I Take This Woman Page #5

I gotta get after those kettles quick

well honey looks like we're gonna have a

guest Oh what

I guess the visitor

fellas come here to live now what do you

mean she was born out of season honey

and her mother just died I got to be

kept warm and well this is the only warm

place around here do you mean we're

gonna share this room with a cow you'll

die anywhere else what do I care what

happened listen dear I'm not in love

with her either but we can't afford to

lose her

we're out to raise cows and everyone

counts well I won't live with a cow and

ain't a cow it's a cap

we got to make a cow out of her so she

can raise other cows for us

you might as well make the best of a

cake.

Tom what is it what's the matter it's

Jim he's sick man I'm kind of afraid Tom

what are you afraid of

he's a tough man he said he wants to see

you sure you stay here I'll get the dock

and pick you up on the way back all

right Tom long sorry to take him away

from you like this mrs. McNair that's

all right

sit down over there

it's horrible isn't it what's that this

life

ranching loneliness I don't know it's

hard yes but well I never thought about

it much and I never think about anything

else I hate it and if there's any chance

to get away from this place before he

comes back I'm going what are you

talking about don't you understand.

English language I'd begin it and then.

II know I'm through well I'm surprised

you stuck it as long as you did I don't

know how I've done it I never thought

you would I guess only women that's got

immense strength can live out here and

you ain't one of those he didn't drag

you out here did he

no and he's not gonna keep me here

either I made a mistake that's all and

you're going to leave him before the

winters out am I

well mrs. McNair think of just one thing

before you quit the difference of

leaving him now instead of waiting for

the spring may mean success or failure

for tongue for all his life why

how could tom ain't like the other

answers

he's a born straight it's the first time

he's ever settled down and that was

because of you he'd throw it all away

like that if you leave him now that

isn't true maybe after the first year he

might keep on by himself but if he quits

now he'll never try again seems a pity

not to stick it a little longer and give

him a chance I can't do it I mean I

don't think I can

[Applause]

Hello a woman oh hello back to soon and

with the good I got the money from the

bank they did it then that's what they

did baby and I was having the feed that

did the trick so what happens they lend

me enough money to buy a hundred more
