I don’t need your help Steve (waves his arm at him). (Debra responds)
Look… uh, Debra (gestures at Debra), we’re kind of in the middle of something here (waves his hand at the other guys). (Debra responds)
(The boys look awkwardly back and forth at each other)
(Rick slowly gets up and turns toward Debra and puts his hands up in a stop sign) Hold on a minute, okay?
Well me and the boys were just sittin’ ‘round here in this honky tonk, Having some fun, talking and feeling fine, Then you come over and started making those eyes at me, Well honey, guess I’d better lay it on the line.
Don’t go away mad, just go away, There ain’t no reason for a woman like you to stay. I’ve been all over and I’ve seen a lot of ladies but you sure take the cake, Don’t go away mad, just go away.
I like a woman who smiles and says she’d love to dance, Here’s the situation, you’ve gone a little too far, read my lips. You see I’m just not in the mood, for a big bunch of attitude, So maybe it’s time, to move it on down the bar.
Now I might suggest, you put down the bottle and ease off the throttle This didn’t start well, and I hope you’re seeing that too. Now I’m not bragging I’m so darn special I can have my pick of girls, But don’t hate me honey if I say that girl is not you.
I really don’t wanna have to say this twice, don’t be settin’ your sights on me. Never wanna hear you calling me dear, you’re barking up the wrong dang tree.
(The guys high five each other. Debra stalks away with Shelia. The boys sit back down and Mike makes a comment.)
(Rick’s eyes get big, takes a breath) Whoa, got a point there. Wasn’t trying to be mean, but like she kinda ticked me off. (Pauses) Girls were nice enough, I guess. Probably shoulda just chilled a little.
