They had to go and tell Bo, a course, when he come in a li'l after eleven. Then I told 'em I was quittin'.I'd been wantin' to find another job anyway.and I picked up my share of the kitty.but darn it, I had to go and tell 'em I was takin' the midnight bus. So I went to the Blue Dragon last night and just sang fer the first show. One a the other girls at the Blue Dragon lived on a farm 'cross the river in Kansas. I knew that if I was around the Blue Dragon that night, that's what'd happen. He kep tellin' me all week, he and Virge'd be by the night the rodeo ended and they'd pick me up and we'd all start back to Montana t'gether.
If any other fella claimed t'have a date with me, Bo'd beat him up. At night, a course, he had to go back to the rodeo, but he was back to the Blue Dragon as soon as the rodeo was over, in time fer the midnight show. He stayed by my side all day long, like a shadow. But when I tried to reason with him, he wouldn't listen to a word. The very next mornin', he wakes up and hollers, "Yippee! We're gettin' married." I honestly thought he was crazy. But it was only what ya might call a sexual attraction. Oh, I'd seen 'em in movies, a course, but never in the flesh.Anyway, he's so darn healthy-lookin', I don't mind admittin, I was attracted right from the start. Most a the customers at the Blue Dragon was too drunk to pay any attention to my songs. And he liked it so much, he jumped up on a chair and yelled like a Indian, and put his fingers in his mouth and whistled like a steam engine. Bo come in one night when I was singin' "That Ole Black Magic." It's one a my best numbers. Everything was goin' fine till he brought up that subjeck. The resta the time, he don't even know I exist. But all he wants is a girl to throw his arms around and hug and kiss, that's all.
I dunno why I don't go off to Montana and marry Bo.
