00:09:08.583 --> 00:09:12.082
Uh-- I almost shot your ass, boy.
What you doing up here?
53
00:09:12.083 --> 00:09:13.416
I told you, Lymon.
54
00:09:17.208 --> 00:09:20.457
This is Lymon.
You remember Lymon Jackson from down home.
55
00:09:20.458 --> 00:09:23.582
This my Uncle Doaker.
Lymon talking about you might be sleep.
56
00:09:23.583 --> 00:09:26.790
- I thought you down in Mississippi.
- Me and Lymon selling watermelons.
57
00:09:26.791 --> 00:09:29.707
We got a truck out there.
Got a whole truckload of watermelons.
58
00:09:29.708 --> 00:09:32.165
Where's Berniece? Hey, Berniece!
59
00:09:32.166 --> 00:09:33.874
- Berniece up there sleep.
- Let her get up.
60
00:09:33.875 --> 00:09:37.374
Been three years since I seen my sister.
Hey, Berniece!
61
00:09:41.833 --> 00:09:43.499
Where y'all get that truck from?
62
00:09:43.500 --> 00:09:47.040
It's Lymon's. I told him let's get
a load of watermelons and bring 'em here.
63
00:09:47.041 --> 00:09:50.332
Boy Willie say he's going back,
but I'm gonna stay.
64
00:09:50.333 --> 00:09:52.750
- See what it's like.
- Carry me down there first.
65
00:10:02.375 --> 00:10:04.124
As many watermelons
you got stacked up there,
66
00:10:04.125 --> 00:10:05.374
no wonder the truck broke down.
67
00:10:05.375 --> 00:10:07.290
What you doing all that hollering for?
68
00:10:07.291 --> 00:10:10.207
Hey, Berniece. Doaker said you was sleep.
69
00:10:10.208 --> 00:10:12.416
I said at least you can get up and say hi.
70
00:10:13.291 --> 00:10:16.249
It's five o'clock in the morning,
and you come in with all this noise.
71
00:10:16.250 --> 00:10:19.207
Can't come like normal folks.
You got to bring all that noise.
72
00:10:19.208 --> 00:10:21.249
Hell, woman.
I was glad to see Doaker.
73
00:10:21.250 --> 00:10:25.665
I come 1,800 miles to see my sister.
Figure she might wanna get up and say hi.
74
00:10:25.666 --> 00:10:27.915
But now you can go back upstairs.
75
00:10:27.916 --> 00:10:30.665
This is Lymon. You remember
Lymon Jackson from down home.
76
00:10:30.666 --> 00:10:32.750
- Mm.
- How you doing, Berniece?
77
00:10:33.333 --> 00:10:35.665
You look just like I thought you looked.
78
00:10:35.666 --> 00:10:38.583
Why you all got to come in
hollering and carrying on?
79
00:10:39.083 --> 00:10:42.665
- Waking the neighbors with all that noise.
- We fixing to have a party.
80
00:10:42.666 --> 00:10:45.415
Doaker, where your bottle?
Me and Lymon celebrating.
81
00:10:45.416 --> 00:10:47.499
The Ghosts of the Yellow Dog got Sutter.
82
00:10:47.500 --> 00:10:49.666
- Say what?
- Ask Lymon.
83
00:10:50.250 --> 00:10:53.457
They found him the next morning.
Say he drowned in his well.
84
00:10:53.458 --> 00:10:56.791
- When this happen, Boy Willie?
- About three weeks ago.
85
00:10:57.291 --> 00:10:59.874
Me and Lymon was over in Stoner County
when we heard about it.
86
00:10:59.875 --> 00:11:01.832
We laughed. We thought it was funny.
87
00:11:01.833 --> 00:11:04.999
Great big old 340-pound man
gonna fall down his well.
88
00:11:08.041 --> 00:11:10.500
Everybody say
the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog pushed him.
89
00:11:11.125 --> 00:11:12.832
I don't wanna hear that nonsense.
90
00:11:12.833 --> 00:11:15.666
Somebody down there
pushing them people in they wells.
91
00:11:17.958 --> 00:11:20.124
Me and Lymon got
a truckload of watermelons out there.
92
00:11:20.125 --> 00:11:21.540
Where y'all get that truck?
93
00:11:21.541 --> 00:11:23.624
It's Lymon's.
Doaker, where your bottle?
94
00:11:23.625 --> 00:11:25.958
I know you got a bottle
stuck up in your room.
95
00:11:30.750 --> 00:11:33.457
Lymon bought that truck
to have him a place to sleep.
96
00:11:33.458 --> 00:11:37.290
Got the sheriff looking for him.
Got Stovall looking for him too.
97
00:11:37.291 --> 00:11:40.415
He down there sleeping in that truck,
ducking and dodging both of 'em.
98
00:11:40.416 --> 00:11:42.415
I told him, "Come on.
Let's go and see my sister."
99
00:11:42.416 --> 00:11:45.708
Boy Willie, when you and Lymon
planning on going back?
100
00:11:46.500 --> 00:11:50.207
Lymon say he's staying. Soon as we sell
them watermelons, I'm going back.
101
00:11:50.208 --> 00:11:53.041
That's what you need to do,
and you need to do it quick.
102
00:11:54.875 --> 00:11:57.415
I don't want
all that loud carrying-on around here.
103
00:11:57.416 --> 00:11:59.458
I'm surprised you ain't woke Maretha up.
104
00:12:41.666 --> 00:12:43.125
Is that the piano?
105
00:12:45.875 --> 00:12:46.875
Yeah.
106
00:12:49.791 --> 00:12:51.083
Look here, Lymon.
107
00:12:51.666 --> 00:12:55.291
You see all them carvings on it?
See, that's what I was talking about.
108
00:12:56.166 --> 00:12:59.290
You see how it's all carved up real nice
and polished and everything?
109
00:12:59.291 --> 00:13:03.499
- Never find you another piano like that.
- Yeah, that look real nice.
110
00:13:03.500 --> 00:13:06.207
I told you.
Get you a nice price for that piano.
111
00:13:06.208 --> 00:13:09.999
That's all Boy Willie talked about
the whole trip up here.
112
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:12.540
I got tired of hearing him
talking about the piano.
113
00:13:12.541 --> 00:13:14.249
- Hm.
- Hey, Doaker.
114
00:13:14.250 --> 00:13:16.041
Sutter's brother selling the land.
115
00:13:16.916 --> 00:13:18.458
Say he wanna sell it to me.
116
00:13:19.208 --> 00:13:21.249
- Hmm.
- That's why I come up here.
117
00:13:21.250 --> 00:13:22.957
Now, I got one part.
118
00:13:22.958 --> 00:13:25.124
I sell them watermelons,
that get me another.
119
00:13:25.125 --> 00:13:28.499
Then I get Berniece to sell that piano,
and I'll have the third part.
120
00:13:29.708 --> 00:13:32.749
- Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
- I'm gonna talk to her.
121
00:13:32.750 --> 00:13:35.832
When she see I got a chance
to get Sutter's land, she'll come around.
122
00:13:35.833 --> 00:13:40.165
You can get that thought out your mind.
Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
123
00:13:40.166 --> 00:13:41.749
I'm gonna talk to her.
124
00:13:43.458 --> 00:13:45.291
How much land Sutter got left?
125
00:13:45.791 --> 00:13:47.916
Got a hundred acres.
Good land.
126
00:13:48.416 --> 00:13:52.082
He done sold it piece by piece.
Kept the good part for himself.
127
00:13:52.083 --> 00:13:53.874
Now he got to give that up.
128
00:13:53.875 --> 00:13:56.625
His brother come down from Chicago
for the funeral.
129
00:13:57.125 --> 00:14:00.333
He up in Chicago. Got some kinda business
with soda-fountain equipment.
130
00:14:00.875 --> 00:14:04.499
He anxious to sell the land, Doaker.
He don't wanna be bothered with it.
131
00:14:04.500 --> 00:14:05.957
He called me to him and said
132
00:14:05.958 --> 00:14:08.624
'cause of how long our families
done known each other
133
00:14:08.625 --> 00:14:10.957
and how we been good friends and all,
134
00:14:10.958 --> 00:14:13.040
say he wanna sell it to me.
135
00:14:13.041 --> 00:14:14.749
Told him to give me two weeks.
136
00:14:14.750 --> 00:14:17.499
He said he'd wait on me.
That's why I come up here.
137
00:14:17.500 --> 00:14:20.874
I sell them watermelons,
get Berniece to sell that piano,
138
00:14:20.875 --> 00:14:23.457
put them two parts together
with the part I done saved,
139
00:14:23.458 --> 00:14:26.375
then walk in there, tip my hat,
140
00:14:26.875 --> 00:14:29.625
lay my money down on the table,
141
00:14:30.916 --> 00:14:33.208
get my deed, and walk on out.
142
00:14:34.500 --> 00:14:36.624
This time, I get to keep all the cotton.
143
00:14:36.625 --> 00:14:39.375
Hire me some men to work it for me. Huh?
144
00:14:39.875 --> 00:14:43.582
Gin my cotton, get my seed,
and I'll see y'all again next year.
145
00:14:43.583 --> 00:14:46.290
Might even plant some tobacco.
Or some oats.
146
00:14:46.291 --> 00:14:47.416
Mm. Hmm.
147
00:14:49.375 --> 00:14:52.791
You gonna have a hard time
convincing Berniece to sell that piano.
148
00:14:53.291 --> 00:14:55.332
Y'all remember Avery Brown
from down there?
149
00:14:55.333 --> 00:14:56.624
He up here now.
150
00:14:56.625 --> 00:14:59.749
Trying to get Berniece to marry him
after Crawley got killed.
151
00:14:59.750 --> 00:15:02.749
Been up here about two years.
Call himself a preacher now.
152
00:15:02.750 --> 00:15:04.207
I know Avery.
153
00:15:04.208 --> 00:15:07.249
I knew him when he used to work up
on the Willshaw place. Lymon knew him too.
154
00:15:07.250 --> 00:15:09.124
Yeah, he after Berniece to marry him.
155
00:15:09.125 --> 00:15:12.040
She keep telling him no,
but he won't give up.
156
00:15:12.041 --> 00:15:13.707
He keep pressing her on it.
157
00:15:13.708 --> 00:15:16.125
Avery think all white men is big shots.
158
00:15:16.666 --> 00:15:18.957
He don't know there's white men
ain't got as much as he got.
159
00:15:18.958 --> 00:15:21.415
He supposed to come past here
this morning.
160
00:15:21.416 --> 00:15:23.082
Berniece going with him down to the bank.
161
00:15:23.083 --> 00:15:24.999
See if he can get a loan
to start his church.
162
00:15:25.000 --> 00:15:28.915
See, that's why I know
Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
163
00:15:28.916 --> 00:15:31.832
He tried to get her to sell it
to help him start his church.
164
00:15:31.833 --> 00:15:33.625
Sent the man around and everything.
165
00:15:34.791 --> 00:15:35.790
What man?
166
00:15:35.791 --> 00:15:38.249
Some white fella who going around
to colored people's houses
167
00:15:38.250 --> 00:15:39.957
looking to buy musical instruments.
168
00:15:39.958 --> 00:15:41.457
He'd buy anything.
169
00:15:41.458 --> 00:15:45.249
Drums, guitars, harmonicas, pianos.
170
00:15:45.250 --> 00:15:49.165
Avery sent him past here.
He looked at that piano, got excited.
171
00:15:49.166 --> 00:15:51.290
Offered her a nice price.
172
00:15:51.291 --> 00:15:54.375
She turned him down,
got on Avery for sending him past.
173
00:15:54.875 --> 00:15:55.833
Hm.
174
00:16:09.250 --> 00:16:11.166
It's always something.
175
00:16:12.125 --> 00:16:13.291
Now, what the...
176
00:17:27.791 --> 00:17:30.415
Doaker! Doaker!
177
00:17:32.041 --> 00:17:32.957
Doaker!
178
00:17:32.958 --> 00:17:35.207
- Doaker!
- Berniece? Berniece?
179
00:17:36.708 --> 00:17:37.707
Berniece?
180
00:17:37.708 --> 00:17:40.124
Lord, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
181
00:17:40.125 --> 00:17:43.582
- Hey, what's going on?
- It's all right. I got you.
182
00:17:43.583 --> 00:17:45.666
Come on. Come on. Sit down. Sit down.
183
00:17:46.166 --> 00:17:47.374
Come on. What is it?
184
00:17:47.375 --> 00:17:48.915
- Sutter--
- What's the matter?
185
00:17:48.916 --> 00:17:50.832
Sutter's standing up there in the hall.
186
00:17:50.833 --> 00:17:53.082
- Boy Willie?
- Ain't nobody up here.
187
00:17:53.083 --> 00:17:54.249
Boy Willie!
188
00:17:56.375 --> 00:17:58.666
Hey, Doaker.
What's wrong with her?
189
00:17:59.750 --> 00:18:01.165
Hey, Berniece, what's wrong?
190
00:18:01.166 --> 00:18:03.749
She says she seen Sutter's ghost.
191
00:18:03.750 --> 00:18:05.749
Seen what?
She ain't seen no Sutter.
192
00:18:05.750 --> 00:18:07.165
Boy, he was standing right there.
193
00:18:07.166 --> 00:18:09.415
That's in Berniece's head.
Nobody up there.
194
00:18:09.416 --> 00:18:11.957
- Go on up there, Doaker.
- I take your word for it.
195
00:18:11.958 --> 00:18:16.082
Berniece talking about what she seen,
and she said Sutter's ghost in the hall.
196
00:18:16.083 --> 00:18:17.332
She ain't just made that up.
197
00:18:17.333 --> 00:18:19.290
She up there dreaming.
She ain't seen no ghost.
198
00:18:19.291 --> 00:18:22.124
You want a glass of water?
Get a glass of water, Boy Willie.
199
00:18:22.125 --> 00:18:24.207
She don't need water.
She ain't seen nothing.
200
00:18:24.208 --> 00:18:26.415
Go up there and look.
Ain't nobody up there but Maretha.
201
00:18:26.416 --> 00:18:28.582
- Let Berniece tell it.
- Ain't stopping her.
202
00:18:28.583 --> 00:18:30.082
- Go on.
- I just--
203
00:18:30.083 --> 00:18:32.624
I come out my room to come back down here,
204
00:18:32.625 --> 00:18:35.290
and... and Sutter
was standing there in the hall.
205
00:18:36.375 --> 00:18:37.665
What he look like?
206
00:18:37.666 --> 00:18:40.791
He look like Sutter.
Look like he always look.
207
00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:44.957
Sutter couldn't find his way
from Big Sandy to Little Sandy.
208
00:18:44.958 --> 00:18:47.332
How he gonna find his way
all the way up here to Pittsburgh?
209
00:18:47.333 --> 00:18:48.957
Sutter ain't even heard of Pittsburgh.
210
00:18:48.958 --> 00:18:51.082
Let Berniece finish.
I wanna hear what she got to say.
211
00:18:51.083 --> 00:18:53.874
Just... just... just standing there
with a blue suit on.
212
00:18:53.875 --> 00:18:56.290
Man never left Marlin County
when he was living.
213
00:18:56.291 --> 00:18:59.249
He gonna come all the way up here
now that he's dead?
214
00:18:59.250 --> 00:19:00.374
Now, go on, Berniece.
215
00:19:00.375 --> 00:19:02.707
If Berniece seen him
like she think she seen him,
216
00:19:02.708 --> 00:19:03.957
she'd still be running.
217
00:19:03.958 --> 00:19:05.750
Go on. Don't pay Boy Willie no mind.
218
00:19:08.333 --> 00:19:09.666
Did he have on a hat?
219
00:19:10.166 --> 00:19:11.957
Just had on that blue suit.
220
00:19:11.958 --> 00:19:15.833
He just stood there looking at me,
calling Boy Willie's name.
221
00:19:17.083 --> 00:19:18.457
What he calling my name for?
222
00:19:18.458 --> 00:19:20.582
I believe you pushed him in the well.
223
00:19:20.583 --> 00:19:22.499
Now what kind of sense
that make?
224
00:19:22.500 --> 00:19:25.332
You telling me I'mma go out
and hide in the weeds
225
00:19:25.333 --> 00:19:28.165
with... with all them dogs and things
he got around there?
226
00:19:28.166 --> 00:19:29.457
I'mma go out and hide
227
00:19:29.458 --> 00:19:33.707
and wait till I catch him looking down
his well just right,
228
00:19:33.708 --> 00:19:36.040
then I'mma run over and push him in?
229
00:19:36.041 --> 00:19:38.290
A great big old 340-pound man.
230
00:19:38.291 --> 00:19:39.707
Well, what he call your name for?
231
00:19:39.708 --> 00:19:41.874
He was bending over,
looking down his well, woman.
232
00:19:41.875 --> 00:19:44.874
How he know who pushed him?
Could have been anybody.
233
00:19:44.875 --> 00:19:47.165
Where was you
when Sutter fell down his well?
234
00:19:47.166 --> 00:19:48.333
Where was Doaker?
235
00:19:49.291 --> 00:19:51.290
Me and Lymon
was over in Stoner County. Tell her.
236
00:19:51.291 --> 00:19:54.165
The Ghosts of the Yellow Dog got Sutter.
That's what happened to him.
237
00:19:54.166 --> 00:19:56.624
You can talk all that Ghosts
of the Yellow Dog stuff if you want.
238
00:19:56.625 --> 00:19:57.874
I know better.
239
00:19:57.875 --> 00:20:02.165
Ghosts of the Yellow Dog pushed him.
That's what the people say.
240
00:20:06.250 --> 00:20:08.207
- That's him.
- I see him.
241
00:20:08.208 --> 00:20:09.249
There.
242
00:20:09.250 --> 00:20:11.749
They found him in his well,
and all the people say
243
00:20:11.750 --> 00:20:14.916
it must be the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog,
just like all them other men.
244
00:20:16.291 --> 00:20:18.249
Come talking about
he looking for me.
245
00:20:18.250 --> 00:20:20.582
That ain't nothing but in Berniece's head.
246
00:20:20.583 --> 00:20:22.999
Ain't no telling what she's liable
to come up with next.
247
00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:25.624
Boy Willie, I want you and Lymon
to go ahead and leave my house.
248
00:20:25.625 --> 00:20:27.040
Just go on somewhere.
249
00:20:27.041 --> 00:20:29.499
You bring trouble with you
everywhere you go.
250
00:20:29.500 --> 00:20:32.083
If it wasn't for you,
Crawley would still be alive.
251
00:20:36.416 --> 00:20:37.500
Crawley what?
252
00:20:39.541 --> 00:20:41.790
I had nothing to do
with Crawley getting killed.
253
00:20:41.791 --> 00:20:44.165
Crawley three time seven.
He had his own mind.
254
00:20:44.166 --> 00:20:47.332
Just go on and leave. Let Sutter
go somewhere else looking for you.
255
00:20:47.333 --> 00:20:48.415
I'm leaving!
256
00:20:48.416 --> 00:20:51.791
Soon as we sell them watermelons.
Other than that, I ain't going nowhere.
257
00:20:52.708 --> 00:20:54.624
Hell.
258
00:20:54.625 --> 00:20:55.958
I just got here.
259
00:20:59.666 --> 00:21:02.000
Talking about Sutter looking for me.
260
00:21:03.916 --> 00:21:07.874
Sutter was looking for that piano.
That's what Sutter was looking for.
261
00:21:07.875 --> 00:21:11.208
He had to die to find out
where that piano was at.
262
00:21:12.750 --> 00:21:14.708
If I was you, I'd get rid of it.
263
00:21:15.666 --> 00:21:17.332
That's the way
to get rid of Sutter's ghost.
264
00:21:17.333 --> 00:21:18.415
Get rid of that piano.
265
00:21:18.416 --> 00:21:19.999
I want you and Lymon
266
00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:22.124
to take all of this confusion
out of my house.
267
00:21:22.125 --> 00:21:24.665
Tell her, Doaker.
What kind of sense that make?
268
00:21:24.666 --> 00:21:25.874
I told you, Lymon,
269
00:21:25.875 --> 00:21:28.207
soon as Berniece see me,
she was gonna start something.
270
00:21:28.208 --> 00:21:29.207
Didn't I tell you that?
271
00:21:29.208 --> 00:21:31.624
Now she done made up
that story about Sutter
272
00:21:31.625 --> 00:21:33.374
just to tell me to leave her house.
273
00:21:33.375 --> 00:21:36.207
Hell, I ain't going nowhere
till we sell them watermelons.
274
00:21:36.208 --> 00:21:38.374
Well, why don't you go out there
and sell 'em, then?
275
00:21:38.375 --> 00:21:40.458
Sell 'em and go on back.
276
00:21:41.583 --> 00:21:43.291
We waiting till the people get up.
277
00:21:44.541 --> 00:21:47.707
Boy Willie say if you get out too early,
wake the people up,
278
00:21:47.708 --> 00:21:50.832
they get mad at you
and won't buy nothing from you.
279
00:21:50.833 --> 00:21:54.165
Well, you won't be waiting long.
You done let the sun catch up with you.
280
00:21:54.166 --> 00:21:55.875
This the time folk here be getting up.
281
00:22:00.500 --> 00:22:03.125
Come on, Doaker. Walk up there with me.
282
00:22:03.791 --> 00:22:07.666
Let me get Maretha up and get her started.
I gotta get ready myself.
283
00:22:08.625 --> 00:22:09.666
Boy Willie,
284
00:22:10.916 --> 00:22:13.040
just go on out there
and sell them watermelons,
285
00:22:13.041 --> 00:22:15.540
and you and Lymon leave my house.
286
00:22:20.166 --> 00:22:23.625
You see Sutter up there,
you tell him I'm down here waiting on him.
287
00:22:36.791 --> 00:22:38.458
What if she see him again?
288
00:22:39.125 --> 00:22:41.541
That's just all in her head.
Ain't no ghost up there.
289
00:22:47.333 --> 00:22:49.457
Ah!
290
00:22:50.916 --> 00:22:53.125
You too quick for me.
291
00:22:55.791 --> 00:22:57.250
Hey, sugar!
292
00:22:58.125 --> 00:23:00.333
Come on, give me a hug!
293
00:23:01.166 --> 00:23:03.666
Come on, give Uncle Boy Willie a hug.
Don't be shy.
294
00:23:04.375 --> 00:23:08.207
Look at her, Doaker.
She done got bigger. Ain't she got big?
295
00:23:08.208 --> 00:23:09.915
Oh yeah. She getting up there.
296
00:23:11.458 --> 00:23:13.625

It's your Uncle Boy Willie

299
00:23:18.833 --> 00:23:19.833
Mm.
300
00:23:20.666 --> 00:23:23.416

00:23:24.541 --> 00:23:27.415
That there is Lymon. He my friend.

302
00:23:27.416 --> 00:23:31.208
How you doing?
You look just like your mama.
303
00:23:31.833 --> 00:23:34.125
I remember you
when you was wearing diapers.
304
00:23:35.625 --> 00:23:40.041
When you gonna come down South and see me?
Uncle Boy Willie gonna get him a farm.
305
00:23:40.541 --> 00:23:43.957
Gonna get him a great big old farm.

That dime say you can't be bashful.

00:24:52.375 --> 00:24:53.375
There you go.
325
00:24:54.791 --> 00:24:55.791
Take your time.
326
00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:03.999
- What? That's it?
- Yes, that's it.
327
00:25:04.000 --> 00:25:06.791

328
00:25:08.208 --> 00:25:09.833
Wait. Hold on. That ain't it.

00:25:20.833 --> 00:25:22.125
See what I'm doing?
331
00:25:23.500 --> 00:25:25.458
That's what you call the boogie-woogie.
332
00:25:25.958 --> 00:25:28.000
See, you can get up and dance to that.

Go on. You do it.
338
00:25:43.791 --> 00:25:45.332
I got to read it on the paper.
339
00:25:45.333 --> 00:25:47.708
You don't need to read no paper.
Just do like this here.
340
00:25:48.208 --> 00:25:49.250
Maretha!
341
00:25:49.750 --> 00:25:52.416
You get up here and get ready to go
so you be on time.
342
00:25:53.291 --> 00:25:54.374
I got to go.
343
00:25:56.666 --> 00:26:00.749
Your mama tell you about that piano?
You know how them pictures got on there?
344
00:26:00.750 --> 00:26:04.040
She say it's just always been like that
since she got it.
345
00:26:04.041 --> 00:26:06.957
You hear that, Doaker?
You up here in the house with Berniece.
346
00:26:06.958 --> 00:26:08.874
I ain't got nothing to do with that.
347
00:26:08.875 --> 00:26:11.290
I don't get in the way
of Berniece raising her.
348
00:26:11.291 --> 00:26:12.291
Hmm.
349
00:26:13.458 --> 00:26:15.791
Tell your mama
to tell you about that piano.
350
00:26:17.166 --> 00:26:18.083
Hmm.
351
00:26:21.041 --> 00:26:22.041
You feel that?
352
00:26:23.916 --> 00:26:26.125
That's your family. Your blood.
353
00:26:26.708 --> 00:26:29.250
Now, you ask her
how them pictures got on there.
354
00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:31.915
If she don't tell you, I'll tell you.
355
00:26:31.916 --> 00:26:33.333
Maretha!
356
00:26:33.916 --> 00:26:35.125
I got to get ready to go.
357
00:26:36.625 --> 00:26:37.708

Look at him.
376
00:27:58.291 --> 00:28:02.000
Look at him. He don't know what to say.
He wasn't expecting to see me.
377
00:28:03.916 --> 00:28:06.249
That Lymon? Lymon Jackson.
378
00:28:06.250 --> 00:28:07.874
Yeah. Yeah, you know Lymon.
379
00:28:07.875 --> 00:28:09.541
Berniece be ready in a minute.
380
00:28:10.208 --> 00:28:12.165
Doaker say
you a preacher now.
381
00:28:12.166 --> 00:28:13.957
What we supposed to call you?
382
00:28:13.958 --> 00:28:15.082
Reverend?
383
00:28:15.083 --> 00:28:18.290
I remember you as plain old Avery.
When you get to be a preacher, nigger?
384
00:28:18.291 --> 00:28:22.124
Avery say he gonna be a preacher
so he don't have to work.
385
00:28:22.125 --> 00:28:24.790
I remember you was up
on the Wilshaw place planting cotton.
386
00:28:24.791 --> 00:28:26.415
You wasn't thinking about no reverend.
387
00:28:26.416 --> 00:28:29.582
That must be your truck out there.
I saw all them watermelons in that truck.
388
00:28:29.583 --> 00:28:31.790
I was trying to figure out what it was.
389
00:28:31.791 --> 00:28:34.624
Me and Lymon selling watermelons.
That's Lymon's truck.
390
00:28:34.625 --> 00:28:36.582
Berniece say y'all going to the bank.
391
00:28:36.583 --> 00:28:39.582
Yeah, they gave me
a half a day off work.
392
00:28:39.583 --> 00:28:43.374
I got an appointment to talk to the bank
about getting a loan to start my church.
393
00:28:43.375 --> 00:28:46.540
Lymon say preachers ain't got to work.
Where you working at, nigger?
394
00:28:46.541 --> 00:28:50.582
Avery got him a good job. He working
in one of them skyscrapers downtown.
395
00:28:50.583 --> 00:28:54.165
Yeah, I'm working down there
in the Gulf Building, running an elevator.
396
00:28:55.416 --> 00:28:57.624
I got a pension and everything.
397
00:28:57.625 --> 00:28:59.666
They even give you a turkey
on Thanksgiving.
398
00:29:01.500 --> 00:29:03.458
How many of them watermelons
you wanna buy?
399
00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:07.499
I thought you was gonna give me one,
seeing you got a truck full.
400
00:29:07.500 --> 00:29:08.791
I'll give you one.
401
00:29:09.916 --> 00:29:12.750
Get two. I'll give you two for a dollar.
402
00:29:13.875 --> 00:29:15.625
I can't eat but one.
403
00:29:17.333 --> 00:29:18.915
Oh, how... how much are they?
404
00:29:18.916 --> 00:29:21.625
Oh, nigger, you know
I'll give you a watermelon.
405
00:29:23.416 --> 00:29:26.707
Go on. Take as many as you want.
Just leave some for me and Lymon to sell.
406
00:29:26.708 --> 00:29:28.125
I don't need but one, now.
407
00:29:29.625 --> 00:29:31.915
Doaker say you sent
some white man past the house
408
00:29:31.916 --> 00:29:33.375
to take a look at that piano.
409
00:29:34.000 --> 00:29:37.249
He going around colored people's houses
looking to buy musical instruments.
410
00:29:37.250 --> 00:29:40.165
Yeah, but Berniece say
she ain't wanna sell that piano.
411
00:29:40.166 --> 00:29:43.374
After she told me about it,
I can see why she ain't wanna sell it.
412
00:29:43.375 --> 00:29:44.833
What's the man's name?
413
00:29:45.583 --> 00:29:48.415
I forgot the man's name.
It was a while back ago now.
414
00:29:48.416 --> 00:29:52.165
I believe he gave Berniece a card
with his name and telephone number on it,
415
00:29:52.166 --> 00:29:53.457
but she throwed it away.
416
00:29:55.833 --> 00:29:58.124
Maretha, run back upstairs
and get my pocketbook.
417
00:29:58.125 --> 00:30:01.208
And wipe the hair grease
off your forehead. Go ahead. Hurry up.
418
00:30:04.250 --> 00:30:05.500
How you doing, Avery?
419
00:30:06.291 --> 00:30:08.832
You done got all dressed up.
You look nice.
420
00:30:08.833 --> 00:30:12.415
Doaker, I'm gonna stop on Logan Street.
Want me to get you anything?
421
00:30:12.416 --> 00:30:15.290
Oh! You can pick me up some ham hocks,
you going down there.
422
00:30:15.291 --> 00:30:18.708
See if you can get 'em smoked.
They ain't got that, get the fresh ones.
423
00:30:19.500 --> 00:30:21.082
We gonna take the streetcar?
424
00:30:21.083 --> 00:30:23.999
Me and Avery gonna drop you
at the settlement house.
425
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:26.874
You mind them people down there.
Don't you be showing them your color.
426
00:30:26.875 --> 00:30:28.540
- Come, pretty girl.
- Boy Willie.
427
00:30:28.541 --> 00:30:31.290
I expect you and Lyman to be out
selling watermelons.
428
00:30:33.666 --> 00:30:35.500
I'll be seeing you again,
Boy Willie.
429
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:37.125
Hey, Berniece.
430
00:30:38.291 --> 00:30:40.708
What's the name of that man
Avery sent past here,
431
00:30:41.250 --> 00:30:42.666
say he wanna buy the piano?
432
00:30:44.625 --> 00:30:45.749
I knew it.
433
00:30:45.750 --> 00:30:48.749
I knew it when I first seent you.
I knew you was up to something.
434
00:30:48.750 --> 00:30:51.375
Sutter's brother say

435
00:30:52.625 --> 00:30:54.415
Yeah, he waiting on me now.
436

Told me he'd give me two weeks.
Now, I got one part.

00:30:57.416 --> 00:30:58.958

438
00:30:59.833 --> 00:31:00.833
get another part.
439
00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:04.999
- We could sell that piano.
- I ain't selling that piano, Boy Willie.
440
00:31:05.000 --> 00:31:08.125
And if that's why you come up here,
then you can forget about it.
441
00:31:08.625 --> 00:31:10.790
Doaker, I'll see you later.
442
00:31:10.791 --> 00:31:12.915
Boy Willie ain't nothing
but a whole lot of mouth.
443
00:31:12.916 --> 00:31:14.540
Don't pay him no mind.
444
00:31:14.541 --> 00:31:17.415
And if he come up here
thinking he gonna sell that piano,
445
00:31:17.416 --> 00:31:19.375
then he done come up here for nothing.
446
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:31.708
Come on, Lymon.
You ready to go sell these watermelons?
447
00:31:45.458 --> 00:31:47.541
Come on. Pick your feet up.
448
00:31:48.666 --> 00:31:49.624
Hey, Doaker.
449
00:31:49.625 --> 00:31:50.666
Hey, Al.
450
00:32:02.625 --> 00:32:03.500
Lymon.
451
00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:05.290
Sh...
452
00:32:05.291 --> 00:32:06.500
It ain't catching!
453
00:32:08.666 --> 00:32:09.540
See you!
454
00:32:09.541 --> 00:32:10.458
Nigger!
455
00:32:22.666 --> 00:32:23.583
Hey!
456
00:32:24.416 --> 00:32:25.832
It caught!
457
00:32:40.916 --> 00:32:43.249
So the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog
got Sutter.
458
00:32:43.250 --> 00:32:46.499
And Berniece say she done seen his ghost.
459
00:32:46.500 --> 00:32:48.541
Come here, brother.
460
00:32:49.750 --> 00:32:52.124
I'll tell you outright,
if I see Sutter's ghost,
461
00:32:52.125 --> 00:32:54.540
I'll be on the first thing I find
that got wheels on it.
462
00:32:55.500 --> 00:32:57.625
Wining Boy.
463
00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:02.791
Where you coming from? Where you been?
I know you want another drink.
464
00:33:04.708 --> 00:33:06.165
You know Cleotha died.
465
00:33:06.166 --> 00:33:09.665
Oh, I heard that
last time I was down there.
466
00:33:09.666 --> 00:33:12.207
- Oh, I was sorry to hear that.
- Yeah.
467
00:33:12.208 --> 00:33:15.958
One of her friends wrote and told me.
I never knew she was sick.
468
00:33:16.458 --> 00:33:19.333
They was nailing her coffin shut
by the time I heard about it.
469
00:33:19.958 --> 00:33:23.165
Cleotha always did have
a nice way about her.
470
00:33:23.166 --> 00:33:26.915
Man, that woman was something.
I used to thank the Lord.
471
00:33:26.916 --> 00:33:29.415
Many a night I sat up
and looked out over my life.
472
00:33:29.416 --> 00:33:31.874
Said, "Well, I had Cleotha."
473
00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:36.540
When it didn't look like there was
nothing else for me, I said, "Thank God."
474
00:33:36.541 --> 00:33:38.166
"At least I had that."
475
00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:44.083
If ever... I go anywhere in this life,
476
00:33:45.250 --> 00:33:47.541
I done known a good woman.
477
00:33:48.083 --> 00:33:49.083
Mm-hmm.
478
00:33:51.833 --> 00:33:53.832
And that used to hold me
to the next morning.
479
00:33:56.333 --> 00:33:57.665
You... you a fool.
480
00:33:57.666 --> 00:33:59.457
Aw, hell!
481
00:33:59.458 --> 00:34:00.832
Ha ha!
482
00:34:00.833 --> 00:34:03.290
Look here! We was just talking about you.
483
00:34:03.291 --> 00:34:05.832
Doaker say you left out of here
with a whole sack of money.
484
00:34:05.833 --> 00:34:07.957
I told him we wasn't gonna see you
till you got broke.
485
00:34:07.958 --> 00:34:10.665
What you mean "broke"?
I got a whole pocketful of money.
486
00:34:14.000 --> 00:34:17.165
Doaker say Berniece asked you
for three dollars. You got mad and left.
487
00:34:17.166 --> 00:34:19.832
Berniece try to rule over you too much
for me. That's why I left.
488
00:34:19.833 --> 00:34:21.707
It wasn't about no three dollars.
489
00:34:21.708 --> 00:34:24.540
Wining Boy, where you coming from?
Where you been?
490
00:34:24.541 --> 00:34:26.332
I been down in Kansas City.
491
00:34:26.333 --> 00:34:28.582
You remember Lymon? Lymon Jackson.
492
00:34:28.583 --> 00:34:31.165
Yeah, I used to know his daddy.
493
00:34:32.250 --> 00:34:36.832
Where you getting these sacks of money?
Doaker say you left with a sack of money.
494
00:34:36.833 --> 00:34:38.207
Turn some of it loose.
495
00:34:38.208 --> 00:34:40.124
I was just fixing to ask you for $5.
496
00:34:41.083 --> 00:34:43.124
Doaker tell you about Sutter?
497
00:34:43.125 --> 00:34:46.374
The Ghosts of the Yellow Dog got him
about three weeks ago.
498
00:34:46.375 --> 00:34:50.332
Berniece done seen his ghost
and everything. He right upstairs.
499
00:34:50.333 --> 00:34:54.332
Hey, Sutter! Wining Boy here.
Come on and get a drink.
500
00:34:54.333 --> 00:34:56.915
How many that make
the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog done got?
501
00:34:56.916 --> 00:35:00.165
Must be about nine or ten,
eleven or twelve. I don't know.
502
00:35:00.166 --> 00:35:01.250
Mm.
503
00:35:01.958 --> 00:35:05.040
Berniece say she don't believe all that
about the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog.
504
00:35:05.041 --> 00:35:07.207
She ain't gotta believe.
505
00:35:07.208 --> 00:35:10.540
You go ask them white folks
in Sunflower County if they believe.
506
00:35:10.541 --> 00:35:13.124
You go ask Sutter if he believe.
507
00:35:13.125 --> 00:35:14.999
I don't care if Berniece believe or not.
508
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:18.957
Berniece don't believe in nothing.
She just think she believe.
509
00:35:18.958 --> 00:35:20.291
Let's not get on Berniece now.
510
00:35:23.541 --> 00:35:26.291
Doaker, give me a drink.
I see Wining Boy got his glass.
511
00:35:32.708 --> 00:35:35.999
Wining Boy, what you doing in Kansas City?
What they got down there?
512
00:35:36.000 --> 00:35:40.624
Yeah, I hear they got
some nice-looking women in Kansas City.
513
00:35:40.625 --> 00:35:43.124
I sure like to go down there and find out.
514
00:35:43.125 --> 00:35:45.457
Man, the women down there
is something else.
515
00:35:46.500 --> 00:35:49.540
Uh, you gonna sit up in here
and drink up my whiskey?
516
00:35:49.541 --> 00:35:51.290
Leave a dollar on the table
when you get up.
517
00:35:51.291 --> 00:35:53.082
You showing your hospitality.
518
00:35:53.083 --> 00:35:55.500
I know I ain't got to pay
for your hospitality.
519
00:35:56.000 --> 00:35:59.790
Doaker say they had you and Lymon
down on the Parchman Farm.
520
00:35:59.791 --> 00:36:01.540
Had you on my old stomping grounds.
521
00:36:01.541 --> 00:36:05.207
Me and Lymon was hauling wood
for Jim Miller
522
00:36:05.208 --> 00:36:07.125
and keeping us a little bit to sell.
523
00:36:08.083 --> 00:36:09.665
That's when Crawley got killed.
524
00:36:13.333 --> 00:36:15.333
They ambushed us right there.
525
00:36:16.666 --> 00:36:20.374
Me and Boy Willie got away,
but sheriff got us.
526
00:36:20.375 --> 00:36:22.374
Say we was stealing wood.
527
00:36:22.375 --> 00:36:23.999
They... they shot me in my stomach.
528
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:26.207
They looking for Lymon down there now.
529
00:36:26.208 --> 00:36:28.832
They rounded him up
and threw him in jail for not working.
530
00:36:28.833 --> 00:36:31.249
- Fined me $100.
- Mm-hmm.
531
00:36:31.250 --> 00:36:33.749
Mr. Stovall come and paid my $100,
532
00:36:33.750 --> 00:36:37.790
and the judge say I got to work for him
to pay him back his $100.
533
00:36:37.791 --> 00:36:41.082
Soon as Stovall turned his back,
Lymon was gone.
534
00:36:42.208 --> 00:36:45.207
I told Boy Willie I'm gonna stay up here.
I ain't going back with him.
535
00:36:45.208 --> 00:36:48.458
Ain't nobody twisting your arm
to make you go back. Do what you wanna do.
536
00:36:48.958 --> 00:36:51.832
I'll go back with you.
I'm on my way down there.
537
00:36:51.833 --> 00:36:54.290
You gonna take the train?
I'm gonna take the train.
538
00:36:54.291 --> 00:36:56.166
They treat you better up here.
539
00:36:56.875 --> 00:36:59.040
I ain't worried
about nobody mistreating me.
540
00:36:59.041 --> 00:37:01.249
They treat you
like you let them treat you.
541
00:37:01.250 --> 00:37:03.749
They mistreat me,
I mistreat them right back.
542
00:37:03.750 --> 00:37:06.124
Ain't no difference
in me and the white man.
543
00:37:06.125 --> 00:37:10.082
That's why you gonna end up
back down there on the Parchman Farm.
544
00:37:10.083 --> 00:37:14.124
I ain't thinking about no Parchman Farm.
See, you liable to go back before me.
545
00:37:14.125 --> 00:37:16.165
They work you too hard down there.
546
00:37:16.166 --> 00:37:18.832
All that weeding and hoeing
and chopping down trees.
547
00:37:18.833 --> 00:37:20.499
I ain't like all that.
548
00:37:20.500 --> 00:37:23.415
You ain't got to like your job
on the Parchman.
549
00:37:23.416 --> 00:37:26.374
Tell him, Doaker. The only one
got to like his job is the water boy.
550
00:37:26.375 --> 00:37:30.207
And if he don't like his job,
he need to set that bucket down.
551
00:37:30.208 --> 00:37:31.874
That's what they told Lymon.
552
00:37:33.083 --> 00:37:34.582
They had Lymon on water,
553
00:37:34.583 --> 00:37:37.082
and everybody got mad at him
'cause he was lazy.
554
00:37:37.083 --> 00:37:38.332
That water was heavy.
555
00:37:40.166 --> 00:37:44.000
Had Lymon down there singing.

Doaker like that part.

00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:45.708
He like that railroad part.
610
00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:53.583
Doaker sound like Tangleye.
He can't sing a lick.
611
00:40:58.333 --> 00:40:59.415
Hey, Doaker,
612
00:40:59.416 --> 00:41:01.833
they still talk about you
down there on Parchman.
613
00:41:03.791 --> 00:41:06.458
They ask me, "You Doaker Boy's nephew?"
614
00:41:08.875 --> 00:41:10.041
I say, "Yeah."
615
00:41:11.291 --> 00:41:12.791
"Me and him is family."
616
00:41:19.583 --> 00:41:23.250
They treated me all right as soon as
I told them that. Say, "That's my uncle."
617
00:41:24.458 --> 00:41:26.541
Hmm.
618
00:41:27.083 --> 00:41:30.250
I don't never wanna see
none of them niggers no more.
619
00:41:39.541 --> 00:41:41.000
I don't wanna see 'em either.
620
00:41:55.541 --> 00:41:56.541
Hey, Wining Boy.
621
00:41:57.875 --> 00:42:01.250
Play some piano.
Come on, you a piano player.
622
00:42:01.833 --> 00:42:04.832
Play some piano. Come on.
Lymon wanna hear you.
623
00:42:04.833 --> 00:42:06.458
I give that piano up.
624
00:42:07.500 --> 00:42:09.499
That was the best thing
that ever happened to me,
625
00:42:09.500 --> 00:42:10.958
getting rid of that piano.
626
00:42:11.916 --> 00:42:14.915
That piano got so big,
and I'm carrying it around on my back.
627
00:42:14.916 --> 00:42:16.625
I don't wish that on nobody.
628
00:42:18.166 --> 00:42:21.375
See, you think it's all fun
being a recording star.
629
00:42:22.791 --> 00:42:26.290
Got to carrying that piano around,
and, man, did I get slow.
630
00:42:26.291 --> 00:42:27.540
Got just like molasses.
631
00:42:27.541 --> 00:42:31.375
The world just slipping by me,
and I'm walking around with that piano.
632
00:42:32.875 --> 00:42:36.125
Now, the first three or four years
of that is fun.
633
00:42:37.208 --> 00:42:39.499
You can't get enough whiskey,
634
00:42:39.500 --> 00:42:42.290
and you can't get enough women.
635
00:42:42.291 --> 00:42:46.291
Hell! You don't never get tired
of playing that piano.
636
00:42:48.750 --> 00:42:50.583
But that only lasts so long.
637
00:42:51.958 --> 00:42:55.374
You look up one day,
and you hate the whiskey,
638
00:42:55.375 --> 00:42:57.165
and you hate the women,
639
00:42:57.166 --> 00:43:00.333
and you hate... the piano!
640
00:43:02.666 --> 00:43:03.958
But that's all you got.
641
00:43:04.916 --> 00:43:06.208
Can't do nothing else.
642
00:43:06.958 --> 00:43:09.333
All you know how to do is play the piano.
643
00:43:10.791 --> 00:43:12.000
Now who am I?
644
00:43:13.375 --> 00:43:15.666
Am I me, or am I the piano player?
645
00:43:19.208 --> 00:43:22.249
Sometime it seem like the only thing to do
is shoot the piano player
646
00:43:22.250 --> 00:43:24.583
'cause he the cause
of all the trouble I'm having.
647
00:43:28.041 --> 00:43:30.625
What you gonna do
when your troubles get like mine?
648
00:43:34.250 --> 00:43:35.875
If I knew how to play...
649
00:43:37.958 --> 00:43:39.000
I'd play.
650
00:43:41.583 --> 00:43:43.500
Ooh, that's a nice piano.
651
00:43:45.208 --> 00:43:47.165
If I had it, I'd sell it.
652
00:43:47.166 --> 00:43:49.624
Unless I knew how to play it
like Wining Boy.
653
00:43:49.625 --> 00:43:51.957
You'd get a nice price
for that piano.
654
00:43:51.958 --> 00:43:53.832
- Mm-hmm.
- Now, I'm gonna tell you something.
655
00:43:53.833 --> 00:43:55.374
See, Lymon don't know this,
656
00:43:55.375 --> 00:43:56.874
but I'm gonna tell you
657
00:43:56.875 --> 00:44:00.582
why me and Wining Boy say
Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
658
00:44:00.583 --> 00:44:03.749
Well, she ain't got to sell it.
I'm gonna sell it.
659
00:44:03.750 --> 00:44:06.707
Berniece ain't got no more rights
to that piano than I do.
660
00:44:06.708 --> 00:44:08.916
I'm talking to the man.
661
00:44:09.958 --> 00:44:12.041
Let me talk to the man.
662
00:44:22.166 --> 00:44:26.082
Now, to understand why we say that,
to understand about this piano...
663
00:44:27.125 --> 00:44:29.165
...you got to go back to slavery time.
664
00:44:29.166 --> 00:44:33.124
See, our family was owned
by a man named Robert Sutter.
665
00:44:33.125 --> 00:44:35.665
That's Sutter's grandfather. All right.
666
00:44:35.666 --> 00:44:38.874
The piano was owned
by a fella named Joel Nolander.
667
00:44:38.875 --> 00:44:41.541
He's one of the Nolander brothers
from down in Georgia.
668
00:44:42.041 --> 00:44:43.915
It was coming up
on Sutter's wedding anniversary,
669
00:44:43.916 --> 00:44:45.874
and he's looking to buy his wife...
670
00:44:45.875 --> 00:44:48.374
Miss Ophelia was her name.
671
00:44:48.375 --> 00:44:50.790
He's looking to buy her
an anniversary present.
672
00:44:50.791 --> 00:44:53.833
Only thing with him
is he ain't had no money.
673
00:44:54.500 --> 00:44:57.458
But he had some niggers.
674
00:44:59.583 --> 00:45:01.499
So he asked Mr. Nolander
675
00:45:01.500 --> 00:45:05.625
to see if maybe he could trade off
some of his niggers for that piano.
676
00:45:06.125 --> 00:45:09.499
Told him he would give him
one and a half niggers for it.
677
00:45:09.500 --> 00:45:10.957
That's just how he said it.
678
00:45:10.958 --> 00:45:14.500
Say he could have one full grown
and one half grown.
679
00:45:15.125 --> 00:45:19.790
Mr. Nolander agreed, only he say
he got to be the one to pick 'em.
680
00:45:30.458 --> 00:45:33.666
So Sutter lined his niggers up...
681
00:45:36.250 --> 00:45:39.500
and Mr. Nolander looked 'em over.
682
00:45:46.666 --> 00:45:50.083
And out of the whole bunch,
he picked my grandmother.
683
00:45:51.333 --> 00:45:53.374
Her name was Berniece, same like Berniece.
684
00:45:53.375 --> 00:45:56.415
- Come with me, Mama. Bring your boy.
- No!
685
00:45:56.416 --> 00:45:57.749
- Come with me!
- No!
686
00:45:57.750 --> 00:45:59.207
And he picked my daddy
687
00:45:59.208 --> 00:46:01.458
when he wasn't nothing
but a little boy, nine years old.
688
00:46:02.041 --> 00:46:03.415
They made the trade-off,
689
00:46:03.416 --> 00:46:06.582
and Miss Ophelia
was so happy with that piano,
690
00:46:06.583 --> 00:46:10.540
it got to be just about all she would do
was play on that piano.
691
00:46:10.541 --> 00:46:13.332
Just get up in the morning,
get all dressed up,
692
00:46:13.333 --> 00:46:15.332
and sit down and play on that piano.
693
00:46:15.333 --> 00:46:18.333
All right. Time go along.
Time go along.
694
00:46:19.041 --> 00:46:21.165
Miss Ophelia got to missing my grandmother
695
00:46:21.166 --> 00:46:24.707
and how she would cook,
clean the house, talk to her and whatnot,
696
00:46:24.708 --> 00:46:27.874
and she missed having my daddy around
to fetch things for her.
697
00:46:27.875 --> 00:46:32.874
So she asked to see if maybe
she could trade back that piano
698
00:46:32.875 --> 00:46:34.624
and get her niggers back.
699
00:46:34.625 --> 00:46:38.165
Mr. Nolander said, "No!"
Said a deal was a deal.
700
00:46:38.166 --> 00:46:41.665
And him and Sutter
had a big falling out about it.
701
00:46:41.666 --> 00:46:45.249
And Miss Ophelia took sick to the bed.
She wouldn't get up in the morning.
702
00:46:45.250 --> 00:46:48.333
That's when Sutter
called our granddaddy up to the house.
703
00:46:48.833 --> 00:46:51.082
Now, our granddaddy's name
was Boy Willie.
704
00:46:51.083 --> 00:46:53.582
Same like Boy Willie.
That's who he was named after.
705
00:46:53.583 --> 00:46:57.290
Only they called him Willie Boy.
706
00:46:57.291 --> 00:46:59.665
Now, he was a worker of wood.
707
00:47:02.958 --> 00:47:05.958
He could make you
anything you wanted out of wood.
708
00:47:07.583 --> 00:47:08.874
Them white fellas around there
709
00:47:08.875 --> 00:47:10.999
used to get him
to make all kinds of things for them,
710
00:47:11.000 --> 00:47:13.500
and they'd pay Mr. Sutter a nice price.
711
00:47:15.791 --> 00:47:19.832
'Cause everything my granddaddy made,
Mr. Sutter owned
712
00:47:19.833 --> 00:47:21.582
'cause he owned him.
713
00:47:21.583 --> 00:47:25.707
That's why when Mr. Nolander offered
to buy him to keep the family together,
714
00:47:25.708 --> 00:47:27.082
Sutter wouldn't sell him.
715
00:47:27.083 --> 00:47:30.541
Told Mr. Nolander
he ain't have enough money to buy him.
716
00:47:31.041 --> 00:47:32.624
Now, am I telling it right, Wining Boy?
717
00:47:32.625 --> 00:47:33.958
You telling it.
718
00:47:34.875 --> 00:47:36.832
Sutter called my granddaddy
up to the house
719
00:47:36.833 --> 00:47:40.749
and told him to carve a picture
of my grandmother and my daddy
720
00:47:40.750 --> 00:47:42.874
on the piano for Miss Ophelia,
721
00:47:42.875 --> 00:47:44.290
and he took and done this.
722
00:47:46.083 --> 00:47:47.291
You see that?
723
00:47:48.166 --> 00:47:50.750
That's my grandmother, Berniece.
724
00:47:51.750 --> 00:47:53.750
She looked just like that.
725
00:47:54.333 --> 00:47:57.249
And he put a picture of my daddy
when he wasn't nothing but a little boy,
726
00:47:57.250 --> 00:47:58.790
the way he remembered him.
727
00:47:58.791 --> 00:48:01.125
He carved 'em up out of his memory.
728
00:48:01.708 --> 00:48:04.583
Only thing is he ain't stop there.
729
00:48:05.125 --> 00:48:08.915
He took and carved all of this.
730
00:48:08.916 --> 00:48:12.165
He put a picture of his mama, Mama Esther,
731
00:48:12.166 --> 00:48:14.957
and his daddy, Boy Charles.
732
00:48:14.958 --> 00:48:18.707
And on the side here, that's when him
and Mama Berniece got married.
733
00:48:18.708 --> 00:48:21.083
They called that "jumping the broom."
734
00:48:22.250 --> 00:48:25.624
He put all kind of things on the side
what happened to our family.
735
00:48:25.625 --> 00:48:28.874
And when Sutter seen the piano
with all these carvings on it...
736
00:48:29.916 --> 00:48:31.540
...he got mad!
737
00:48:31.541 --> 00:48:33.457
He didn't ask for all this,
738
00:48:33.458 --> 00:48:36.124
but wasn't nothing he could do about it.
739
00:48:36.125 --> 00:48:39.707
But when Miss Ophelia seen it,
oh, well, she got excited.
740
00:48:39.708 --> 00:48:43.624
Now, she had her piano
and her niggers too.
741
00:48:43.625 --> 00:48:45.332
She took back to playing on it.
742
00:48:45.333 --> 00:48:48.915
Played on it right on up
to the day she died. All right.
743
00:48:48.916 --> 00:48:51.207
Now, our brother Boy Charles,
744
00:48:51.208 --> 00:48:54.958
that's Berniece and Boy Willie's daddy,
745
00:48:55.666 --> 00:48:57.666
he the oldest of us three boys.
746
00:48:58.333 --> 00:49:01.416
He'd have been 57 if he had lived.
747
00:49:01.958 --> 00:49:05.083
Died in 1911 when he was 31 years old.
748
00:49:06.500 --> 00:49:10.749
Boy Charles talked about that piano
all the time.
749
00:49:10.750 --> 00:49:12.790
Couldn't get it off his mind.
750
00:49:12.791 --> 00:49:16.666
Two, three months go by,
he'd be talking about it again.
751
00:49:17.416 --> 00:49:20.958
He'd be talking about
taking it out of Sutter's house.
752
00:49:21.541 --> 00:49:26.290
He said it was the story
of our whole family,
753
00:49:26.291 --> 00:49:28.374
and long as Sutter had it,
754
00:49:28.375 --> 00:49:29.665
he had us.
755
00:49:29.666 --> 00:49:31.583
Said we still in slavery.
756
00:49:32.583 --> 00:49:34.749
Me and Wining Boy tried
to talk him out of it,
757
00:49:34.750 --> 00:49:36.416
but it wouldn't do any good.
758
00:49:36.958 --> 00:49:39.916
Soon as he'd quiet down about it,
he'd start up again.
759
00:49:41.541 --> 00:49:43.832
We seen where he wasn't gonna
get his mind off it,
760
00:49:43.833 --> 00:49:46.624
so on 4th of July, 1911,
761
00:49:46.625 --> 00:49:49.832
while Sutter was at the picnic
what the county give every year...
762
00:49:53.791 --> 00:49:56.291
...me and Wining Boy
went on down there with him,
763
00:49:57.208 --> 00:50:01.125
and we took this piano
out of Sutter's house.
764
00:50:05.750 --> 00:50:08.583
Boy Willie couldn't have been
no more than six years old.
765
00:50:11.000 --> 00:50:12.624
His daddy had decided
766
00:50:12.625 --> 00:50:15.790
he was gonna stick around
till Sutter got back.
767
00:50:15.791 --> 00:50:18.250
Make it look like business as usual.
768
00:50:19.250 --> 00:50:22.833
I don't know what happened when Sutter
came home and found that piano gone,
769
00:50:24.041 --> 00:50:28.166
but somebody went up to Boy Charles' house
and set it on fire.
770
00:50:28.916 --> 00:50:30.957
He wasn't in there.
He must have seen 'em coming.
771
00:50:30.958 --> 00:50:36.000
'Cause he went down
and caught the 3:57 Yellow Dog.
772
00:50:37.083 --> 00:50:39.624
He ain't know they was gonna
come down there and stop the train.
773
00:50:40.916 --> 00:50:42.375
They stopped the train,
774
00:50:43.333 --> 00:50:48.083
found Boy Charles and three of them hobos
in one of them boxcars.
775
00:50:53.208 --> 00:50:55.582
Must've got mad
when they couldn't find that piano
776
00:50:55.583 --> 00:50:59.416
'cause they set the boxcar on fire.
777
00:51:00.291 --> 00:51:01.958
Killed everybody.
778
00:51:04.416 --> 00:51:06.083
Now, nobody know who done that.
779
00:51:07.166 --> 00:51:10.124
Some folks say it was Sutter
'cause it was his piano.
780
00:51:10.125 --> 00:51:12.207
Some folks say it was Sheriff Carter.
781
00:51:12.208 --> 00:51:15.082
Some people say
it was Ed Saunders or Robert Smith,
782
00:51:15.083 --> 00:51:18.540
but don't nobody know for sure.
783
00:51:22.208 --> 00:51:27.582
It was about two months after that
that Ed Saunders fell down his well.
784
00:51:27.583 --> 00:51:31.750
Just upped and fell down his well
for no reason.
785
00:51:32.750 --> 00:51:35.874
People say it was the ghosts
of them men what died in that boxcar
786
00:51:35.875 --> 00:51:37.540
pushed him in his well.
787
00:51:37.541 --> 00:51:41.457
And they started calling them
the Ghosts of the Yellow Dog.
788
00:51:41.458 --> 00:51:43.416
That's how all that got started.
789
00:51:44.208 --> 00:51:47.500
And that's why me and Wining Boy say
790
00:51:48.166 --> 00:51:52.416
Berniece ain't gonna sell that piano.
791
00:51:53.291 --> 00:51:55.833
'Cause her daddy died over it.
792
00:51:58.083 --> 00:51:59.583
All that's in the past.
793
00:52:03.208 --> 00:52:04.541
If my daddy
794
00:52:05.625 --> 00:52:10.916
had seen where he could have traded
that piano... in for some land of his own,
795
00:52:12.375 --> 00:52:14.125
it wouldn't be sitting up here now.
796
00:52:15.208 --> 00:52:18.041
He spent his whole life
farming somebody else's land.
797
00:52:20.250 --> 00:52:21.500
I ain't gonna do that.
798
00:52:23.416 --> 00:52:25.082
See, he couldn't do no better.
799
00:52:25.083 --> 00:52:27.374
When he come along,
he ain't had nothing to build on.
800
00:52:27.375 --> 00:52:29.458
His daddy ain't had nothing to give him.
801
00:52:30.500 --> 00:52:32.708
The only thing my daddy had to give me
802
00:52:33.833 --> 00:52:36.915
was that piano,
and he died giving me that.
803
00:52:36.916 --> 00:52:40.374
I ain't gonna let it sit there and rot
without trying to do something with it.
804
00:52:40.375 --> 00:52:44.415
And if Berniece can't see that,
I'm gonna go and sell my half.
805
00:52:44.416 --> 00:52:46.124
You and Wining Boy know I'm right.
806
00:52:46.125 --> 00:52:49.999
Ain't nobody said nothing
about who's right and who's wrong.
807
00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:51.958
I'm just telling the man about the piano.
808
00:52:52.875 --> 00:52:58.250
I'm telling him why me and Wining Boy say
Berniece ain't gonna sell it.
809
00:52:59.625 --> 00:53:01.250
Can see why you say that now.
810
00:53:02.458 --> 00:53:05.791
I told Boy Willie
he ought to stay up here with me.
811
00:53:07.333 --> 00:53:08.458
You stay.
812
00:53:09.375 --> 00:53:10.625
I'm going back.
813
00:53:13.083 --> 00:53:14.875
That's what I'm gonna do with my life.
814
00:53:15.958 --> 00:53:18.833
Why I got to learn to do something
I don't know how to do
815
00:53:19.333 --> 00:53:21.125
when I already know how to farm?
816
00:53:22.166 --> 00:53:23.166
You stay.
817
00:53:24.875 --> 00:53:27.375
Make your own way
if that's what you wanna do.
818
00:53:29.000 --> 00:53:31.708
I'm going back
to live my life the way I wanna live it.
819
00:53:36.916 --> 00:53:38.333
You know what this is?
820
00:53:39.166 --> 00:53:40.583
I don't know.
821
00:53:42.333 --> 00:53:43.707
What you think it is?
822
00:53:43.708 --> 00:53:44.791
Dirt.
823
00:53:45.916 --> 00:53:47.083
Nah, son.
824
00:53:48.000 --> 00:53:49.208
This ain't no dirt.
825
00:53:49.708 --> 00:53:51.166
This here is land.
826
00:53:53.500 --> 00:53:55.958
- You know the difference?
- No.
827
00:53:57.875 --> 00:53:58.916
See, dirt...
828
00:54:00.166 --> 00:54:03.041
dirt'll blow away, be gone with the wind.
829
00:54:04.083 --> 00:54:05.083
But land...
830
00:54:07.250 --> 00:54:08.916
...land'll last you forever, son.
831
00:54:15.500 --> 00:54:17.458
Go ahead. Feel it now. Crush it.
832
00:54:22.416 --> 00:54:23.416
You feel that?
833
00:54:24.541 --> 00:54:25.708
Feel good, don't it?
834
00:54:44.708 --> 00:54:47.832
One of the beings
walked towards me
835
00:54:47.833 --> 00:54:50.625
slowly but with intent.
836
00:54:51.250 --> 00:54:53.249
My comrades ran away in fear.
837
00:54:53.250 --> 00:54:55.583
Go on and get up them stairs.
838
00:54:56.958 --> 00:54:59.082
- ...in a tall tree.
- Is that--
839
00:54:59.083 --> 00:55:02.290
Lord! I... I know
that ain't Wining Boy sitting there.
840
00:55:02.291 --> 00:55:03.750
Hey, Berniece.
841
00:55:04.500 --> 00:55:06.374
You all had this planned.
842
00:55:06.375 --> 00:55:08.874
You and Boy Willie had this planned.
843
00:55:08.875 --> 00:55:11.457
I didn't know
he was gonna be here.
844
00:55:11.458 --> 00:55:14.665
I'm on my way down home and stopped by
to see you and Doaker first.
845
00:55:14.666 --> 00:55:16.874
Told that nigger,
he left here with that sack of money,
846
00:55:16.875 --> 00:55:19.040
we thought
he wasn't never gonna see him again.
847
00:55:19.041 --> 00:55:20.791
Give your uncle a hug.
848
00:55:21.375 --> 00:55:24.874
Boy Willie, I ain't see that truck.
Thought you was out selling watermelons.
849
00:55:24.875 --> 00:55:27.666
We done sold 'em all. Sold the truck too.
850
00:55:28.458 --> 00:55:31.415
I don't wanna go through your stuff.
I told you. Go back where you belong.
851
00:55:31.416 --> 00:55:34.540
Hell, I was just teasing you, woman.
You can't take no teasing?
852
00:55:34.541 --> 00:55:36.207
Wining Boy, when you get here?
853
00:55:36.208 --> 00:55:38.750
A little while ago.
I took the train from Kansas City.
854
00:55:39.250 --> 00:55:41.749
Let me go change my clothes,
then I'll cook you something to eat.
855
00:55:41.750 --> 00:55:43.999
Hey! I like the sound of that.
856
00:55:44.000 --> 00:55:47.000
Come on, Maretha. Change your clothes
before you get 'em dirty.
857
00:55:47.500 --> 00:55:48.999
Maretha sure getting big.
858
00:55:49.000 --> 00:55:50.124
- Ain't she, Doaker?
- Mm-hmm.
859
00:55:50.125 --> 00:55:53.999
And just as pretty as she wanna be.
I didn't know Crawley had it in him.
860
00:55:55.375 --> 00:56:00.082
Hey, Lymon, get up on the other side
of this piano. Let me see something.
861
00:56:00.083 --> 00:56:03.582
- Boy Willie, what is you doing?
- I wanna see how heavy this piano is.
862
00:56:05.125 --> 00:56:06.374
Get up over there, Lymon.
863
00:56:06.375 --> 00:56:09.999
Go on and leave that piano alone.
You ain't taking it and selling it.
864
00:56:10.000 --> 00:56:12.124
Just as soon as I get them watermelons
off that truck.
865
00:56:12.125 --> 00:56:13.999
I got something to say about that.
866
00:56:14.000 --> 00:56:15.332
This my daddy's piano.
867
00:56:15.333 --> 00:56:17.958
He ain't took it by himself.
Me and Doaker helped him.
868
00:56:19.166 --> 00:56:20.458
He died by himself.
869
00:56:21.458 --> 00:56:23.208
Where was you and Doaker at then?
870
00:56:24.291 --> 00:56:26.082
Don't come telling me nothing
about this piano.
871
00:56:26.083 --> 00:56:28.874
This me and Berniece's piano.
Am I right, Doaker?
872
00:56:28.875 --> 00:56:31.207
Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you right.
873
00:56:31.208 --> 00:56:33.082
Come on, Lymon.
Let's see if we can lift it up.
874
00:56:33.083 --> 00:56:36.208
Get you a real good grip
and lift it up on your end. Come on.
875
00:56:44.666 --> 00:56:46.082
- Ready?
- Ready.
876
00:56:50.000 --> 00:56:51.124
Lift.
877
00:57:11.208 --> 00:57:12.332
What you think?
878
00:57:12.333 --> 00:57:16.375
It's heavy, but you can move it.
Only it ain't gonna be easy.
879
00:57:17.791 --> 00:57:19.333
Wasn't that heavy to me.
880
00:57:20.541 --> 00:57:22.625
Okay. Let's put it back.
881
00:57:43.291 --> 00:57:44.416
Boy Willie,
882
00:57:45.333 --> 00:57:47.874
you gonna play around with me
one too many times,
883
00:57:47.875 --> 00:57:50.207
and then God gonna bless you,
and West gonna dress you.
884
00:57:50.208 --> 00:57:52.041
Now set that piano back over there.
885
00:57:53.875 --> 00:57:55.833
- I'm trying to get me some land, woman.
- Mm-hmm.
886
00:57:56.416 --> 00:57:58.665
Wining Boy, you want me
to fry you up some pork chops?
887
00:57:58.666 --> 00:58:00.207
It sound good to me.
888
00:58:00.208 --> 00:58:02.833
See, now, I'm gonna tell you
the way I see it.
889
00:58:04.666 --> 00:58:06.999
Papa Boy Charles brought that piano
into the house.
890
00:58:07.000 --> 00:58:09.875
Now I'm supposed to build on
what they left me.
891
00:58:10.416 --> 00:58:13.165
Can't do nothing with that piano,
letting it sit up there in the house.
892
00:58:13.166 --> 00:58:16.790
That'd be like if I let them watermelons
sit out there and rot. I'd be a fool.
893
00:58:16.791 --> 00:58:21.291
Okay, now, if you say to me,
"Boy Willie, I'm using that piano."
894
00:58:21.875 --> 00:58:24.624
"I give out lessons on it.
That help me pay my rent."
895
00:58:24.625 --> 00:58:26.832
Or whatever,
then that'd be something else.
896
00:58:26.833 --> 00:58:29.499
I'd have to say,
"Well, Berniece using that piano."
897
00:58:29.500 --> 00:58:31.707
"She building on it.
Let her go on and use it."
898
00:58:31.708 --> 00:58:33.791
"I got to find another way
to get Sutter's land."
899
00:58:35.083 --> 00:58:38.665
But Doaker say you ain't touched
that piano the whole time it's been here.
900
00:58:38.666 --> 00:58:40.833
So why you wanna try and stand in my way?
901
00:58:41.958 --> 00:58:44.291
See, you just looking
at the sentimental value.
902
00:58:45.000 --> 00:58:46.250
See, that's good.
903
00:58:47.500 --> 00:58:50.957
That's all right. I take my hat off
whenever somebody say my daddy's name.
904
00:58:50.958 --> 00:58:54.040
But I ain't gonna be no fool
about no sentimental value.
905
00:58:54.041 --> 00:58:56.332
You can sit up there
and look at that piano for 100 years.
906
00:58:56.333 --> 00:58:59.500
It's just gonna be a piano.
You can't make more than that.
907
00:59:03.666 --> 00:59:05.916
Now, I wanna get Sutter's land
with the piano.
908
00:59:06.541 --> 00:59:11.083
I get Sutter's land, go down there
and cash the crop and get my seed.
909
00:59:11.666 --> 00:59:14.874
See, as long as I got the land
and the seed, I'm all right.
910
00:59:14.875 --> 00:59:17.333
I can always get me
a little something else.
911
00:59:18.125 --> 00:59:20.707
The kind of man my daddy was,
he would've understood that.
912
00:59:20.708 --> 00:59:22.874
Now, I'm sorry
you can't see it that way, Berniece,
913
00:59:22.875 --> 00:59:26.666
but that's why I'm taking that piano
out of here and selling it.
914
00:59:27.166 --> 00:59:28.500
Look at this piano.
915
00:59:30.166 --> 00:59:31.125
Look at it.
916
00:59:33.708 --> 00:59:37.249
Mama Ola polished this piano
with her tears
917
00:59:37.250 --> 00:59:39.041
for 17 years.
918
00:59:39.791 --> 00:59:43.833
For 17 years,
she rubbed on it till her hands bled.
919
00:59:44.625 --> 00:59:48.583
Then she rubbed the blood in,
mixed it with the rest of the blood on it.
920
00:59:50.000 --> 00:59:52.749
Every day,
God breathed life into her body.
921
00:59:52.750 --> 00:59:57.416
She rubbed and cleaned
and polished and prayed over it.
922
00:59:59.000 --> 01:00:00.791
"Play something for me, Berniece."
923
01:00:01.791 --> 01:00:03.500
"Play something for me, Berniece."
924
01:00:04.125 --> 01:00:06.458
"Play something for me, Berniece."
Every day.
925
01:00:07.000 --> 01:00:10.375
"I cleaned it up for you.
Play something for me, Berniece."
926
01:00:12.208 --> 01:00:14.375
You always talking about your daddy.
927
01:00:14.875 --> 01:00:18.082
But you don't never stop to look at
what his foolishness cost your mama.
928
01:00:18.083 --> 01:00:22.625
Seventeen years' worth
of cold nights in an empty bed. For what?
929
01:00:24.083 --> 01:00:25.291
For a piano?
930
01:00:25.916 --> 01:00:27.375
For a piece of wood?
931
01:00:28.375 --> 01:00:30.208
To get even with somebody?
932
01:00:33.458 --> 01:00:34.500
I look at you,
933
01:00:35.833 --> 01:00:37.458
and you're all the same.
934
01:00:38.000 --> 01:00:42.040
You, Papa Boy Charles,
Wining Boy, Doaker, Crawley.
935
01:00:42.041 --> 01:00:43.249
Y'all alike.
936
01:00:43.250 --> 01:00:45.832
All this thieving and killing.
Thieving and killing.
937
01:00:45.833 --> 01:00:47.082
What it ever lead to?
938
01:00:47.083 --> 01:00:50.332
More killing and more thieving.
I ain't never seen it come to nothing.
939
01:00:50.333 --> 01:00:52.499
People getting burnt up.
People getting shot.
940
01:00:52.500 --> 01:00:55.915
People falling down their wells.
It don't never stop!
941
01:00:55.916 --> 01:00:58.750
Come on, now, Berniece.
Ain't no sense in getting upset.
942
01:01:00.500 --> 01:01:03.041
I done a little bit of stealing
here and there,
943
01:01:03.791 --> 01:01:05.708
but I ain't never killed nobody.
944
01:01:06.666 --> 01:01:09.915
I can't be speaking for nobody else.
You... you all got to speak for yourself.
945
01:01:09.916 --> 01:01:11.583
But I ain't never killed nobody.
946
01:01:13.250 --> 01:01:16.540
You killed Crawley
just as sure as if you pulled the trigger.
947
01:01:16.541 --> 01:01:18.208
See, that's just ignorant.
948
01:01:18.791 --> 01:01:21.082
That's downright foolish
for you to say something like that.
949
01:01:21.083 --> 01:01:23.124
You ain't doing nothing
but showing your ignorance.
950
01:01:23.125 --> 01:01:27.082
If the nigger was here, I'd whoop his ass
for getting me and Lymon shot at.
951
01:01:27.083 --> 01:01:30.332
- Crawley ain't knew about that wood.
- We told the man about the wood!
952
01:01:30.333 --> 01:01:32.665
Ask Lymon. He knew all about the wood.
953
01:01:32.666 --> 01:01:36.165
He seen we was sneaking it.
Why else we gonna go out there at night?
954
01:01:36.166 --> 01:01:38.249
Don't tell me
Crawley ain't knew about the wood.
955
01:01:38.250 --> 01:01:41.583
Them fellas try to run us off it,
and Crawley tried to bully them.
956
01:01:42.208 --> 01:01:43.749
Me and Lymon seen the sheriff with them.
957
01:01:43.750 --> 01:01:46.249
We give in.
No sense getting killed over $50.
958
01:01:46.250 --> 01:01:49.332
- Crawley ain't knew. You stole that wood!
- We ain't stole no wood.
959
01:01:49.333 --> 01:01:52.915
We was hauling wood for Jim Miller
and keeping us a little bit on the side.
960
01:01:52.916 --> 01:01:56.833
We dumped our little bit down by the creek
till we had enough to make a load.
961
01:01:57.708 --> 01:02:00.874
Them fellas seen us. We figured
we better get it before they did.
962
01:02:00.875 --> 01:02:04.082
We got Crawley to help us load it.
We figured we'd cut him in.
963
01:02:04.083 --> 01:02:06.958
Crawley trying to keep the wolf
from his door. We was helping.
964
01:02:07.458 --> 01:02:09.750
Me and Boy Willie
told him about the wood.
965
01:02:11.791 --> 01:02:14.165
We told him some fellas
might be trying to beat us to it.
966
01:02:14.166 --> 01:02:18.083
He said, "Whoa.
Let me go back, get my .38."
967
01:02:19.166 --> 01:02:20.625
That's what caused the trouble.
968
01:02:23.458 --> 01:02:26.166
If Crawley ain't had that gun,
he'd still be alive today.
969
01:02:28.958 --> 01:02:31.916
We had it about half loaded
when they come up on us.
970
01:02:32.916 --> 01:02:35.249
We seen the sheriff with 'em.
We... we tried to get away.
971
01:02:35.250 --> 01:02:37.999
We ducked round
near that bend in the creek,
972
01:02:38.000 --> 01:02:39.707
but they was down there too.
973
01:02:39.708 --> 01:02:41.541
Boy Willie say, "Let's give in,"
974
01:02:42.125 --> 01:02:44.541
but Crawley pulled out his gun,
started shooting.
975
01:02:45.250 --> 01:02:46.749
That's when they started shooting back.
976
01:02:53.250 --> 01:02:54.375
Berniece.
977
01:02:57.000 --> 01:03:02.333
All I know is Crawley would still be alive
if you hadn't come up there and got him.
978
01:03:03.458 --> 01:03:05.750
I had nothing to do
with Crawley getting killed.
979
01:03:06.375 --> 01:03:07.540
That was his own fault.
980
01:03:07.541 --> 01:03:10.374
Crawley is dead and in the ground,
981
01:03:10.375 --> 01:03:12.915
and you still walking around here eating.
982
01:03:12.916 --> 01:03:14.333
That's all I know.
983
01:03:15.583 --> 01:03:18.999
He went off to load some wood with you
and ain't never come back.
984
01:03:19.000 --> 01:03:22.082
I told you, woman, I had nothing to do
with Crawley getting killed!
985
01:03:22.083 --> 01:03:23.375
He ain't here, is he?
986
01:03:24.750 --> 01:03:25.915
He ain't here, hmm?
987
01:03:25.916 --> 01:03:28.540
- I told you I ain't responsible--
- I said he ain't here!
988
01:03:28.541 --> 01:03:31.374
- I don't-- Doaker, get her outta here.
- He ain't here, is he? Is he?
989
01:03:31.375 --> 01:03:33.249
- He ain't here!
- I done told you...
990
01:04:23.666 --> 01:04:26.125
Easy. It's okay. It's okay.
991
01:04:43.666 --> 01:04:46.166
Maretha scared
to sleep upstairs now.
992
01:04:47.125 --> 01:04:50.750
Berniece don't know,
but I seen Sutter 'fore she did.
993
01:04:51.333 --> 01:04:52.958
- Say what?
- Mm-hmm.
994
01:04:53.583 --> 01:04:54.915
About three weeks ago.
995
01:04:54.916 --> 01:04:57.415
I had just come back from down there.
996
01:04:57.416 --> 01:05:00.207
Sutter couldn't have been dead
more than three days.
997
01:05:00.208 --> 01:05:01.957
He was sitting over there at the piano.
998
01:05:01.958 --> 01:05:05.541
I come out to go to work.
He's sitting right there.
999
01:05:06.250 --> 01:05:09.249
He say anything?
He say he was looking for Boy Willie?
1000
01:05:09.250 --> 01:05:12.333
I ain't heard him say nothing.
He just sitting there.
1001
01:05:12.916 --> 01:05:15.750
I don't believe
Boy Willie pushed him in the well though.
1002
01:05:16.250 --> 01:05:18.291
Sutter here 'cause of that piano.
1003
01:05:18.791 --> 01:05:22.207
Berniece need to go on and sell it.
Ain't done nothing but cause trouble.
1004
01:05:22.208 --> 01:05:26.915
I don't-- I agree with Berniece.
Boy Charles ain't took it to give it back.
1005
01:05:26.916 --> 01:05:30.165
He took it because he figured
he had more right to it than Sutter did.
1006
01:05:30.166 --> 01:05:33.125
If Sutter can't understand that,
that's just the way that go.
1007
01:05:33.625 --> 01:05:36.791
Sutter dead and in the ground.
Don't care where his ghost is.
1008
01:05:37.291 --> 01:05:39.958
He can hover around
and play on the piano all he want.
1009
01:05:40.500 --> 01:05:43.874
I wanna see him carry it out the house.
That's what I wanna see.
1010
01:05:46.166 --> 01:05:49.500
Two for a dollar.
Come on. Who wants some watermelon?
1011
01:05:50.250 --> 01:05:51.249
I'll take five.
1012
01:05:52.166 --> 01:05:55.958
- Two big watermelon coming to you.
- It's a boy. Congratulations.
1013
01:05:58.250 --> 01:06:01.790
- You picking the right ones, ain't you?
- We got two more coming. One second.
1014
01:06:01.791 --> 01:06:04.000
Watch out. That's heavy now. Be careful.
1015
01:06:04.583 --> 01:06:06.540
- There you go. Thank you.
- All right.
1016
01:06:06.541 --> 01:06:09.458
See, this is what we call salt.
Put that on that right there.
1017
01:06:10.875 --> 01:06:13.207
- Take a bite. What you think?
- Mmm!
1018
01:06:13.208 --> 01:06:16.958
One, two, three lovely ladies.
1019
01:06:21.125 --> 01:06:24.541
Yo, one lady asked me, "Is they sweet?"
1020
01:06:25.041 --> 01:06:27.374
I told her, "Lady,
where we grow these watermelons,
1021
01:06:27.375 --> 01:06:29.082
we put the sugar in the ground."
1022
01:06:29.083 --> 01:06:31.499
You know she believed me.
1023
01:06:31.500 --> 01:06:34.458
Talking about,
"I've never heard that before."
1024
01:06:35.208 --> 01:06:36.333
Look here, Lymon.
1025
01:06:37.208 --> 01:06:40.040
See this? Look at his eyes getting big.
1026
01:06:40.041 --> 01:06:42.582
He ain't never seen a suit like this.
1027
01:06:42.583 --> 01:06:45.790
This is 100% silk.
1028
01:06:45.791 --> 01:06:48.291
Go ahead. Put it on. See if it fit.
1029
01:06:56.875 --> 01:06:57.916
Ha ha!
1030
01:06:58.458 --> 01:07:01.332
Look at that. Feel it.
1031
01:07:01.333 --> 01:07:03.874
This is nice.
1032
01:07:03.875 --> 01:07:06.207
Feel real nice and smooth.
1033
01:07:06.208 --> 01:07:09.000
That's a $55 suit.
1034
01:07:09.500 --> 01:07:11.582
That's the kind of suit
the big shots wear.
1035
01:07:11.583 --> 01:07:15.000
You need a pistol and a pocketful of money
to wear that suit.
1036
01:07:15.916 --> 01:07:17.957
I'll let you have it for three dollars.
1037
01:07:17.958 --> 01:07:22.333
The women will fall out of their windows
they see you in a suit like that.
1038
01:07:22.916 --> 01:07:25.165
Give me three dollars,
and wear it down the street
1039
01:07:25.166 --> 01:07:26.666
and get you a woman.
1040
01:07:27.375 --> 01:07:29.708
Put the pants on.
Let me see it with the pants.
1041
01:07:32.583 --> 01:07:35.040
Look at that. See how it fit you?
1042
01:07:35.041 --> 01:07:37.165
Give me three dollars,
and go on and take it.
1043
01:07:37.166 --> 01:07:40.957
- Look at that, Doaker. Don't he look nice?
- Mm-hmm. That's a nice suit.
1044
01:07:40.958 --> 01:07:43.207
Got a shirt to go with it.
Cost you a dollar.
1045
01:07:43.208 --> 01:07:45.207
Four dollars, and you got the whole deal.
1046
01:07:45.208 --> 01:07:46.915
How this look, Boy Willie?
1047
01:07:46.916 --> 01:07:49.290
That look nice.
If you like that kind of thing.
1048
01:07:49.291 --> 01:07:52.333
That's the kind of suit you need
for up here in the North.
1049
01:07:52.833 --> 01:07:56.374
Four dollars for everything?
The suit and the shirt?
1050
01:07:56.375 --> 01:07:57.499
That's cheap.
1051
01:07:57.500 --> 01:08:00.666
- I should be charging you $20.
- Okay.
1052
01:08:09.333 --> 01:08:10.958
Oh.
1053
01:08:12.125 --> 01:08:13.958
- Here go the four dollars.
- Mm.
1054
01:08:15.125 --> 01:08:17.500
You got some shoes? What size you wear?
1055
01:08:18.041 --> 01:08:19.000
Size nine.
1056
01:08:19.500 --> 01:08:22.832
That's what size I got. Size nine.
I'll let you have 'em for three dollars.
1057
01:08:22.833 --> 01:08:26.082
- Where they at? Let me see 'em.
- Whoo! They some real nice shoes too.
1058
01:08:26.083 --> 01:08:30.207
They got a nice tip to 'em.
Got pointy toe just like you want.
1059
01:08:32.208 --> 01:08:36.708
Come on, Boy Willie. Let's go out tonight.
I wanna see what it look like up here.
1060
01:08:37.833 --> 01:08:39.666
Maybe we go to the picture show.
1061
01:08:40.166 --> 01:08:42.457
Hey, Doaker.
They got picture shows up here?
1062
01:08:42.458 --> 01:08:45.249
Yeah, the Rhumba Theater.
Down there on Fullerton Street.
1063
01:08:45.250 --> 01:08:48.665
Got a speaker on the sidewalk.
Can't miss it. Boy Willie know where.
1064
01:08:48.666 --> 01:08:51.624
Let's go to the picture show, Boy Willie.
Let's find some women.
1065
01:08:51.625 --> 01:08:54.082
Whoo! Size nine.
1066
01:08:54.083 --> 01:08:55.375
Cost you three dollars.
1067
01:08:56.458 --> 01:09:00.124
That's a Florsheim shoe.
That's the kind Stagger Lee wore.
1068
01:09:00.125 --> 01:09:01.250
Mm.
1069
01:09:02.750 --> 01:09:04.415
You sure these size nine?
1070
01:09:04.416 --> 01:09:07.874
You can look at my feet
and see we wear the same size.
1071
01:09:07.875 --> 01:09:10.040
Man, when you put on that suit
and them shoes,
1072
01:09:10.041 --> 01:09:11.707
you'll be the king of the walk.
1073
01:09:11.708 --> 01:09:13.125
I'll give you a break.
1074
01:09:13.666 --> 01:09:16.750
Go on and take 'em for... two dollars.
1075
01:09:23.625 --> 01:09:26.375
Come on, Boy Willie.
Let's go find some women.
1076
01:09:26.916 --> 01:09:31.291
I'm gonna go upstairs and go get ready.
I'll be ready to go in a minute.
1077
01:09:35.708 --> 01:09:37.832
That's all Lymon think about is women.
1078
01:09:37.833 --> 01:09:41.458
His daddy was the same way.
I used to run around with him.
1079
01:09:42.041 --> 01:09:43.541
And I know his mama too.
1080
01:09:44.041 --> 01:09:46.415
Two strokes back,
and I would've been his daddy.
1081
01:09:47.708 --> 01:09:50.000
My name is Lucille.
1082
01:09:50.666 --> 01:09:51.875
Put that away, nigger.
1083
01:09:52.833 --> 01:09:56.333
And I'm travelin'
a very, very, very, very, very short way.
1084
01:10:02.875 --> 01:10:04.375

No, come on.
1095
01:10:35.916 --> 01:10:38.208
Boxcar George in the house.
1096
01:10:39.250 --> 01:10:40.083
Hey!
1097
01:10:44.458 --> 01:10:46.041
Come on, Vinnie, on this piano.
1098
01:10:50.916 --> 01:10:52.082
Hey!
1099
01:10:52.083 --> 01:10:53.333
Oh yeah, you know.
1100
01:11:04.625 --> 01:11:06.624
We going downtown. Hey!
1101
01:11:06.625 --> 01:11:09.457
Why, hello, hello, beautiful.
Come on, let's dance.
1102
01:11:09.458 --> 01:11:11.125
Come on.
1103
01:11:12.625 --> 01:11:13.750
Yeah.
1104
01:11:14.250 --> 01:11:15.750
Hey, now!
1105
01:11:17.375 --> 01:11:18.958
Come on. Let's pray.
1106
01:11:23.083 --> 01:11:25.707
Now I lay me down to sleep
1107
01:11:25.708 --> 01:11:28.540
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
1108
01:11:28.541 --> 01:11:31.290
If I should die before I wake
1109
01:11:31.291 --> 01:11:33.666
I pray the Lord my soul to take
1110
01:11:34.166 --> 01:11:36.207
- God bless Doaker.
- God bless Doaker.
1111
01:11:36.208 --> 01:11:38.415
- God bless Avery.
- God bless Avery.
1112
01:11:38.416 --> 01:11:41.207
- God bless Wining Boy.
- God bless Wining Boy.
1113
01:11:41.208 --> 01:11:43.749
- God bless Boy Willie.
- God bless Boy Willie.
1114
01:11:47.250 --> 01:11:48.291
Come on.
1115
01:14:01.583 --> 01:14:04.208
- Who is it?
- It's... it's me, Avery.
1116
01:14:14.583 --> 01:14:16.291
- Avery.
- Hey.
1117
01:14:17.458 --> 01:14:18.458
Come on in.
1118
01:14:19.916 --> 01:14:23.041
I was just... finishing my bath.
1119
01:14:29.416 --> 01:14:30.541
Where Boy Willie?
1120
01:14:31.958 --> 01:14:36.416
That truck almost empty. They done sold
almost all... all them watermelons, huh?
1121
01:14:36.916 --> 01:14:40.125
I don't know where they went off to.
They was gone when I come home.
1122
01:14:42.958 --> 01:14:46.082
Oh, what Mr. Cohen say
about letting you have the place?
1123
01:14:46.083 --> 01:14:49.416
Well, he say he'll let me have it
for $30 a month.
1124
01:14:49.916 --> 01:14:51.916
I talked him out of 35.
1125
01:14:52.958 --> 01:14:54.957
It's a nice spot,
next to Benny's diamond store.
1126
01:14:54.958 --> 01:14:56.208
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
1127
01:15:02.500 --> 01:15:03.666
Berniece, uh...
1128
01:15:06.458 --> 01:15:07.375
Just...
1129
01:15:08.166 --> 01:15:09.666
Come on. You know, I...
1130
01:15:10.416 --> 01:15:14.083
I be at home, and I... I get to thinking.
1131
01:15:15.791 --> 01:15:18.624
You up here, and I'm down there,
1132
01:15:18.625 --> 01:15:22.041
and I get to thinking how that look
to have a preacher that ain't married.
1133
01:15:24.375 --> 01:15:26.374
I mean, it'd make
for a better congregation
1134
01:15:26.375 --> 01:15:28.957
if the... if the preacher
was settled down and married.
1135
01:15:28.958 --> 01:15:30.375
- Avery.
- Hmm?
1136
01:15:31.666 --> 01:15:32.541
Not now.
1137
01:15:35.000 --> 01:15:38.000
Come on, Berniece.
You... you know how I feel about you.
1138
01:15:38.875 --> 01:15:41.665
- Now, I done got the place from Mr. Cohen.
- Mm.
1139
01:15:41.666 --> 01:15:44.582
I get the money from the bank,
I... I can fix it up real nice.
1140
01:15:44.583 --> 01:15:47.666
They give me a ten-cents-an-hour raise
down there on the job.
1141
01:15:48.208 --> 01:15:52.208
And you know me. I ain't got...
I ain't got much in the way of comforts.
1142
01:15:53.833 --> 01:15:57.166
I got a hole in my pocket near about
as far as money is concerned.
1143
01:15:58.291 --> 01:15:59.458
But I ain't never
1144
01:16:00.791 --> 01:16:01.915
found my way through life
1145
01:16:01.916 --> 01:16:04.957
to a woman I cares about
like I cares about you, Berniece.
1146
01:16:04.958 --> 01:16:06.415
I need that.
1147
01:16:06.416 --> 01:16:07.458
Avery,
1148
01:16:08.541 --> 01:16:10.250
I ain't ready to get married now.
1149
01:16:12.458 --> 01:16:14.457
You too young a woman
to close up, Berniece.
1150
01:16:14.458 --> 01:16:17.749
I ain't said nothing about closing up.
I got a lot of woman left in me.
1151
01:16:17.750 --> 01:16:21.750
Well, where's it at?
When's the last time you looked at it?
1152
01:16:24.541 --> 01:16:26.958
That's a nasty thing to say.
1153
01:16:28.208 --> 01:16:29.874
And you call yourself a preacher.
1154
01:16:29.875 --> 01:16:32.874
Anytime I get anywhere near you,
it's like you push me away.
1155
01:16:32.875 --> 01:16:35.082
I got enough on my hands with Maretha.
1156
01:16:35.083 --> 01:16:37.874
I got enough people
to love and take care of.
1157
01:16:37.875 --> 01:16:39.625
Okay, well, who you got to love you?
1158
01:16:42.291 --> 01:16:44.540
Can't nobody get close enough to ya.
1159
01:16:44.541 --> 01:16:47.624
Doaker can't half say nothing to you.
You jump all over Boy Willie.
1160
01:16:47.625 --> 01:16:49.416
Who you got to love you, Berniece?
1161
01:16:50.958 --> 01:16:53.749
You trying to tell me
a woman can't be nothing without a man?
1162
01:16:53.750 --> 01:16:56.458
- Okay.
- But you all right, hmm?
1163
01:16:57.166 --> 01:17:00.790
You can just walk out of here without me,
without a woman, and still be a man.
1164
01:17:00.791 --> 01:17:01.875
That's all right.
1165
01:17:02.375 --> 01:17:05.915
Ain't nobody gonna ask you,
"Avery, who you got to love you?"
1166
01:17:05.916 --> 01:17:07.333
That's all right for you.
1167
01:17:07.958 --> 01:17:10.624
But everybody gonna be worried
about Berniece.
1168
01:17:10.625 --> 01:17:14.290
"How Berniece gonna take care of herself?
How she raise that child without a man?"
1169
01:17:14.291 --> 01:17:16.832
"Wonder what she do with herself.
How she gonna live like that?"
1170
01:17:16.833 --> 01:17:18.832
Everybody got all kinds of questions
for Berniece.
1171
01:17:18.833 --> 01:17:21.082
Telling me I can't be a woman
unless I got a man.
1172
01:17:21.083 --> 01:17:25.124
Well, you tell me, Avery. You know.
How much woman am I?
1173
01:17:25.125 --> 01:17:29.082
It wasn't me, Berniece.
You can't blame me for nobody else.
1174
01:17:29.083 --> 01:17:31.083
I ain't blaming nobody for nothing.
1175
01:17:33.166 --> 01:17:36.041
I'm just... stating facts.
1176
01:17:38.750 --> 01:17:41.375
How long you gonna carry
Crawley with you, Berniece?
1177
01:17:42.750 --> 01:17:44.750
It's been over, what, three years?
1178
01:17:45.875 --> 01:17:49.374
At some point,
you gonna have to let go and go on.
1179
01:17:49.375 --> 01:17:52.124
Life got twists and turns.
That don't mean you stop living.
1180
01:17:52.125 --> 01:17:54.457
Crawley been dead three years, Berniece.
Three years!
1181
01:17:54.458 --> 01:17:56.874
I know how long Crawley been dead.
You ain't got to tell me.
1182
01:17:56.875 --> 01:17:58.999
I... I just ain't ready
to get married right now.
1183
01:17:59.000 --> 01:18:01.000
Well, what is you ready for, Berniece?
1184
01:18:01.833 --> 01:18:04.415
You... you just gonna drift along
from day to day?
1185
01:18:04.416 --> 01:18:07.082
Life's more than about just making it
from one day to another.
1186
01:18:07.083 --> 01:18:10.041
You gonna look up one day,
and it's all gonna be past you.
1187
01:18:10.666 --> 01:18:12.583
I'm standing here right now.
1188
01:18:14.708 --> 01:18:17.333
But I don't know how much longer
I'm gonna be waiting on you.
1189
01:18:18.166 --> 01:18:19.833
Avery, I told you.
1190
01:18:20.458 --> 01:18:22.916
When you get your church,
we can sit down and talk about this.
1191
01:18:23.666 --> 01:18:25.874
I got too many other things
to deal with right now.
1192
01:18:25.875 --> 01:18:27.082
Yeah.
1193
01:18:27.083 --> 01:18:28.750
Boy Willie and the piano
1194
01:18:29.625 --> 01:18:30.916
and Sutter's ghost.
1195
01:18:32.166 --> 01:18:34.416
I thought I might've
just been seeing things, but...
1196
01:18:36.125 --> 01:18:37.832
Maretha done seen Sutter's ghost too.
1197
01:18:37.833 --> 01:18:39.040
When this happen, Berniece?
1198
01:18:39.041 --> 01:18:40.875
Right after I came home yesterday.
1199
01:18:42.625 --> 01:18:44.500
Maretha scared to sleep up there now.
1200
01:18:49.291 --> 01:18:53.750
Maybe... if you bless the house,
he'll go away.
1201
01:18:56.083 --> 01:18:58.083
Oh, I... I don't know, Berniece.
1202
01:18:59.583 --> 01:19:02.665
I don't know if I should be fooling around
with something like that now.
1203
01:19:02.666 --> 01:19:05.166
I can't have Maretha
scared to sleep up there.
1204
01:19:06.916 --> 01:19:09.290
Seem like you bless the house,
he would go away.
1205
01:19:09.291 --> 01:19:11.457
You might gotta be
a special kind of preacher
1206
01:19:11.458 --> 01:19:13.083
to do something like that.
1207
01:19:20.625 --> 01:19:22.125
I keep telling myself
1208
01:19:23.291 --> 01:19:26.041
when Boy Willie leave,
he'll go on and leave with him.
1209
01:19:30.000 --> 01:19:32.499
I believe Boy Willie
pushed him in the well.
1210
01:19:32.500 --> 01:19:35.375
No, that's been going on down there
for a long time.
1211
01:19:36.166 --> 01:19:38.374
Ghosts of the Yellow Dog
been pushing people in they wells
1212
01:19:38.375 --> 01:19:40.165
long before Boy Willie got grown.
1213
01:19:40.166 --> 01:19:42.832
Somebody down there
pushing them people in they wells.
1214
01:19:42.833 --> 01:19:44.458
They ain't just upped and fell.
1215
01:19:47.125 --> 01:19:49.500
What Doaker say
about Boy Willie selling that piano?
1216
01:19:50.083 --> 01:19:53.666
Doaker don't want no part of that piano.
He ain't never wanted no part of it.
1217
01:19:55.458 --> 01:19:58.082
He washed his hands of that piano
a long time ago.
1218
01:19:59.791 --> 01:20:01.540
He ain't want me to bring it up here,
1219
01:20:01.541 --> 01:20:04.666
but... I wasn't gonna leave it down there.
1220
01:20:06.500 --> 01:20:08.624
When my mama died,
I shut the top on that piano,
1221
01:20:08.625 --> 01:20:10.541
and I ain't never opened it since.
1222
01:20:11.833 --> 01:20:13.374
I was only playing it for her.
1223
01:20:16.708 --> 01:20:21.332
When my daddy died, seem like
all her life went into that piano.
1224
01:20:26.250 --> 01:20:28.125
She used to
have me playing on it.
1225
01:20:31.708 --> 01:20:35.582
Say when I played it,
she could hear my daddy talking to her.
1226
01:20:35.583 --> 01:20:40.415
Berniece,
I cleaned it up for you. Play something.
1227
01:20:40.416 --> 01:20:44.665
I used to think them pictures
come alive and walk through the house.
1228
01:20:44.666 --> 01:20:45.791
It's time.
1229
01:20:46.875 --> 01:20:48.583
Sometimes, late at night,
1230
01:20:49.666 --> 01:20:51.500
I could hear my mama talking to 'em.
1231
01:20:55.625 --> 01:20:57.541
I said that wasn't gonna happen to me.
1232
01:20:58.666 --> 01:21:01.916
I don't play on that piano
'cause I don't wanna wake them spirits.
1233
01:21:03.208 --> 01:21:06.250
They never... never be walking around
in this house.
1234
01:21:07.000 --> 01:21:10.083
You got to put all of that
behind you, Berniece.
1235
01:21:12.000 --> 01:21:13.916
It's the same thing like Crawley.
1236
01:21:14.666 --> 01:21:17.125
Everybody got stones in their passway.
1237
01:21:19.583 --> 01:21:21.375
You could walk in there right now...
1238
01:21:23.083 --> 01:21:24.416
right now and play that piano.
1239
01:21:26.500 --> 01:21:28.457
You could walk over there right now,
1240
01:21:28.458 --> 01:21:31.583
and God is gonna walk over there
with you, Berniece.
1241
01:21:32.250 --> 01:21:35.291
You could set that sack of stones down
by the side of the road
1242
01:21:35.958 --> 01:21:37.290
and walk away from it.
1243
01:21:37.291 --> 01:21:38.499
Come on, Berniece.
1244
01:21:38.500 --> 01:21:41.915
Come on. Set it down
and walk away from it, Berniece.
1245
01:21:41.916 --> 01:21:46.957
Come on. Walk... walk over here and claim it
as an instrument of the Lord, Berniece.
1246
01:21:46.958 --> 01:21:50.250
You can walk over here right now
and make it into a celebration.
1247
01:21:51.833 --> 01:21:54.125
Avery, I done told you
I don't play on that piano.
1248
01:21:55.125 --> 01:21:56.082
Now or no other time.
1249
01:21:56.083 --> 01:21:59.291
The Bible say,
"The Lord is my refuge and my strength."
1250
01:22:00.458 --> 01:22:03.040
With the strength of God,
you can put the past behind you, Berniece.
1251
01:22:03.041 --> 01:22:05.625
With the strength of God,
you can do anything.
1252
01:22:06.958 --> 01:22:10.207
God don't ask you what you done.
God ask you what you gonna do.
1253
01:22:10.208 --> 01:22:13.916
And all you got to do
is walk over here right now and claim it.
1254
01:22:20.500 --> 01:22:21.541
Come on, Berniece.
1255
01:22:24.500 --> 01:22:25.333
Come on.
1256
01:22:27.041 --> 01:22:28.041
That's it.
1257
01:22:37.958 --> 01:22:38.916
Avery,
1258
01:22:39.875 --> 01:22:40.708
just...
1259
01:22:43.041 --> 01:22:44.083
go on
1260
01:22:45.875 --> 01:22:47.500
and let me finish my bath.
1261
01:22:51.291 --> 01:22:52.458
I'll see you tomorrow.
1262
01:22:59.875 --> 01:23:01.041
Okay, Berniece.
1263
01:23:04.333 --> 01:23:05.791
Okay, I'm gonna go home.
1264
01:23:07.500 --> 01:23:12.000
I... I'm gonna go home...
and I'm gonna read up on my Bible.
1265
01:23:13.125 --> 01:23:14.541
And tomorrow...
1266
01:23:18.916 --> 01:23:21.041
If the good Lord
give me strength tomorrow,
1267
01:23:22.416 --> 01:23:25.458
I'm gonna come by here,
and I'm gonna bless this house.
1268
01:23:27.916 --> 01:23:29.665
I'm gonna show you the power of the Lord.

Thank you.
1288
01:24:46.916 --> 01:24:49.458
You don't need to be out there
in them saloons.
1289
01:24:51.958 --> 01:24:54.208
Ain't no telling
what you liable to run into.
1290
01:24:55.958 --> 01:24:58.833
This one liable to cut you
as quick as this one shoot you.
1291
01:25:01.000 --> 01:25:03.082
You start out that fast life,
1292
01:25:03.083 --> 01:25:04.249
you can't keep it up.
1293
01:25:05.208 --> 01:25:06.708
Make you old quick.
1294
01:25:08.833 --> 01:25:11.500
I don't know what them women out there
be thinking about.
1295
01:25:15.916 --> 01:25:17.583
Mostly, they be lonely.
1296
01:25:19.041 --> 01:25:21.458
Looking for somebody
to spend the night with 'em.
1297
01:25:22.625 --> 01:25:25.416
Sometimes it matters who it is.
Sometimes it don't.
1298
01:25:27.500 --> 01:25:29.041
I used to be the same way.
1299
01:25:29.833 --> 01:25:30.791
Now,
1300
01:25:32.041 --> 01:25:33.208
it got to matter.
1301
01:25:34.000 --> 01:25:35.333
That's why I'm here now.
1302
01:25:36.500 --> 01:25:38.958
I like my women to be with me in a nice
1303
01:25:40.208 --> 01:25:41.541
and easy way.
1304
01:25:42.541 --> 01:25:44.625
That way, we can both enjoy ourselves.
1305
01:25:46.041 --> 01:25:47.958
We... we got to see how we fit together.
1306
01:25:49.166 --> 01:25:52.833
A woman that don't wanna take the time
to do that, I don't bother with.
1307
01:25:55.083 --> 01:25:56.083
Used to.
1308
01:25:58.250 --> 01:26:00.333
Used to bother with all of 'em.
1309
01:26:04.375 --> 01:26:05.916
Avery's nice.
1310
01:26:06.583 --> 01:26:09.583
You ought to go ahead and get married.
1311
01:26:12.791 --> 01:26:16.166
You be a preacher's wife,
you won't have to work.
1312
01:26:22.541 --> 01:26:24.666
I hate living by myself.
1313
01:26:27.166 --> 01:26:29.790
I ain't wanna be no strain on my mama,
1314
01:26:29.791 --> 01:26:32.541
so I left home when I was about
1315
01:26:34.166 --> 01:26:35.458
16.
1316
01:26:38.750 --> 01:26:42.625
Everything I tried seem like
it just didn't work out.
1317
01:26:51.375 --> 01:26:52.500
You keep trying.
1318
01:26:55.416 --> 01:26:56.708
It'll work out for you.
1319
01:26:57.708 --> 01:26:58.708
Mm.
1320
01:27:02.833 --> 01:27:04.291
It's getting kinda late.
1321
01:27:07.041 --> 01:27:09.166
I don't know where Boy Willie went off to.
1322
01:27:14.458 --> 01:27:16.415
I'm gonna take off these shoes.
1323
01:27:18.458 --> 01:27:20.708
My feet hurt.
1324
01:27:29.625 --> 01:27:30.916
Was you in bed?
1325
01:27:33.083 --> 01:27:35.207
I don't mean to be keeping you up.
1326
01:27:35.208 --> 01:27:36.625
You ain't keeping me up.
1327
01:27:39.791 --> 01:27:41.416
I won't be able to sleep anyway.
1328
01:27:44.166 --> 01:27:45.708
You got on that nightgown.
1329
01:27:50.708 --> 01:27:54.541
I likes when women wear
them fancy nightclothes and all.
1330
01:27:56.916 --> 01:27:59.375
It makes they skin look real pretty.
1331
01:28:03.625 --> 01:28:05.916
I got this at the five-and-ten-cent store.
1332
01:28:08.625 --> 01:28:09.958
It ain't so fancy.
1333
01:28:11.458 --> 01:28:12.291 line:5%
Well...
1334
01:28:16.291 --> 01:28:18.291
...I'mma sleep here on the couch.
1335
01:28:19.583 --> 01:28:21.500
I'm supposed to sleep on the floor, but
1336
01:28:22.000 --> 01:28:24.375
I don't reckon Boy Willie's
coming back tonight.
1337
01:28:26.166 --> 01:28:28.915
Wining Boy, he sold me this suit.
1338
01:28:31.208 --> 01:28:32.250
Told me
1339
01:28:33.583 --> 01:28:35.124
it was a magic suit.
1340
01:28:42.625 --> 01:28:45.083
Almost forgot I had this.
1341
01:28:49.500 --> 01:28:53.041
Some man sold me this for a dollar.
1342
01:28:53.625 --> 01:28:58.125
This the same kind of perfume
the queen of France wear.
1343
01:29:02.166 --> 01:29:03.708
That's what he told me.
1344
01:29:04.375 --> 01:29:06.875
I don't know if it's true or not,
but I smelled it.
1345
01:29:07.458 --> 01:29:08.625
Smelled good to me.
1346
01:29:10.500 --> 01:29:12.208
Here. Smell it.
1347
01:29:13.208 --> 01:29:14.375
See if you like it.
1348
01:29:19.875 --> 01:29:21.125
Smells nice.
1349
01:29:26.166 --> 01:29:27.125
Go on.
1350
01:29:29.583 --> 01:29:32.083
- You take it.
- I can't take it.
1351
01:29:32.958 --> 01:29:35.125
Here. You keep it.
1352
01:29:36.333 --> 01:29:38.291
You'll find somebody else to give it to.
1353
01:29:38.875 --> 01:29:40.416
No, I wanna give it to you.
1354
01:29:42.875 --> 01:29:44.083
Make you smell nice.
1355
01:29:50.875 --> 01:29:52.583
They tell me you supposed to...
1356
01:29:54.708 --> 01:29:55.625
put it...
1357
01:29:59.000 --> 01:30:00.125
right... right here.
1358
01:30:04.041 --> 01:30:05.208
Behind your ear.
1359
01:30:06.333 --> 01:30:07.333
If you put it there...
1360
01:30:09.666 --> 01:30:12.208
you... you smell nice all day.
1361
01:30:30.000 --> 01:30:32.541
There. You smell real good now.
1362
01:30:48.666 --> 01:30:50.625
You smell real good for Lymon.
1363
01:32:10.583 --> 01:32:13.207
Focus. Hey. Eye contact.
1364
01:32:13.208 --> 01:32:15.416
Look at your target. There you go. Turn.
1365
01:32:16.375 --> 01:32:17.458
There you go.
1366
01:32:18.250 --> 01:32:19.250
There you go.
1367
01:32:20.041 --> 01:32:21.708
I'll get you another. Come on.
1368
01:32:22.208 --> 01:32:24.790
After that,
all them white folks down around there
1369
01:32:24.791 --> 01:32:26.499
started falling down they wells.
1370
01:32:26.500 --> 01:32:27.957
Now, you ever seen a well?
1371
01:32:27.958 --> 01:32:28.874
No.
1372
01:32:28.875 --> 01:32:31.290
A well got a wall around it. Do it again.
1373
01:32:32.375 --> 01:32:33.957
It's hard to fall down a well.
1374
01:32:33.958 --> 01:32:35.707
- Wrist, wrist, wrist.
- That's the wrong one.
1375
01:32:35.708 --> 01:32:38.499
That's the wrong one.
This one. Look. There you go.
1376
01:32:38.500 --> 01:32:39.999
Couldn't nobody figure out too much
1377
01:32:40.000 --> 01:32:43.166
what was making all them fellas
fall down they wells.
1378
01:32:43.750 --> 01:32:48.250
So everybody say
Ghosts of the Yellow Dog pushed 'em.
1379
01:32:48.750 --> 01:32:50.666
Anybody ever see the ghost?
1380
01:32:51.166 --> 01:32:53.124
I told you they like the wind.
1381
01:32:53.125 --> 01:32:55.290
- Can you see the wind?
- No.
1382
01:32:55.291 --> 01:32:56.791
They like the wind.
1383
01:32:58.125 --> 01:32:59.291
You can't see 'em,
1384
01:33:00.000 --> 01:33:01.875
but sometimes, you be in trouble,
1385
01:33:02.708 --> 01:33:04.416
they might be around to help you.
1386
01:33:05.166 --> 01:33:09.749
They say if you go to where
the Southern cross the Yellow Dog...
1387
01:33:12.958 --> 01:33:16.166
...you go down there to where
them two railroads cross each other,
1388
01:33:17.541 --> 01:33:19.583
call out their names.
1389
01:33:22.666 --> 01:33:24.332
They say they talk back to you!
1390
01:33:27.291 --> 01:33:29.541
Now, I don't know.
I ain't never done that.
1391
01:33:33.750 --> 01:33:37.082
Maretha, go on and get ready
for me to do your hair. Go on.
1392
01:33:37.083 --> 01:33:39.458
Mama,
all the hair grease is gone.
1393
01:33:40.083 --> 01:33:42.500
Here. Run across the street
and get another can.
1394
01:33:44.125 --> 01:33:47.083
And you come straight back too.
Don't be playing around out there.
1395
01:33:47.666 --> 01:33:50.083
Watch the cars.
Be careful when you cross the street.
1396
01:33:56.291 --> 01:33:58.540
I done told you to leave my house.
1397
01:33:58.541 --> 01:34:01.750
Well, I ain't in your house.
I'm in Doaker's house.
1398
01:34:02.333 --> 01:34:05.915
Doaker! Tell him to leave.
Tell him to go on.
1399
01:34:05.916 --> 01:34:08.374
Boy Willie ain't done nothing
for me to put him out the house.
1400
01:34:08.375 --> 01:34:10.665
Now, I done told y'all,
if you can't get along,
1401
01:34:10.666 --> 01:34:13.083
just don't have nothing
to do with one another.
1402
01:34:14.291 --> 01:34:17.125
There. Now I'm out your part of the house.
1403
01:34:17.708 --> 01:34:19.707
Consider me done left your part.
1404
01:34:19.708 --> 01:34:22.707
Soon as Lymon get back with that rope,
I'm carrying that piano out of here.
1405
01:34:22.708 --> 01:34:26.040
- I got something to make you leave it.
- Got to come better than this .32-20.
1406
01:34:26.041 --> 01:34:30.540
Why don't y'all stop that?
Boy Willie, go on and leave her alone.
1407
01:34:30.541 --> 01:34:32.374
Why you got to stand there
and pick with her?
1408
01:34:32.375 --> 01:34:34.999
I ain't picking with her.
I told her the truth.
1409
01:34:35.000 --> 01:34:38.915
She the one talking about what she got.
I just told her what she better have.
1410
01:34:38.916 --> 01:34:40.415
That's why I don't talk to him.
1411
01:34:40.416 --> 01:34:42.915
That's the only kind of stuff
that come out his mouth.
1412
01:34:42.916 --> 01:34:45.332
You say Avery went home to get his Bible?
1413
01:34:45.333 --> 01:34:48.915
What Avery gonna do?
Can't do nothing with me.
1414
01:34:48.916 --> 01:34:51.207
I wish Avery would try to tell me
about this piano.
1415
01:34:53.500 --> 01:34:56.125
Worrying about me.
Should be worrying about that church.
1416
01:34:57.166 --> 01:35:00.332
Come on. Light that stove
and set that comb over there to get hot.
1417
01:35:00.333 --> 01:35:03.333
- I will say this for Avery.
- Get something for your shoulders.
1418
01:35:03.833 --> 01:35:05.457
He done figured out a path through life.
1419
01:35:05.458 --> 01:35:09.457
I don't agree with it, but he fixed it
the way he can go through it real smooth.
1420
01:35:09.458 --> 01:35:13.499
He liable to end up with a million dollars
he got from selling bread and wine.
1421
01:35:13.500 --> 01:35:15.207
- Ow!
- Be still, Maretha.
1422
01:35:15.208 --> 01:35:17.416
If you was a boy,
I wouldn't be going through all this.
1423
01:35:18.833 --> 01:35:21.999
- Don't you tell that girl that.
- You got nothing to do with this child.
1424
01:35:22.000 --> 01:35:24.915
Telling Maretha you wish she was a boy.
How you think that make her feel?
1425
01:35:24.916 --> 01:35:27.207
Boy Willie, go on and leave me alone.
1426
01:35:27.208 --> 01:35:32.124
Why don't you leave her alone?
What you got to pick with her for?
1427
01:35:32.125 --> 01:35:35.124
Why don't you go on out here
and see what's out here in these streets?
1428
01:35:35.125 --> 01:35:38.290
- Have something to tell down home.
- I'm waiting on Lymon to get back.
1429
01:35:38.291 --> 01:35:40.540
Why don't you go out there
and see what's in the streets?
1430
01:35:40.541 --> 01:35:42.290
You ain't got to work tomorrow.
1431
01:35:42.291 --> 01:35:44.999
I gotta stay right here.
Make sure y'all don't kill one another.
1432
01:35:45.000 --> 01:35:49.165
You ought to be talking to Berniece.
Telling Maretha she wish she was a boy.
1433
01:35:49.166 --> 01:35:51.874
What kind of thing is that
to say to a child?
1434
01:35:51.875 --> 01:35:54.958
If you gonna tell her something,
tell her about that piano.
1435
01:35:55.916 --> 01:35:58.499
You ain't even told her.
Like that's something to be ashamed of.
1436
01:35:58.500 --> 01:36:00.040
Let me take care of my child.
1437
01:36:00.041 --> 01:36:02.332
When you get one,
you can teach it what you want.
1438
01:36:02.333 --> 01:36:04.333
Why I wanna bring a child into this world?
1439
01:36:04.833 --> 01:36:07.916
Why I wanna bring somebody else
into all this for?
1440
01:36:08.666 --> 01:36:09.916
I tell you this.
1441
01:36:11.583 --> 01:36:15.625
If I was Rockefeller,
I'd have 40 or 50.
1442
01:36:16.125 --> 01:36:17.290
I'd make one every day
1443
01:36:17.291 --> 01:36:20.333
'cause they gonna start out in life
with all the advantages.
1444
01:36:20.833 --> 01:36:22.790
I ain't got no advantages to offer nobody.
1445
01:36:22.791 --> 01:36:26.457
Many is the time I looked at my daddy,
seen him staring off at his hands.
1446
01:36:26.458 --> 01:36:28.415
I got older, I know what he was thinking.
1447
01:36:28.416 --> 01:36:29.790
He was sitting there saying,
1448
01:36:29.791 --> 01:36:33.291
"I got these big old hands,
but what I'm gonna do with 'em?"
1449
01:36:34.208 --> 01:36:36.874
"Got these big old hands
capable of doing anything."
1450
01:36:36.875 --> 01:36:39.249
"I could take and build something
with these hands,
1451
01:36:39.250 --> 01:36:41.332
but where's the tools?"
1452
01:36:41.333 --> 01:36:43.083
"All I got is these hands."
1453
01:36:44.041 --> 01:36:47.249
Now, if he had his own land, Berniece,
he wouldn't have felt that way.
1454
01:36:47.250 --> 01:36:48.832
If he had something...
1455
01:36:48.833 --> 01:36:51.665
If he had something under his feet
that belonged to him,
1456
01:36:51.666 --> 01:36:52.915
he could stand up taller.
1457
01:36:52.916 --> 01:36:54.500
That's what I'm talking about.
1458
01:36:55.000 --> 01:36:57.415
Ain't no mystery to life.
You go out and meet it square on.
1459
01:36:57.416 --> 01:36:59.832
If you teach that girl
that she living at the bottom of life,
1460
01:36:59.833 --> 01:37:00.874
she gonna hate you.
1461
01:37:00.875 --> 01:37:04.458
I'm gonna teach her the truth.
It's just where she living.
1462
01:37:05.083 --> 01:37:08.290
Only she ain't got to stay there.
Turn your head over to the other side.
1463
01:37:08.291 --> 01:37:10.582
That might be your bottom,
but it ain't mine.
1464
01:37:10.583 --> 01:37:12.082
I'm living at the top of life.
1465
01:37:12.083 --> 01:37:14.582
I ain't gonna take my life
and throw it away at the bottom.
1466
01:37:14.583 --> 01:37:16.124
I'm in the world like everybody else.
1467
01:37:16.125 --> 01:37:19.582
The way I see it, everybody else
gotta come up a little to be where I am.
1468
01:37:19.583 --> 01:37:21.540
You right at the bottom
with the rest of us.
1469
01:37:21.541 --> 01:37:23.665
If you believe that,
you'll act that way.
1470
01:37:23.666 --> 01:37:25.499
If you act that way,
that's where you'll be.
1471
01:37:25.500 --> 01:37:28.749
Doaker, Berniece say all colored folks
living at the bottom of life.
1472
01:37:28.750 --> 01:37:31.040
I tell her she think that,
that's where she gonna be.
1473
01:37:31.041 --> 01:37:33.832
You living at the bottom of life?
Is that how you see yourself?
1474
01:37:33.833 --> 01:37:37.790
I'm just living the best way I know how.
Ain't thinking about no top or no bottom.
1475
01:37:37.791 --> 01:37:39.790
That's what
I tried to tell Berniece.
1476
01:37:39.791 --> 01:37:43.832
I don't know where she got that from.
Sound like something Avery would say.
1477
01:37:43.833 --> 01:37:46.707
Avery think 'cause the white man
give him a turkey for Thanksgiving,
1478
01:37:46.708 --> 01:37:48.582
that make him better than everybody else.
1479
01:37:48.583 --> 01:37:50.499
That gonna raise him up
out the bottom of life.
1480
01:37:50.500 --> 01:37:53.915
I don't need nobody to give me a turkey.
I can get my own turkey.
1481
01:37:53.916 --> 01:37:57.707
All you got to do is get out of my way.
I'll get me two or three turkeys.
1482
01:37:57.708 --> 01:38:00.582
You can't even get a chicken,
let alone two or three turkeys.
1483
01:38:00.583 --> 01:38:03.165
Talking about get out your way.
Ain't nobody in your way.
1484
01:38:03.166 --> 01:38:04.874
Straighten your head up, Maretha.
1485
01:38:04.875 --> 01:38:07.333
Don't be bending down like that.
You hold your head up.
1486
01:38:09.125 --> 01:38:11.916
All you ever had going for you is talk.
1487
01:38:13.000 --> 01:38:15.500
Your whole life,
that's all you ever had going for you.
1488
01:38:24.333 --> 01:38:27.458
I'm gonna tell you something about me.
1489
01:38:29.208 --> 01:38:31.000
I was born to a time of fire.
1490
01:38:31.916 --> 01:38:34.791
The world ain't wanted no part of me,
and I could see that
1491
01:38:35.625 --> 01:38:38.375
ever since I was about... seven.
1492
01:38:39.583 --> 01:38:41.916
The world say it's better off without me.
1493
01:38:42.875 --> 01:38:44.791
See, Berniece accept that.
1494
01:38:45.375 --> 01:38:47.624
She trying to prove something
to the world.
1495
01:38:47.625 --> 01:38:51.332
The world a better place 'cause of me.
I don't see it like Berniece.
1496
01:38:51.333 --> 01:38:54.707
I got a heart that beats.
It beats just as loud as the next fella's.
1497
01:38:54.708 --> 01:38:57.291
Don't care if he Black or white.
1498
01:38:59.750 --> 01:39:01.250
Sometimes it beats louder.
1499
01:39:02.333 --> 01:39:05.040
And when it beats louder,
then everybody can hear it.
1500
01:39:05.041 --> 01:39:07.582
Some people get scared of that.
Like Berniece.
1501
01:39:07.583 --> 01:39:10.416
Some people get scared
to hear a nigger's heart beating.
1502
01:39:13.250 --> 01:39:15.208
But my mama ain't birth me for nothing.
1503
01:39:16.958 --> 01:39:18.208
So what I got to do?
1504
01:39:20.791 --> 01:39:25.000
Gotta make my mark along the road,
like when... when you write on a tree.
1505
01:39:27.583 --> 01:39:28.833
"Boy Willie was here."
1506
01:39:32.541 --> 01:39:34.583
That's all I'm trying to do
with that piano.
1507
01:39:36.125 --> 01:39:40.541
Trying to make my mark along the road
like... like my daddy done.
1508
01:39:44.375 --> 01:39:47.082
Other than that, I ain't thinking
about nothing Berniece got to say.
1509
01:39:52.791 --> 01:39:54.500
Where you been, nigger?
1510
01:39:55.375 --> 01:39:56.541
Oh, I thought you was Lymon.
1511
01:39:58.750 --> 01:40:02.415
- Hey, Berniece, look who's here.
- Come on in, Avery. Have a seat.
1512
01:40:02.416 --> 01:40:05.041
Don't pay neither of them no mind.
They been fussing all day.
1513
01:40:06.000 --> 01:40:08.083
Here, set that comb back
over on that stove.
1514
01:40:08.708 --> 01:40:11.624
Berniece said you was coming by
to bless the house.
1515
01:40:11.625 --> 01:40:13.625
Yeah, I done read up on my Bible.
1516
01:40:14.125 --> 01:40:16.624
She asked me to see about
getting rid of Sutter's ghost.
1517
01:40:16.625 --> 01:40:19.790
Ain't no ghost in this house.
That's all in Berniece's head.
1518
01:40:19.791 --> 01:40:21.082
Let her find that out.
1519
01:40:21.083 --> 01:40:24.332
If blessing the house gonna make her
feel better, what it got to do with you?
1520
01:40:24.333 --> 01:40:26.125
Berniece say Maretha seen him too.
1521
01:40:27.250 --> 01:40:30.249
I don't know, but I found
a part in the Bible to bless this house.
1522
01:40:30.250 --> 01:40:32.207
If he here,
then that ought to make him go away.
1523
01:40:32.208 --> 01:40:34.332
You worse than Berniece
believing that stuff.
1524
01:40:34.333 --> 01:40:37.124
Talking about if he here.
Go on up there and find out.
1525
01:40:37.125 --> 01:40:39.083
I've been up there, and I ain't seen him.
1526
01:40:39.791 --> 01:40:43.707
If you say that Bible will make the man
leave her imagination, you might be right.
1527
01:40:43.708 --> 01:40:45.832
- But if--
- Boy Willie, why don't you be quiet?
1528
01:40:45.833 --> 01:40:48.374
Getting in the man's business.
This got nothing to do with you.
1529
01:40:48.375 --> 01:40:49.707
Let him do what he gonna do.
1530
01:40:49.708 --> 01:40:52.458
I ain't stopping him.
Avery ain't got power to do nothing.
1531
01:40:53.125 --> 01:40:55.666
I ain't got no power, Boy Willie.
God got the power.
1532
01:40:56.333 --> 01:40:58.207
God got power
over everything in his creation.
1533
01:40:58.208 --> 01:41:01.791
God can do anything. God say,
"As I commandeth, so shall it be."
1534
01:41:02.375 --> 01:41:05.125
God said, "Let there be light,"
and there was light.
1535
01:41:05.625 --> 01:41:08.165
He made the world in six days,
and he rested on the seventh.
1536
01:41:08.166 --> 01:41:11.082
God's got a wonderful power.
God got power over life and death.
1537
01:41:11.083 --> 01:41:13.457
I ain't afraid of him chasing away
no little old ghost.
1538
01:41:19.125 --> 01:41:21.832
Where you been? I been waiting on you.
You run off somewhere.
1539
01:41:21.833 --> 01:41:24.124
I ran into Grace.
1540
01:41:24.125 --> 01:41:26.208
I ain't thinking about
no Grace nothing.
1541
01:41:30.833 --> 01:41:32.083
Hi, Berniece.
1542
01:41:33.791 --> 01:41:36.124
Lymon, give me that rope,
get on the other side of the piano.
1543
01:41:36.125 --> 01:41:38.915
Now, Boy Willie, don't start nothing now.
1544
01:41:38.916 --> 01:41:40.790
Leave that piano alone.
1545
01:41:40.791 --> 01:41:44.000
Watch that board, Lymon.
Stay out of this, Doaker.
1546
01:41:44.541 --> 01:41:47.790
You can't just take the piano.
How you gonna just take the piano?
1547
01:41:47.791 --> 01:41:50.457
Berniece ain't said nothing
about selling that piano.
1548
01:41:50.458 --> 01:41:53.749
She ain't got to. Come on, Lymon.
We got to lift one end at a time.
1549
01:41:53.750 --> 01:41:56.915
- What we gonna do with the rope?
- Just get on the other side.
1550
01:41:56.916 --> 01:41:58.333
Boy Willie-- Berniece.
1551
01:41:58.958 --> 01:42:01.499
Boy Willie,
you sure you wanna do this?
1552
01:42:01.500 --> 01:42:04.957
Oh, Berniece, Boy Willie,
y'all ought to sit down and talk this out.
1553
01:42:04.958 --> 01:42:06.250
Ain't nothing to talk out.
1554
01:42:08.666 --> 01:42:10.250
I'm through talking to Berniece.
1555
01:42:10.833 --> 01:42:12.040
Come on, Lymon.
1556
01:42:12.041 --> 01:42:13.874
Maretha, get on out the way.
1557
01:42:13.875 --> 01:42:15.415
Get her out the way, Doaker!
1558
01:42:15.416 --> 01:42:18.041
Come on. Come on.
Go and do like your mama said.
1559
01:42:20.583 --> 01:42:23.541
Man, these niggers round here!
1560
01:42:24.416 --> 01:42:26.749
I stopped down there at Seefus.
1561
01:42:26.750 --> 01:42:30.165
These folks jumping back
and getting off the sidewalk
1562
01:42:30.166 --> 01:42:32.791
talking about a Patchneck Red's coming.
1563
01:42:33.708 --> 01:42:35.083
Come to find out,
1564
01:42:35.958 --> 01:42:38.208
you know who they was talking about?
1565
01:42:40.083 --> 01:42:43.083
Old John D. from up around Tyler.
1566
01:42:43.875 --> 01:42:47.916
He got everybody scared of him.
Calling him Patchneck Red.
1567
01:42:48.666 --> 01:42:52.874
They don't know
I whupped the nigger's head in one time.
1568
01:42:52.875 --> 01:42:54.957
Make sure
that board don't slide, Lymon.
1569
01:42:54.958 --> 01:42:56.624
Hey, Boy Willie, what you got?
1570
01:42:56.625 --> 01:42:58.749
I know you got a pint
stuck up in your coat.
1571
01:42:58.750 --> 01:43:00.374
Get out the way, Wining Boy.
1572
01:43:00.375 --> 01:43:02.707
Hey, Doaker, what you got?
Give me a drink. I want a drink.
1573
01:43:02.708 --> 01:43:05.332
It look like you done had enough
of whatever it was.
1574
01:43:05.333 --> 01:43:08.082
Talking about "What you got?"
Find somewhere to lay down.
1575
01:43:08.083 --> 01:43:10.332
I ain't worried
about no place to lie down.
1576
01:43:10.333 --> 01:43:13.707
I can always find me a place to lay down
in Berniece's house.
1577
01:43:13.708 --> 01:43:16.332
Ain't that right, Berniece?
1578
01:43:16.333 --> 01:43:19.040
Wining Boy, go sit down somewhere.
1579
01:43:19.041 --> 01:43:21.790
You been drinking all day.
Come in here smelling like an old polecat.
1580
01:43:21.791 --> 01:43:23.957
You know Berniece don't like
all that drinking.
1581
01:43:23.958 --> 01:43:26.416
I ain't disrespecting Berniece.
1582
01:43:26.958 --> 01:43:29.333
Berniece, am I disrespecting you?
1583
01:43:29.833 --> 01:43:31.833
I'm just trying to be nice.
1584
01:43:33.000 --> 01:43:36.666
I been with strangers all day,
and they treated me like family.
1585
01:43:37.416 --> 01:43:40.708
I come in here to family,
you treat me like a stranger.
1586
01:43:41.583 --> 01:43:43.707
I don't need your whiskey.
1587
01:43:43.708 --> 01:43:45.208
I can buy my own.
1588
01:43:45.708 --> 01:43:48.207
I wanted your company, not your whiskey.
1589
01:43:48.208 --> 01:43:51.040
Go upstairs and lay down.
You don't need nothing else to drink.
1590
01:43:51.041 --> 01:43:53.166
I ain't thinking about no laying down!
1591
01:43:53.666 --> 01:43:56.832
Me and Boy Willie fixing to party.
Ain't that right, Boy Willie?
1592
01:43:56.833 --> 01:43:57.915
Tell 'em.
1593
01:43:57.916 --> 01:44:00.290
I'm fixing to play me some piano.
Watch this.
1594
01:44:00.291 --> 01:44:02.457
Come on. Me and Lymon
fixing to move the piano.
1595
01:44:02.458 --> 01:44:05.707
- No, no. You ain't moving this piano.
- Get out the way, Wining Boy.
1596
01:44:05.708 --> 01:44:09.707
You ain't taking this piano
out the house. You got to take me with it!
1597
01:44:09.708 --> 01:44:11.790
Get out the way, Wining Boy.
Doaker, get him.
1598
01:44:11.791 --> 01:44:14.000
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
1599
01:44:15.666 --> 01:44:17.916
This a song I wrote for Cleotha.
1600
01:44:19.875 --> 01:44:21.791
I wrote this song in her memory.
1601

Hey, Doaker, did you feel that?
1612
01:45:25.791 --> 01:45:28.541
Hey, Berniece, did you get cold?
1613
01:45:30.250 --> 01:45:32.124
- Hey, Doaker--
- What you calling me for?
1614
01:45:32.125 --> 01:45:33.665
I believe that's Sutter.
1615
01:45:33.666 --> 01:45:36.124
Avery. Go on and bless the house.
1616
01:45:36.125 --> 01:45:38.749
You need to bless that piano
if you're gonna bless anything.
1617
01:45:38.750 --> 01:45:40.707
It ain't done nothing but cause trouble.
1618
01:45:40.708 --> 01:45:42.874
You gonna bless anything,
go on and bless that.
1619
01:45:42.875 --> 01:45:45.624
Doaker, if he wanna bless something,
let him bless everything.
1620
01:45:45.625 --> 01:45:47.540
The kitchen, the upstairs.
1621
01:45:47.541 --> 01:45:50.000
Berniece, put me some water
in this bottle.
1622
01:46:03.708 --> 01:46:04.833
Hold this candle.
1623
01:46:14.916 --> 01:46:16.166
Whatever you do,
1624
01:46:17.375 --> 01:46:19.041
you be sure this don't go out.
1625
01:46:27.000 --> 01:46:28.500
Maretha, stay here.
1626
01:46:35.208 --> 01:46:36.250
Holy Father...
1627
01:46:38.375 --> 01:46:40.416
we gather here this evening
1628
01:46:41.541 --> 01:46:42.833
in the Holy Name
1629
01:46:43.333 --> 01:46:44.958
to cast out the spirit
1630
01:46:46.083 --> 01:46:48.207
of one James Sutter.
1631
01:46:48.208 --> 01:46:49.165
Yes.
1632
01:46:49.166 --> 01:46:52.958
May this vial of water
be empowered with thy spirit, Father God.
1633
01:46:53.666 --> 01:46:58.290
May it be a weapon and a shield
against the presence of all evil, Father.
1634
01:46:58.291 --> 01:47:02.458
May it be a cleansing and a blessing
upon this humble abode.
1635
01:47:03.166 --> 01:47:04.749
Where there is good,
1636
01:47:04.750 --> 01:47:07.582
so shall evil be scattered
to the four winds.
1637
01:47:07.583 --> 01:47:09.291
Get thee behind me, Satan.
1638
01:47:10.125 --> 01:47:15.332
Get thee behind the face of righteousness
as we glorify your Holy Name.
1639
01:47:24.375 --> 01:47:26.457
- Yes.
- Oh, yes. Yes, God.
1640
01:47:26.458 --> 01:47:28.749
We... we feel your presence, Father.
1641
01:47:28.750 --> 01:47:30.749
We... we honor your presence, God.
1642
01:47:30.750 --> 01:47:32.707
- Mm-hmm
- We... we thank you, Father.
1643
01:47:32.708 --> 01:47:35.999
We... we feel your presence
in this space, Father God.
1644
01:47:36.000 --> 01:47:37.749
- Yes, we thank you.
- Yes.
1645
01:47:37.750 --> 01:47:39.291
And bless this house.
1646
01:47:40.333 --> 01:47:42.790
Get thee behind the... the hammer of truth
1647
01:47:42.791 --> 01:47:45.999
as it breaketh down
the wall of falsehood, Father God.
1648
01:47:46.000 --> 01:47:47.874
- We thank you--
- All this old preaching stuff.
1649
01:47:47.875 --> 01:47:49.458
Hell, just tell him to leave.
1650
01:47:50.666 --> 01:47:52.874
I will sprinkle clean water upon you,
1651
01:47:52.875 --> 01:47:56.832
and ye shall be clean
from all your... your filthiness.
1652
01:47:56.833 --> 01:47:59.415
