Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
[walks onto the porch where Woody is sitting]
I don't know if you knew it or not, but you're looking at an insane man. Woody Guthrie:
Well, uh... why don't you take off a couple of sweaters and... sit down? Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
[sits down on the porch swing]
I really am insane. Woody Guthrie:
Well... uh... yeah, so am I, off and on. Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
I heard tales about you in the next town... and thought I better come. I been in the insane asylum twice. Woody Guthrie:
You have? I had- I had better watch out to have you around the place. Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
I wasn't crazy when they sent me there, but then I beat up them two guards in the pea patch and... now I'm-a here; even if they get me pretty quick, well, I wanted to tell you: I got newsreels in my head! Woody Guthrie:
Newsreels? Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
Yeah. Since I was a kid, and my mama always told me I was crazy, they just never stop. Woody Guthrie:
What kind of Newsreels? Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
That the boom is over and the weeds are blowing out... and the dust storms are getting darker and... there's people fighting and killing, and there's kids sick. Woody Guthrie:
Ain't nothing wrong with your head. Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
I see these shapes and designs and I see how to build roads better, and... Is them your brushes? Woody Guthrie:
Uh, sure. Yeah, I'm... I'm, uh... kind of a painter. Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
I sure wish I could sit down and paint all them pictures I see. Sometimes... I think I could just spend forever just painting and painting all them pictures. Woody Guthrie:
Well... why don't you just take these? Heavy Chandler - 'Insane' Man:
Take 'em? But I ain't got no money. Woody Guthrie:
You don't need no money, just take 'em, I got plenty more, and some of this paint here. Take those ideas, and, uh... and find yourself some place where, uh... where nobody, uh... nobody will bother you, and just put those things down... just put those things down on paper, you know? [Woody gives some paint and brushes to the former asylum patient]
