[00:10.76]Everyone considered him the coward of the county
[00:17.16]He'd never stood one single time
[00:20.19]To prove the county wrong
[00:23.61]His mama named him Tommy
[00:26.57]But folks just called him "Yellow"
[00:30.67]Something always told me
[00:32.98]They were reading Tommy wrong
[00:37.26]He was only ten years old
[00:39.82]When his daddy died in prison
[00:43.87]I looked after Tommy
[00:46.18]'Cause he was my brother's son
[00:50.48]I still recall the final words my brother said to Tommy
[00:56.93]Son my life is over, but yours has just begun
[01:03.70]Promise me, son
[01:06.15]Not to do the things I've done
[01:09.10]Walk away from trouble if you can
[01:14.24]It won't mean you're weak
[01:16.52]If you turn the other cheek
[01:19.34]I hope you're old enough to understand
[01:24.23]Son, you don't have to fight to be a man"
[01:29.95]There's someone for everyone
[01:32.48]And Tommy's love was Becky
[01:36.62]In her arms, he didn't have to prove he was a man
[01:41.91]One day while he was working
[01:45.71]The Gatlin boys came calling
[01:49.56]They took turns at Becky
[01:52.39]And there was three of them
[01:56.17]Tommy opened up the door
[01:59.20]And saw his Becky crying
[02:02.76]The torn dress, the shattered look
[02:05.60]Was more than he could stand
[02:09.30]He reached above the fireplace
[02:11.58]And took down his daddy's picture
[02:15.64]As his tears fell on his daddy's face
[02:18.60]He heard these words again
[02:22.41]Promise me, son
[02:24.56]Not to do the things I've done
[02:27.63]Walk away from trouble if you can
[02:32.52]Now, it won't mean you're weak
[02:35.25]If you turn the other cheek
[02:37.76]I hope you're old enough to understand
[02:43.50]Son, you don't have to fight to be a man"
[02:48.67]The Gatlin boys just laughed at him
[02:51.24]When he walked into the barroom
[02:55.11]One of them got up
[02:57.17]And met him half way 'cross the floor
[03:01.48]When Tommy turned around they said
[03:04.30]Hey look! Old Yeller's leaving
[03:08.75]But you could've heard a pin drop
[03:10.86]When Tommy stopped and locked the door
[03:14.99]Twenty years of crawling
[03:17.25]Was bottled up inside him
[03:21.39]He wasn't holding nothing back
[03:24.17]He let 'em have it all
[03:27.62]When Tommy left the barroom
[03:30.60]Not a Gatlin boy was standing
[03:34.18]He said, "This one's for Becky
[03:36.87]As he watched the last one fall
[03:38.78]And I heard him say
[03:40.66]I promised you, Dad
[03:42.69]Not to do the things you've done
[03:46.13]I walk away from trouble when I can
[03:50.95]Now please don't think I'm weak
[03:53.13]I didn't turn the other cheek
[03:56.33]And papa, I sure hope you understand
[04:01.00]Sometimes you gotta fight when you're a man"
[04:06.79]Everyone considered him the coward of the county
