Very wealthy.

Six feet under.


But she was granted one more start


The convent of the sacred heart!


When'd you get here?


1920


How old were you?


Don't remember


Then what happened?


I met amos
And he stole my heart away
Convinced me to elope one day


A convent girl! a run-away marriage!
Oh, it's too terrible. you poor, poor dear.


Who's fred casely?


My ex-boyfriend.


Why'd you shoot him?


I was leavin'.


Was her angry?


Like a madman
Still I said, "fred, move along."


She knew that she was doin' wrong.


Then describe it.


He came toward me.


With a pistol?


From my bureau.


Did you fight him?


Like a tiger.


He had strength and she had none.


And yet we both reached for the gun
Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes we both
Oh yes we both
Oh yes, we both reached for
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun
Oh yes, we both reached for the gun
For the gun.


Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes they both
Oh yes, they both
Oh yes, they both reached for
The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun,
Oh yes, they both reached for the gun
For the gun.


Understandable. understandable
Yes, it's perfectly understandable
Comprehensible. comprehensible
Not a bit reprehensible
It's so defensible!


How're you feeling?


Very frightened

All I'd say is
Though my choo-choo jumped the track
I'd give my life to bring him back


And?
