[reporters] 

Where'd you come from? 

[billy (as roxie)] 

Mississippi 

[reporters] 

And your parents? 

[billy (as roxie)] 

Very wealthy. 

[reporters] 

Where are they now? 

[billy (as roxie)] 

Six feet under. 

[billy] 

But she was granted one more start 

[billy (as roxie)] 

The convent of the sacred heart!

How old were you? 

[billy (as roxie)] 

Don't remember

Then what happened? 

[billy (as roxie)] 

I met amos 

And he stole my heart away 

Convinced me to elope one day 

[mary sunshine (spoken)] 

A convent girl! a run-away marriage! 

Oh, it's too terrible. you poor, poor dear.

From my bureau.

He had strength and she had none.
