:18:04
Mama says what are you doing
back here and Mr Johnson's leaving.
:18:08
You tell your mama that after all
the dancing I done tonight with Sidney,
:18:13
I am resting and unavailable.
:18:17
Sidney took you dancing? Where to?
:18:22
Oh, no place much.
:18:24
- Just the Peabody Hotel.
- The Peabody Hotel!
:18:28
Sidney took you all the way
to the Peabody Hotel in Memphis? Wow!
:18:32
- Did he buy you dinner?
- Willie, you don't start with dinner.
:18:38
They have cocktails or highballs.
:18:42
Or French champagne,
which is sweet and exceedingly bubbly.
:18:47
And when you drink it and start dancing,
the whole place,
:18:51
with its diamond-crystal chandeliers
and the waiters in the red jackets
:18:55
and the menus with tassels on them,
all get dizzy and shaky,
:18:59
like it'll all come down on you.
:19:02
But you have to hide it and so you say,
"Tipsy? I'm not the slightest bit tipsy.
:19:08
"It is just your magnificent dancing
makes me breathless!"
:19:12
Then he stops and holds your blushing,
soft face in his hands and he says:
:19:17
"Miss Starr, Miss Willie Starr,
:19:20
"surely you are the most beautiful
creature I have ever seen."
:19:25
That the same Peabody Hotel
in Memphis
:19:29
where they have the alligators and ducks
swimming in that pond in the lobby?
:19:33
Yes, the very same one.
:19:36
Yeah, I'd like to see that.
Thank you for the supper, Willie.
:19:44
I'd like to see how they stop the alligators
eating the ducks
:19:48
in that little pond that they all swim in.
:19:51
Makes you think... doesn't it?
:19:55
Smart Alec!
