I'm not sure if there's a[00:00:09]

Point to this story[00:00:11]

But im going to[00:00:12]

Tell it again[00:00:13]

So many other people[00:00:17]

Trying to tell the tale[00:00:18]

But not one of em[00:00:19]

Knows the end[00:00:21]

It was a junk house[00:00:35]

In South Carolina[00:00:36]

Held a boy the age of ten[00:00:38]

Along with his older[00:00:43]

Brother billy his mother[00:00:44]

And her boyfriend[00:00:46]

Who was a triple loser[00:00:48]

With blue tattoos[00:00:49]

That were given to him[00:00:51]

When he was young[00:00:52]

And a drunk temper that[00:00:54]

Was easy to lose[00:00:55]

Thank god he didn't[00:00:57]

Own a gun[00:00:58]

Billy woke up[00:01:06]

In the back of his truck[00:01:07]

Took a minute to[00:01:08]

Open his eyes[00:01:09]

He took a peep into[00:01:13]

The back of the house[00:01:14]

And found himself[00:01:15]

A big surprise[00:01:16]

He didnt see his brother[00:01:19]

But there was his mother[00:01:20]

With a red-headed[00:01:21]

Head in her hands[00:01:22]

While the boyfriend had his[00:01:24]

Gloves wrapped around[00:01:26]

An old grease[00:01:27]

Trying to choke a man[00:01:28]

Billy looked up from[00:02:12]

The window to the truck[00:02:12]

Threw up and had to[00:02:14]

Struggle to stand[00:02:15]

He saw that redneck[00:02:19]

Bastard with a hammer[00:02:20]

That priest was[00:02:21]

A shell of a man[00:02:22]

That priest was putting up[00:02:25]

The fight of his life[00:02:26]

But he was old and[00:02:27]

He was bound to lose[00:02:28]

The boyfriend hit[00:02:30]

As hard as he could[00:02:32]

And knocked the priest[00:02:33]

Right down to his shoes[00:02:34]

Well now Billy never[00:02:41]

Actually met[00:02:42]

The preacher lying[00:02:44]

There in the room[00:02:45]

He heard himself say that[00:02:49]

Must be my daddy[00:02:50]

Then he knew what[00:02:51]

He was gonna do[00:02:52]

Billy got up e[00:02:55]

Nough courage to give[00:02:56]

And grabbed the first[00:02:57]

Blunt thing he could find[00:02:58]

It was a cold glass[00:03:01]

Bottle of milk[00:03:02]

That was delivered[00:03:03]

Every morning at nine[00:03:03]

Billy broke in and[00:03:47]

Saw the blood on the floor[00:03:48]

And he turned around[00:03:49]

And put the lock on the door[00:03:50]

He looked straight[00:03:52]

Into the boyfriend eye[00:03:53]

His mother was a ghost[00:03:55]

Too upset to cry[00:03:56]

He took a step to[00:03:58]

The man on the ground[00:03:59]

But his mom trickled out[00:04:01]

An inaudible sound[00:04:02]

He heard the boyfriend[00:04:04]

Shout Get out [00:04:05]

And Billy said not til[00:04:06]

I know what[00:04:07]

This is all about[00:04:08]

Well this preacher here was[00:04:09]

Attackin your momma[00:04:11]

But he just knew that[00:04:12]

He was caught in the drama[00:04:14]

So billy aim right[00:04:15]

At his face[00:04:17]

Smashed the bottle of the man[00:04:18]

Who left his dad in disgrace[00:04:19]

The white milk dripped down[00:04:21]

With the blood[00:04:23]

And the boyfriend fell dead[00:04:24]

For good[00:04:25]

Right next to the preacher[00:04:26]

Who was gaspin' for air[00:04:28]

Billy shouted why daddy did[00:04:29]

You come back here [00:04:30]

Momma reached behind[00:04:33]

The sugar and honey[00:04:34]

Pulled out an envelope[00:04:35]

Filled with money[00:04:36]

Your daddy gave us this[00:04:38]

She collapsed in tears[00:04:39]

He's being paying[00:04:41]

The bills for years[00:04:42]

Momma lets but this body[00:04:44]

Under the trees[00:04:45]

Putt daddy in the truck and[00:04:46]

Head for Tennessee[00:04:48]

Just then his little[00:04:50]

Brother came in[00:04:51]
