Something wrong with the clip?

Charles Bushman:
There was a young man by the name of John Leggit Hunter who ran a filling station business, a good filling station business and he's one of these young men we all come across in life, I'm sure you've come across 'em, who did not deserve what he had and what he had was a beautiful young bride named Sarah. She was a Georgia peach. In fact, she was the picture I had in my mind of the perfect woman so I took it upon myself to take her away from John Leggit Hunter who did not deserve her. Oh, I don't know if I mentioned this but he was a Frenchman who claimed to be an Englishman. It took a lot of strong nylon cord to get her away from him because she was a fighter as well as being a Georgia peach.

Yeah, there was a young man
named John Legit Hunter
who was in the filling station business
- a good filling station business.
But he was one of these young
men we run across in life,
I'm sure you've run across 'em, who
didn't deserve what he had, you know?
And one of the things
he had was this...
beautiful young bride,
Sarah.
She was a Georgia peach.
In fact, she was more like the picture I had
in my mind than any woman I'd ever seen.
So I took it upon myself to take
her away from John Legit Hunter,
who did not deserve
her, you know?
Oh, I don't know if I told you,
but he was a Frenchman who
claimed to be an Englishman.
Yeah... Took a lot of strong nylon
cord to get her away from him,
'cause she was a fighter as
well as being a Georgia peach.
I think there must have
been a little mix-up.
I talked to your sponsor or
teacher, or whoever he is,
and I told him that there
couldn't be any pictures.
It's supposed to be like an article or a
story, something like that, isn't that right?
Well, yeah, it's for the school
newspaper, but it has pictures.
I mean, it's a regular
paper, you know?
Karl's real sensitive about
having his picture made.
He wouldn't even be on the bulletin
board for the Easter collage.
Now...
a shovel just makes too
goddamn much racket.
All I can do is talk to
him, see what he says.
You gotta make something explode
to truly understand it.
I mean, you gotta examine all those little
tiny particles while they're still on fire.
Karl, I've gotta take you
down to the old classroom.
Mr. Woolridge has some people
for you to see down there.
Come on, let's go.
