BLANCHE (spoken): We start fresh when you are free in the eyes of the law and saved in the eyes of God ELEANOR (spoken): Amen STELLA (spoken): Praise the Lord TRISH (spoken): Thank you Jesus BLANCHE: We can't spend our whole lives hidin', Buck That ain't no way to live STELLA (spoken): Uh uh TRISH (spoken): You hear that Buck? BLANCHE: It is time to wipe the slate clean Ask the good Lord to forgive ELEANORE (spoken): Amen STELLA (spoken): Praise the Lord TRISH (spoken): Thank you, Jesus, twice! BLANCHE: You've gotta serve your sentence without fail STELLA (spoken): Whoo! TRISH (spoken): Buckle up BLANCHE: Buck, you are goin' back to jail BUCK (spoken): What the hell are you talking about? BLANCHE: Won't be scared to turn the corner Or to open our front door When you're on the side of justice You ain't nervous of the law Now pull yourself together Because you've gone pale Buck, you are goin' back to jail BUCK (spoken): But baby, you don't know what it's like in there! BLANCHE: I know it's hard To share a cell When you've got nothin' to look at Except prisoners who smell But when you're done When you have served your time We'll still be young and in our prime BUCK: Ain't been free more than a minute Ain't had time to change my shirt I've been dreamin' of a hot meal With you as my dessert Bring your face close to mine And just let me inhale BLANCHE: Buck, you are going back to jail BUCK (spoken): But baby— Blanche (spoken): We will call the sheriff and tell him you are turning yourself in Right after church tomorrow Buck (spoken): Blanche! Blanche (spoken): It's only just as hard on me, daddy! Well, Stella, you know what it's like to have a husband in jail Tell him how hard it is not having Carl around! [STELLA] Are you kiddin'? It's a treat to get my nails done And have time to read a book Sure beats washin' out his longjohns It's a pleasure not to cook [BLANCHE] (spoken) Okay, that's enough [STELLA] Thank god those prison walls Are much too tall to scale My darlin's nice and safe in jail BUCK (spoken): I don't want her comin' 'round here no more BLANCHE (spoken): Well, Trish's husband's been in jail for two years now And she's miserable without her man TRISH (spoken): Mmhmm At first, I really missed him I thought I would waste away Then I met this boy from Tucson And he owned a Chevrolet [BLANCHE] That's enough [TRISH] He had a lot of things that my Joe lacked Like teeth and hair and cash to be exact I've now got lots of habits I can't curtail [BLANCHE] Heavens to Betsy! [TRISH] I gotta keep him locked in jail ELEANORE & STELLA & TRISH: Keep 'em inside Keep 'em inside If we see 'em once a month We will be more than satisfied Ain't that the truth Don't mean to be unkind Can't put a price on peace of mind BUCK (spoken): Blanche! BLANCHE: I ain't like these other women I will wait till Kingdom come I want the world to see that I ain't married to some bum It will be hard for us but we'll come through BUCK: I can't believe what you are askin' me to do BLANCHE: One thing's for certain, our love won't go stale TRISH (spoken): Jesus, close your eyes BUCK (spoken): Blanche, I ain't goin' back BLANCHE: Yes, Buck, you're goin' back WOMEN: Tomorrow he'll be back in jail
