Wise Blood Page #4

And you don't know nobody neither.

I knew when I first seen you that you

didn't have nobody or nothin' but Jesus.

I seen you. Yeah, I knew it.

That's right.

Standin' around actin' like you got

wiser blood than anybody else.

But you ain't, 'cause I'm the one

that has it. Not you. Me.

What are you talkin' about?

About I know things

I ain't never learned... -

how I can see signs.

It's somethin' that just happens,

and I got to do some things sometimes.

I got to do some things

sometimes I don't even wanna do.

And sometimes inside me,

I can feel it.

I can feel it pullin' and tunnin' at me

and pushin'...

and I can feel my blood beatin',

and I got to do this thing right now.

It's... - It's wise blood.

It ain't everybody has it.

See, it's a nift.

It's a nift like, uh,

the nift of the prophets.

Now, I ain't sayin' I'm a prophet.

No, it ain't like that, but it's like that.

You're crazy, boy.

You get away from me,

and you stay away.

I'm goin' where I'm goin'.

I got a woman.

I got a woman, see?

And that's where I'm goin'... -

to visit her.

She told me where they live.

That girl you give a peeler to...

she said to visit 'em and to bring you there.

Ray.

This way out. This way out.

Eighty-five cents.

Don't buy nothin'for the lady.

Exclusive show. Miss Eve herself In person.

Only 15 at a time.

Only 15 at a time.

So "sinsational,"

it'll cost you 85 cents to see it.

85 cents to see it.

So sinsational.

...repent to the Lord

and burn your eyes clean.

You'll see yourselves

for what you was... filth.

A generation of blasphemers

and whoremongers, every one of you.

There ain't one of you is a clean man

or woman or child.

I tell you there ain't no finer act

than God's judgment.

Repent before he casts you down

into the burning pit of hell...

like stones into a lake of fire.

You don't just walk in here like that.

I'll show you

what we've got to show.

- Let me see Slade.

- What you want to see him for?

I want to see him about this here car.

- I'm him.

- Well, how much it cost?

How much do you finure?

Give us an estimate.

- What do you want?

- I want this here car.

- I might take $300 for it.

- I wouldn't pay no more than 200 for it.

That car, you can't buy like that every day.

It's got new tires on it.

They was new when it was built.

They built good cars several years ano.

They don't build good cars no more.

- You wanna get underneath it and look at it?

- No.

Told you you wouldn't bust them tires.

What'll you give me for it?

I'll take two and a half.

That wouldn't be worth

what it'd cost to cart it off.
