00:19:30Has got a driver's license
00:19:32Yeah, sir
00:19:32Yeah, right here
00:19:33Here it is, sir
00:19:34Where are you boys heading?
00:19:40Uh, we're gonna go to Nashville
00:19:42To get on the Grand Ole Opry
00:19:43Yes, sir
00:19:44That's right, yes, sir
00:19:45These your bags?
00:19:52Yes, sir
00:19:52That's our bags
00:19:53Texas
00:19:53The engines was attacked today
00:19:56Why, it'd probably take her
00:19:58And never even fire an error
00:20:00Why aren't you two sweet things
00:20:04Back home on the range
00:20:06Where you belong?
00:20:07Well, the truth is, Sheriff
00:20:09Well, Sheriff back home
00:20:10Was wondering why we didn't
00:20:11Just move along
00:20:12Right
00:20:13Nashville came highly recommended
00:20:15By a friend
00:20:15Well, your friend was wrong
00:20:17If you picked a guitar like Roy Clark
00:20:19Sang like Johnny Case
00:20:21And looked like Dolly Parton
00:20:22He'd still be wrong
00:20:23This here town's full of singing cowboys
00:20:25And they're all washing cars
00:20:27They're frying hamburgers
00:20:28And finger-licking chicken
00:20:30I'm a human polygraph
00:20:32You tell me a line
00:20:33I spot her like that
00:20:34A big whopper
00:20:35Or a little white one
00:20:36Don't make no difference to me
00:20:37What'd you do with the girls?
00:20:38Well, I'll tell you the truth, Sheriff
00:20:40I can't remember the last time
00:20:41We did anything with the girl
00:20:43No, I don't reckon you can
00:20:45Here
00:20:47And get out of my sight
00:20:50Drive it!
00:20:56Boy, I know times have changed
00:20:59But I don't believe
00:21:00The grand old opry's quite ready
00:21:01For a couple of soprano cowboys
00:21:03Just yet
00:21:04Come on
00:21:06Come on
00:21:06I'm getting that old feeling, J.D.
00:21:10What feeling's that, kid?
00:21:12A hankering to turn around
00:21:13And get on back home
00:21:13To Salt Flat, Texas
00:21:14I believe this outside world's dangerous
00:21:17I don't remember anybody
00:21:19Telling us it was gonna be easy
00:21:31Get ready, kid
00:21:33How you doing, sir?
00:21:45Where can I get you?
00:21:47I just want to tell you
00:21:48About this bad radiator leak

00:22:53All clear
00:22:53What's the trouble, old-timer?
00:23:19Sheriff, I guess you'd better take me in.
00:23:21I think I was asleep at the wheel.
00:23:24How's that?
00:23:24I was getting along fine, I think.
00:23:27And then the next thing I know,
00:23:28these cowboys came along and started putting gurbs out of my rumble seat.
00:23:31Texas cowboys?
00:23:33That's what the police said.
00:23:34I was the one that got caught napping.
00:23:43My goodness, what's going to happen next?
00:23:51Hold on!
00:24:21I won't hit it.
00:24:29I won't hit it.
00:24:30Don't go away!
00:24:33I won't hit it!
00:24:35How to do!
00:24:39Oh, my God.
00:25:09Oh, my God.
00:25:39Uncle Calvin, this is Archer.
00:25:42Uncle Calvin?
00:25:44Come in, Uncle Calvin.
00:25:46Yeah, go ahead.
00:25:48Uncle Calvin, is that you?
00:25:49Who you think it is, Johnny Cash?
00:25:52Uncle Calvin, I just wanted to tell you that your hamburger's getting colder.
00:25:54Not any colder in your brain, you...
00:25:57Settle down, kid.
00:25:58Just 22 miles and we'll be home safe.
00:26:00Safe?
00:26:01Now, how do you figure that?
00:26:03Kidnapping's a serious charge and we ain't in Salt Flat, Texas.
00:26:06This is Tennessee.
00:26:08Lord knows what they do to you for kidnapping here.
00:26:10Yeah, but no one was kidnapped.
00:26:11I'm telling you, that sheriff back there's mean and he don't like Texans.
00:26:15He'd just soon throw us in jail, throw away the key and then just hang us out to drive.
00:26:20Look, no one was kidnapped.
00:26:22We came of our own free will.
00:26:24We are the kidnappees.
00:26:25Would y'all relax?
00:26:28Just relax.
00:26:31Sorry, no warning, J.D., they got us!
00:26:33They ain't got us yet.
00:26:35Hang on!
00:26:36No!
00:26:38Oh, J.D., I told you!
00:26:40I knew you!
00:26:42I told you!
00:26:42Hurry it up!
00:26:44Hurry it up or we're going back to jail!
00:26:45Come on!
00:26:47Oh!
00:26:47You twig!
00:26:48You're like...
00:26:49Oh.
00:26:53Oh.
00:26:55It's only an ambulance.
00:26:59We knew it.
00:26:59Just an ambulance.
00:27:00We're just checking you.
00:27:02Did it hurt your legs?
00:27:03Yeah.
00:27:03Yeah.
00:27:05Boy, I want to check up.
00:27:25Sandy, you know what I was just thinking.
00:27:28See those horses out there?
00:27:30For 35 years, my life's been just like that.
00:27:33I just run around and around in circles and I don't ever seem to go anyplace.
00:27:37Who does?
00:27:38Oh, I know that.
00:27:39There's got to be more to life than that.
00:27:41It's the reason I left Salt Flat.
00:27:43Salt Flat.
00:27:43Is that really a place?
00:27:45Yeah.
00:27:46That's the only place that's no place.
00:27:49That's where you met your friend, isn't it?
00:27:51Yeah.
00:27:51Yeah.
00:27:52You and I fell third grade together.
00:27:55At least we do one thing well together.
00:27:57We play and sing.
00:27:59It makes people happy.
00:28:01I guess that's what it's all about.
00:28:03So now you're off to Nashville to be a big star, right?
00:28:07I don't know about being a big star, but I really would like to sing on that grand old
00:28:11library.
00:28:11What?
00:28:12Sing to all those people.
00:28:13You think it's possible?
00:28:15I don't know, but I think I'm going to try real hard.
00:28:18Boy, you really have that showbiz, Bob.
00:28:21Yeah.
00:28:22So what about you?
00:28:24Oh, there's not much to talk about.
00:28:26I'm sort of like you.
00:28:28I'm just looking for my place.
00:28:30Don't you like being a dancer?
00:28:31Oh, I like it.
00:28:33It's the only thing I have to hold on to.
00:28:35But it gets lonely.
00:28:40I can't imagine you getting lonely.
00:28:43Well, traveling around from place to place, working late every night, you don't really get
00:28:48a chance to meet someone special or to form a real relationship.
00:29:00Hey, kid.
00:29:01Huh?
00:29:01You've got the most adorable dummy I've ever seen.
00:29:06Where'd you get him?
00:29:08I bought him from an old ventriloquist who's down and out.
00:29:11Were you always interested in show business?
00:29:14Well, yeah, but before J.D. and I did a little rodeo, and then J.D. got hurt and quit, and
00:29:19I just went wrong.
00:29:20I can't imagine what kind of show business they had with Salt Flat.
00:29:23Well, we had three bars who played at the BFW Hall.
00:29:28We played a lot at the boys' gymnasium.
00:29:30Scared about going to Nashville?
00:29:32Scared?
00:29:34Truth is, I haven't been but about 10 miles outside of Salt Flat.
00:29:38Well, I expect there'd be a lot more people in Nashville looking at us than there are in the
00:29:41whole city of Salt Flat.
00:29:42Well, truth is, this is all new to me.
00:29:45You're scared.
00:29:46Yeah, uh, excuse me, uh, hey, we're ready, let's boom out!
00:29:57No more drop, no more dust, made it here, for our folks, made it to Nashville, that's where it'll be.
00:30:06Made it to Nashville, Nashville, Tennessee.
00:30:16We had a little trouble, we had a little pain, but we don't worry when we're looking for fame,
00:30:21right here in Nashville, that's where it'll be.
00:30:25Here in Nashville, Nashville, Tennessee.
00:30:30Here in Nashville, we made it to Nashville.
00:30:35We made it to Nashville, Nashville, Tennessee.
00:30:38Oh, oh, oh, yeah.
00:30:46We're gonna boogie, we're gonna roll, we're gonna sing that country song, like doing Nashville, that's where we'll be.
00:31:03Here in Nashville, Nashville, Tennessee.
00:31:09Boy, this is something like this.
00:31:10Boy, wait, wait, I know boy was dressed in that, huh?
00:31:12Here's when we get out.
00:31:13What?
00:31:14Can you help me with the bags, kid?
00:31:16Thank you, being so sweet, J.D.
00:31:18Why do you have to leave?
00:31:19We have to.
00:31:20I sure would like to see you again, Cindy.
00:31:22I'd like to see you, too.
00:31:24But right now, we have commitments.
00:31:36Thanks, kid.
00:31:38Please take care of J.D.
00:31:44Good luck, J.D.
00:31:46Bye, kid.
00:31:48Bye, J.D.
00:32:14Bye, J.D.
00:32:20Thank you, ma'am.

00:33:14J.D. Ty.
00:33:15Now, he probably won't know me, but he'll know my manager.
00:33:18Tyrone T. Sullivan.
00:33:20Yes, sir.
00:33:21Sullivan.
00:33:22He's Mr. Robbins' manager, too.
00:33:25Pardon me?
00:33:28Say that again, sir?
00:33:31You say he'll be there in about an hour?
00:33:33Listen.
00:33:34Would you tell him that J.D. Todd and a soft-flat kid called?
00:33:37Yes, sir.
00:33:38J.D. Todd and a soft-flat kid.

00:34:00Huh?
00:34:01How much is it?
00:34:02Just give me some money.
00:34:03Thank you, ma'am.
00:34:04You did get to change.
00:34:06Oh, don't worry about it, kid.
00:34:08We're in the big time now.
00:34:10It's a waste of money now.
00:34:11Don't worry about it.
00:34:12Shit.

00:34:41Good dascharium.
00:34:42It's four dollars apiece, and the date's free.
00:34:46Four bucks a pot? That's pretty steep, ain't it?
00:34:49Marty Robbins costs money, somebody's gotta pay.
00:34:52All right.
00:34:54Took me four bucks, and that's my date.
00:34:56I like a joke better than most, but I ain't laughin'.
00:34:59I need to pay up or step back and let these payin' customers through.
00:35:06Four dollars.

00:36:24Excuse me.
00:36:27Pardon me.
00:36:31Do you have reservations?
00:36:33We're guessing about Marty Robbins.
00:36:35Yes, we have the same manager.
00:36:37Tyrone T. Sullivan?
00:36:38Well, right this way, gentlemen.
00:37:02What have you had?
00:37:03Beard.
00:37:04Two?
00:37:05No, ma'am.
00:37:06Just one.
00:37:07Ladies and gentlemen, I know y'all came here tonight to see Marty Robbins.
00:37:10And we're gonna do one more song, and he's gonna be out.

00:38:15Great!
00:38:17Hey, man, Mr. Ramsey don't like intruders, okay?
00:38:19This is just friends of ours.
00:38:21Oh, uh, excuse me, let me introduce you.
00:38:23I have enough friends already, then.
00:38:25Okay, sucker, move.

00:39:13Back's enough.
00:39:14Now, here, take that whistle.
00:39:16Go on inside, clean out that place.
00:39:18I'll cover you from behind.
00:39:20All right, let's get out of here.
00:39:22Get out of the way!
00:39:24You never could do nothing.
00:39:26All right, all right!

00:40:47Uh, I can't.
00:40:48Get going!
00:40:49I can't, Uncle!
00:40:50What do you mean you can't?
00:40:51I got the keys.
00:40:52Oh.
00:40:54Get out of here, quick!
00:40:59I can't!
00:41:00Oh, you stupid...
00:41:02Uncle, I...
00:41:03You're dumber than a box of rocks!
00:41:05I'm on your side.
00:41:21Ah, misery!
00:41:24What else could go wrong?
00:41:48What are we gonna do now, JD?
00:41:49I don't know.
00:41:50Don't worry, I'll think of something.
00:41:52Don't be gone if your man's can.
00:42:02Hey!
00:42:03You two fellas up there!
00:42:05You want me to call off my dog?
00:42:07You've been up there about five hours.
00:42:09I figured that ought to be enough.
00:42:11Unless you were a couple of them real tough characters.
00:42:14No, ma'am, we ain't.
00:42:15Ma'am, we just needed a tire real bad.
00:42:17We didn't know you lived here.
00:42:18We figured, well, we'd settle up with you later.
00:42:21Right.
00:42:22Well, that's mighty sporting of you.
00:42:24Well, how about it?
00:42:25Do you want to come down?
00:42:27Yes, ma'am.
00:42:28Yes, ma'am, we sure do.
00:42:29Well, come on down!
00:42:31Tillie!
00:42:32Well, I'm sure no friend of Sheriff Letty.
00:42:37And I didn't figure you for a couple of kidnappers or tire snatchers.
00:42:42Well, everybody knows that every junkyard has got a guard dog.
00:42:46And so I'm not going to turn you in until after you've had your breakfast.
00:42:50Well, settle down, fellas.
00:42:51I'm not going to have you locked up.
00:42:53I know what show business is all about.
00:42:56You sure know the big ones, ma'am.
00:42:58Well, they're all my friends.
00:42:59Really?
00:43:00Sure, I've seen them all come to town with stars in their eyes and nothing in their pockets.
00:43:06What happens to them?
00:43:07Well, sometimes they make it and sometimes they don't.
00:43:09We're going to make it.
00:43:10We already got us a manager.
00:43:12What junkyard is he ripping off now?
00:43:15No, ma'am.
00:43:16He's back in Texas doing some work for Chet Atkins.
00:43:18And in the meantime, what are you fellas going to be doing?
00:43:20Snatching tires?
00:43:21No, ma'am.
00:43:22Look, listen to an old lady.
00:43:25You can't go driving through Nashville in your beat up old pickup truck and waltz out onto the stage of the grand old opera.
00:43:31No, ma'am.
00:43:32We've learned that.
00:43:33You've got to have experience.
00:43:35It seems like we've been getting a lot of that lately.
00:43:37You've got to have more and the right people have got to see you and hear you.
00:43:41Well, how would we get to meet the right people?
00:43:44Well, the ones that make it big have an agent.
00:43:46And that's what you fellas need, an agent.
00:43:48But in the meantime, sit down and let me get some food ready for you.
00:43:52Thank you, ma'am.
00:44:00Can you believe it?
00:44:01We come 2,000 miles to get on the grand old opera and we can't even get an audition.
00:44:05Yeah.
00:44:06Well, don't worry about it.
00:44:07I'll figure out something.
00:44:08Come on.
00:44:09Well, I'm trying to find me her nature.
00:44:26Yeah, I'm trying to sing my song.
00:44:32But nobody here takes time to hear my music.
00:44:39Oh, I guess I'll be trying on my own.
00:44:45Nobody here knows I can play piano.
00:44:51Nobody here knows I can sing the blues.
00:45:01I've got a lot of them lately.
00:45:04Well, I play guitar, play harmonica and a blues.
00:45:10Oh, I guess I'll have to make it on my own.
00:45:16What do you think of that?
00:45:21I'm sure we're getting tired.
00:45:30I'll tell you, Marcy, it's just one big runaround.
00:45:33We can't get a job without an agent.
00:45:35We can't get an agent without a job.
00:45:37Well, that figures.
00:45:39There's 18,000 fellows in town, each with the same dream and more coming every day.
00:45:43This is the only town in the world where the mayor's got a recording contract.
00:45:47So I guess we still have the same problem, don't we?
00:45:50This is real copper now to take care of it.
00:45:53Yes, ma'am.
00:45:54So what do we do now, Marcy?
00:45:55Well, the first thing you can do is help me get out of this place.
00:45:58Yes, ma'am.
00:45:59Me in.
00:46:00Watch your step.
00:46:01Up we go.
00:46:02Watch your step.
00:46:03Down.
00:46:04Very fine.
00:46:05Thank you, boys.
00:46:06So what do you think, Marcy?
00:46:08What should we do now?
00:46:09I just don't know.
00:46:11There is this one fellow that might help you, but no, I ain't gonna put you through that.
00:46:15Why?
00:46:16Why?
00:46:17Because I just don't like him.
00:46:20But probably he is your only chance.
00:46:22Could you get us an appointment with him?
00:46:24If that old crook owes me a favor, I'll call him.
00:46:28Oh, Marcy, we love you, don't we, kid?
00:46:30You bet.
00:46:31I don't.
00:46:32I don't.
00:46:33I don't really.
00:46:34You can see it, Buffy.
00:46:55Look, Ned, I can't deliver the hardy things.
00:46:57They're not available.
00:47:00Now, okay, okay, sit tight.
00:47:02I'll be back.
00:47:07Mr. Buffy?
00:47:09So, you're J.D.?
00:47:10Yes, sir.
00:47:11You must be the sulfide kid.
00:47:13Yes, sir.
00:47:14Sit down, boys.
00:47:15Some lunch?
00:47:16No, thanks, sir.
00:47:17Now, bring the boys some coffee.
00:47:19No, that's okay.
00:47:20Marcy told me you'd do great acts.
00:47:22Well, we work hard.
00:47:23How long you been in Nashville?
00:47:24Oh, a couple of days. We're up from Texas.
00:47:26Yeah, I need about 30 minutes.
00:47:28You think you can handle it?
00:47:29Yeah, you bet we can.
00:47:31And J.D.'s written so many songs,
00:47:33it'd take us about two hours to get through them all.
00:47:43Hello, Ned?
00:47:44Big Bob Buffy here again.
00:47:46New hot act from Texas just stopped by.
00:47:48I think I can get him for your show tonight.
00:47:50What?
00:47:5175?
00:47:52You kidding?
00:47:53We'll take it, Mr. Buffy.
00:47:55We'll take it.
00:47:56We'll take it, Mr. Buffy.
00:47:57No, no, quiet.
00:47:58No, I couldn't, I couldn't offer him that amount.
00:48:01I mean, it would be an insult.
00:48:02Yes.
00:48:04100?
00:48:08Well, okay, you got them.
00:48:10Woo!
00:48:11Hey, take it easy.
00:48:12It's only a fill in days.
00:48:13Well, I'll tell you, Mr. Buffy,
00:48:14that 100's gonna come in mighty handy.
00:48:16What 100?
00:48:17What about my commission?
00:48:18Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot.
00:48:19What do you think I'm running here?
00:48:20A charity?
00:48:21No, sir.
00:48:22I got overhead.
00:48:23I got expenses.
00:48:24Now, here's how it works.
00:48:25I get half.
00:48:26That leaves you with 50.
00:48:27Now, you have to pay Ned 25.
00:48:29Who's Ned?
00:48:30He's the manager.
00:48:31Now, you got that?
00:48:32$50 to me, $25 to Ned.
00:48:34Leaves you with $25.
00:48:35What do you say?
00:48:36A deal?
00:48:37Yes, sir.
00:48:38Good.
00:48:39Good check, sir.
00:48:40Thank you, JD.
00:48:41That's class.
00:48:42You can always tell a man by his actions.
00:48:43It's those little moments of initiative
00:48:45that make the difference between being a nobody
00:48:47and being a somebody.
00:48:48Let me tell you, JD.
00:48:49You are a somebody.
00:48:50Hey, it'll be my pleasure to buy lunch at a future date.
00:48:53What are you gonna wear?
00:48:54You got some cowboy rhinestone guts?
00:48:55No, sir.
00:48:56This is all we have.
00:48:57No way.
00:48:58This is a high-class club.
00:48:59My acts have style.
00:49:00If you two are going to wear it,
00:49:01you have some cowboy rhinestone guts?
00:49:03No, sir.
00:49:04This is all we have.
00:49:05No way.
00:49:06This is a high-class club.
00:49:07My acts have style.
00:49:08You two would better get yourself some better-looking clothes
00:49:11if you want to work this job.
00:49:13Yes, sir.
00:49:14We will.
00:49:15Here's my card.
00:49:166 o'clock?
00:49:17You come to the office about 6 o'clock,
00:49:18and I'll give you the directions.
00:49:20Okay?
00:49:21Now, get yourself some nice clothes.
00:49:38Oh, shit.
00:49:39What do you figure happen to all these folks having these guitars?
00:49:49Oh, I don't know.
00:49:51Hutting back in Salt-Flat or someplace just like it.
00:49:54I suppose.
00:49:55They got a bunch of them, don't they?
00:49:56They have different colors, shapes, sizes.
00:49:57Do you have different colors, shapes, sizes?
00:50:05Guys, here's your ticket.
00:50:06I'm working.
00:50:07Here's your 20.
00:50:08Blackmail Freedman, I think.
00:50:09Come on.
00:50:10Come back and see us again.
00:50:11What do you got?
00:50:12Broke.
00:50:13Rich people don't come in here.
00:50:14What do you got, a hock?
00:50:15That's something special.
00:50:16Bet you ain't got one of those.
00:50:17What's his name?
00:50:18Andy.
00:50:19Hey, that's good.
00:50:21Look, what am I going to do with a dummy?
00:50:23I got enough weirdness around here.
00:50:25Take a look at that.
00:50:2620 years ago I bought that.
00:50:2820 years I'm trying to sell that,
00:50:30and I'll have better luck with it than with your dummy.
00:50:33You mean we can't get any money?
00:50:34What am I going to do with a dog?
00:50:35Not a dog, I'm a dummy.
00:50:37Look, if you say so, you're a dummy.
00:50:39Look, sir, we just got our first booking,
00:50:41and we need some money for some clothes.
00:50:44Oh, you need clothes?
00:50:45Yes.
00:50:46Wow.
00:50:49Don't you know I love you?
00:50:56Don't, don't, everything but I don't love you.
00:51:07Don't you know I'm lost from the north sky are here?
00:51:17It simply means I'm lost wherever you are here.
00:51:29Look at that.
00:51:30Yeah!
00:51:31Here we go!
00:51:32There you go!
00:51:33Oh, I'm sorry!
00:51:34Oh, I'm sorry, oh, I'm sorry
00:51:38The mercy is my joy I say today
00:51:39By the name of I own
00:51:44I'll sing it by the name of my own
00:52:02But now I'm singing country songs
00:52:07By the name of my own
00:52:10It's just a country song I'm singing
00:52:22I'm finding it on my own
00:52:26It's just a country song I'm singing
00:52:38I'm finding it on my own
00:52:42I'm finding it on my own
00:52:46I'm finding it on my own
00:52:48How much?
00:52:50Yes, sir.
00:52:51Uh, $750.
00:52:54$750?
00:52:56Well, there's a little tax on the end of that.
00:52:59That's good. That's really good.
00:53:01Yeah, that's good.
00:53:02Pretty good.
00:53:05I always thought about taking art.
00:53:07I think I got a little bit of talent.
00:53:09Now, let me see.
00:53:09Now, put some more sideburns on that little guy.
00:53:12Yeah.
00:53:13Let me see the big guy one more time here.
00:53:17Yeah, I think he had a cowboy hat or something like that.
00:53:20What's a cowboy hat?
00:53:21Yeah, put that on there.
00:53:22That's good.
00:53:23That's it. That's it.
00:53:24That's good.
00:53:26That's real good.
00:53:28Hey, Uncle Calvin.
00:53:30I think we got it here.
00:53:31Little guy with the bushy sideburns.
00:53:33I do remember that.
00:53:34And the big guy had on a cowboy hat or something like that.
00:53:37What do you think?
00:53:40See what I mean with the sideburns?
00:53:43You see the bigger guy?
00:53:44Now, what would you think if you was looking at an idiot?
00:53:47What can I do now?
00:53:50I don't look anything like him, Arthur.
00:53:53The little one was a lot fatter than that,
00:53:55and the tall one was skinnier.
00:53:57And besides, you got the mustache on the little one,
00:53:59and it was on the big one.
00:54:01Well, I didn't draw it on him, Calvin.
00:54:03You wouldn't know what you was a-looking at
00:54:05if you was a-gazing in the mirror.
00:54:07But don't let me, boy!
00:54:09Now we gotta catch them cowboys!
00:54:12Now get back over there and do it again!
00:54:14Get to work!
00:54:16Can I have a little take on that cake?
00:54:17It gently has to hang out.
00:54:19Right?
00:54:19Okay.
00:54:20So, let's wait.
00:54:21Let's go.
00:54:21Let's go.
00:54:22Let's do it again.
00:54:35Let's go.
00:54:36Let's do it again.
00:54:36Let's do it again.
00:54:36Let's go.
00:54:37Oh, my God.
00:55:07Okay, okay, okay, okay, that's enough, okay.
00:55:32I'll get back to you guys, okay?
00:55:34Sure do appreciate it, Mr. Bluntby.
00:55:36Okay, they'll mention it, they'll mention it.
00:55:41Sit down and relax, guys.
00:55:44Oh, here's your, uh, here's your money from, uh, Saturday.
00:55:48Oh, thank you, sir.
00:55:51Uh, Mr. Buffy, I wonder if we might talk to you for a minute, sir?
00:55:55Sure, why not?
00:55:56Uh, sir, this $25 we're making on the job,
00:56:00it's, uh, it's just not enough.
00:56:01I mean, we, we made more than that back in salt flat.
00:56:03That's true.
00:56:04Well, this ain't salt flat, it's Nashville, don't you forget it?
00:56:06Yes, sir, I know that, but you see,
00:56:08uh, $25, that's just not enough to live on here in Nashville.
00:56:11You, you guys are all the same.
00:56:13You come here hungry, a few days go by,
00:56:15you get, get the wrinkles out of your belly,
00:56:16and suddenly you're, you're too good for the club.
00:56:19No, sir, it's not that.
00:56:20It's just that, well,
00:56:22we don't think it's fair
00:56:23that the club manager gets half of our pay.
00:56:25We want $50 if that's what we earn.
00:56:28No, nobody tells me how to run my business.
00:56:30I'm not trying to tell you how to run your business, Mr. Buffy.
00:56:31We're not trying to be personal, it's just...
00:56:33Not personal.
00:56:34Listen, Sonny, I'm not going to let a second-rate cowboy act dictate to me.
00:56:37Now, wait a minute.
00:56:39Look, I don't need you.
00:56:40You know, act like you were a dime a dozen.
00:56:42Come on, kid.
00:56:43Get out.
00:56:43Yeah, that's right.
00:56:44Go on, get out of here.
00:56:45Go on, get out.
00:56:46Get out, get out.
00:56:47Go on, go on.
00:56:49There, here.
00:56:50See if you can do any better.
00:56:51See how many agents will bother with a couple of hours, shall we?
00:56:53Hanks from Texas.
00:56:54Go on, keep moving, you great.
00:56:56Get out of my sight.
00:56:57I don't want to see you guys again.
00:56:59Don't you ever come crawling around here.
00:57:02Tell them I can not call me again.
00:57:06If you take my advice,
00:57:08you'll stay out of Nashville.
00:57:11Go on.
00:57:16Hey, you two.
00:57:19Come back here.
00:57:19Hey, come back here for a minute, huh?
00:57:24Come on, come on.
00:57:42What's the matter?
00:57:43I'm sorry I yelled at you guys.
00:57:46I, uh, I got an ulcer from 32 years of booking these joints.
00:57:51Believe me, I hate them as much as you.
00:57:54But that's the only way.
00:57:55I mean, they're a start.
00:57:56You, you, you've got to start somewhere.
00:58:00There are no shortcuts.
00:58:02I know what I am.
00:58:03I, I don't kid myself.
00:58:04Kind of small-time agents.
00:58:11You think I want to pay off the managers, uh...
00:58:14That's the only way I could get you in.
00:58:16I mean, pay and play.
00:58:19Why do I allow it?
00:58:20Yes, I dream someday of being someone.
00:58:25I dream that, uh, one day one of my acts will make it.
00:58:29Maybe even you.
00:58:31And then I'll get a call and they'll say, uh...
00:58:34Bob, I, uh, I want you to handle my business.
00:58:38And I'll be talking the big deals and living the good life.
00:58:40And that's why I, uh, hustle these joints.
00:58:50Plus, I, uh, I believe that one day Big Bob Buffy will have himself a star.
00:59:01Mr. Buffy?
00:59:03Yes?
00:59:04Do you think we're amateur hour cowboys?
00:59:06Do you?
00:59:07No, sir, I don't.
00:59:09Then prove it.
00:59:09Work.
00:59:11Work.
00:59:12Work.
00:59:39Find me playing on my old guitar
00:59:41On the road to Nashville
00:59:43That's where I'll be

01:00:27Hey, what is it with you two guys?
01:00:37One week you bring in the dummy
01:00:39A week goes by
01:00:40You take the dummy back again
01:00:41Another week goes by
01:00:42And you bring the dummy back in
01:00:43And you get in me
01:00:44What's going on?
01:00:45I don't know
01:00:46It's like
01:00:46Whatever we do
01:00:47It turns out wrong
01:00:48I don't know
01:00:49Where we're going to get
01:00:50To where we want to go
01:00:51Where do you want to go?
01:00:52Well, the Grand Ole Opry
01:00:53Oh, you and half of Nashville
01:00:55It's like a disease
01:00:56I know it's difficult
01:00:58But difficult, yes
01:00:59It's impossible, no
01:01:00You know somebody
01:01:02With the Grand Ole Opry?
01:01:03There's only one way
01:01:04To get on the Grand Ole Opry
01:01:05You have to make a record
01:01:06Then they call you
01:01:09You don't have to call them
01:01:10Really?
01:01:10Yeah, you see that guitar over here
01:01:12Belong to Marty Roberts
01:01:14Gave him ten bucks for it
01:01:16A month goes by
01:01:18His record comes out
01:01:19The rest is history
01:01:20I wouldn't take a thousand bucks
01:01:22For that now
01:01:22Makes me part of history, too
01:01:24Record, huh?
01:01:26Yeah, that's right
01:01:26It's a demo
01:01:27That's what it's called
01:01:27A demo
01:01:28You have to make a demo
01:01:29You think maybe we could
01:01:30Definitely
01:01:30You have to make a demo
01:01:32That's it
01:01:32You have to make a demo
01:01:34Wait, kid
01:01:35Huh?
01:01:37Give Mr. Friedman a demo
01:01:38What?
01:01:39Come on
01:01:39Give Mr. Friedman a demo
01:01:40I'll explain later
01:01:42Come on
01:01:42Come on
01:01:42Gee, Dino, wait a minute
01:01:43Come on
01:01:44That's show business, Andy
01:01:48Hey, partner
01:01:56Who are we going to get the money
01:01:58To make that record?
01:01:59Oh, I don't know
01:02:00But I'll figure out
01:02:01Can you believe that?
01:02:05Hey, what's the name of that town
01:02:26Where they have those rodeos
01:02:27Franklin
01:02:28Can I open, cowboy?
01:02:48That's where I sign up
01:02:49This is the place
01:02:50Which event?
01:02:51Which one's paying the most?
01:02:52Bull riding
01:02:53That bull riding
01:02:54Sign here, partner
01:02:55Good luck, cowboy
01:03:06Thank you
01:03:06Hey, that bull riding one time
01:03:09Hey, JD
01:03:12Hey, kid
01:03:13Come on, I got your number for him
01:03:16Hmm
01:03:16Let's hope you're lucky with that
01:03:18Oh, yeah
01:03:18It's not good to be back, honey, huh?
01:03:21Hell, I don't know, JD
01:03:22It's been a long time
01:03:23Hey, don't be humble with me, champ
01:03:26I've seen your belt buckle, remember?
01:03:28Being champ and salt play
01:03:30I did exactly big time, JD
01:03:31Besides, I had to stop wearing that buckle
01:03:34And turn my belly green
01:03:37Hey, you're the one on that little hurricane, aren't you?
01:03:40You're on the record
01:03:41Well, good luck
01:03:42Good luck
01:03:44Good luck
01:03:44Yeah
01:03:44Oh, good
01:03:47Want some ice cream, kid?
01:03:49JD, what's this about a bull
01:03:51Call a hurricane?
01:03:52You sure you don't want some ice cream?
01:03:53JD?
01:03:56Whoa, whoa!
01:04:00It pays the most
01:04:01You need the money to make that?
01:04:03You were the champ of salt fly in Texas
01:04:05Being the champ of salt fly in Texas
01:04:07I was drunk busting
01:04:08This is some bull riding
01:04:09Kid, do you want to be
01:04:10I don't want to be an old operer or not?
01:04:12No, I do, JD
01:04:13I think you're going to have to ride this bull
01:04:14Now, come on
01:04:15And now, ladies and gentlemen
01:04:16We move to chute number eight
01:04:17Chute number eight
01:04:18We have the cowboy
01:04:19Number 208
01:04:21Better known as the salt plat kid
01:04:23Now, kid, you don't have to do this
01:04:24If you don't want to
01:04:25It's up to you
01:04:26Well, the things I do for our career
01:04:29Sometimes I don't believe
01:04:30All right, let's let her rip
01:04:31A great ride with us all plat kid folks
01:04:45A great ride with us all plat kid folks
01:04:59But only seven seconds
01:05:01Not enough to follow back
01:05:02I ain't got it
01:05:20I ain't got it
01:05:32An old hurricane just pounded some sense into me
01:05:35I kind of forgot I was just a country boy
01:05:38Thought I could whip Nashville
01:05:40But it ain't going to be
01:05:43Once they put that dream next to old Andy
01:05:45And all those guitars in the hawk shop
01:05:47Forget it
01:05:49I'm dragging you down, JD
01:05:53I'm a loser now
01:05:56I know that
01:05:58You do better on your own
01:06:01I'm going back to Texas
01:06:28I'm going back to Texas
01:06:58Ha, my two stars
01:07:03How are you?
01:07:04Uh, not so good
01:07:05Did you make your record?
01:07:08No, I suspect we're going to be going home
01:07:09Home?
01:07:11Yeah, uh, say, Mr. Friedman
01:07:12Uh, could I ask you a favor?
01:07:15Sure, asking's cheap
01:07:17Uh, I'd like to exchange my guitar
01:07:19For Andy
01:07:21Your guitar?
01:07:23But how would you work?
01:07:24Well, uh, I don't expect we'll be doing much that anymore
01:07:26Want more music?
01:07:29No, I guess not
01:07:30You mean you're going to give it up just like that?
01:07:33Mr. Friedman
01:07:34Could I ask you a favor?
01:07:37Could I exchange my guitar for Andy?
01:07:40Okay, okay
01:07:40I'll get you Andy
01:07:43Get him
01:07:44Here's your guitar
01:07:58Bring me along with your guitars

01:08:06Here
01:08:06Thank you, Mr. Friedman
01:08:11Good luck
01:08:30That's right, J.D.
01:08:47Just go on back and be a hammer turret
01:08:50And take a cowboy for the rest of your life
01:08:52Just go on back and lead your two-man band
01:08:56That's what you know best
01:08:58Just go on back and stay in your rut
01:09:03Go on back and let some other foreman kick you around
01:09:11Get out the street
01:09:14Can't trust anything
01:09:18No way!
01:09:21I'm at it!
01:09:24I'm tired of being a loser
01:09:28I'm tired of quitting
01:09:30I don't want it anymore, kid

01:11:16Once we get up in here,
01:11:17there may be a guard,
01:11:17and if he's, you're going to have to take him out.

01:14:49I just sat back in the lap.
01:14:50Hit it, kid.
01:14:51Hit it, kid.
01:14:52I got a song that's good.
01:15:01Just a simple song.
01:15:03Everybody sing along.
01:15:04If you like the melody, you can sing along.
01:15:08Don't leave no words.
01:15:09Just sing out strong.

01:15:37I'm just gone to the ball.
01:15:40Might a proud be of the thing.
01:15:43Nothing that long has just been told.
01:15:46It's been a heavy, Lord, I'll sing.
01:15:50Everybody sing along.
01:15:53Dreamed about this happy thing.
01:15:56Oh, that's never come my way.
01:15:58Dreamed about it since the world was born.
01:16:01But a country is my joy
01:16:05I see it
01:16:06I finally made it on my own
01:16:09When I think back
01:16:11It wasn't really bad
01:16:13It took about the best times
01:16:16It's for forever to have
01:16:17But now I'm singing country songs
01:16:22I finally made it on my own
