00:00:00.690 --> 00:00:04.440 align:middle line:84%
All night in the Iowa cafe,
Saturday night and the farm

00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:08.790 align:middle line:84%
boys happy with their pay,
fine bodies and clean faces,

00:00:08.790 --> 00:00:11.490 align:middle line:84%
all of them proud
to be drunk, not

00:00:11.490 --> 00:00:14.280 align:middle line:90%
real meanness, merely energy.

00:00:14.280 --> 00:00:18.360 align:middle line:84%
At the next table they talk
cars for hours, friends coming

00:00:18.360 --> 00:00:20.850 align:middle line:90%
and going, hollering over.

00:00:20.850 --> 00:00:23.280 align:middle line:84%
The one with a heavy
face and pale hair

00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:26.610 align:middle line:84%
kept talking about the
Buick he had three years ago

00:00:26.610 --> 00:00:29.100 align:middle line:84%
and how it could take
anyone in second.

00:00:29.100 --> 00:00:32.580 align:middle line:84%
Wasn't that true, damn right,
moaning that he should never

00:00:32.580 --> 00:00:33.480 align:middle line:90%
have sold it.

00:00:33.480 --> 00:00:35.220 align:middle line:90%
Didn't he show old [? Elb ?]?

00:00:35.220 --> 00:00:38.160 align:middle line:84%
Bet your ass that 4th
of July when Shelvadeen

00:00:38.160 --> 00:00:40.590 align:middle line:84%
got too much beer and
patriotism and gave some

00:00:40.590 --> 00:00:42.240 align:middle line:90%
to everybody down by the river.

00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:45.180 align:middle line:84%
[? Elb? ] so mad because I left
him like he was standing still.

00:00:45.180 --> 00:00:46.650 align:middle line:90%
He didn't get any.

00:00:46.650 --> 00:00:49.440 align:middle line:84%
"Best car that ever was and
never should have let it go,"

00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:53.030 align:middle line:84%
he said, tears
falling on his eggs.
