But this...this isn't the same!

Just to satisfy a personal grudge!

If folks came to think of me

as a coward...

I could never look them

in the eye again.

Or you either.

But that's just pride!

I don't know what you call it...

...but it's something in the feelings

of a man.

Down deep inside.

Something a man can't go back on.

If somebody said I was a thief,

I couldn't let them go on saying it!

It wouldn't matter what other people

thought...

...but I'd have to know inside of me...

...that I thought enough of my own

honesty to fight for it!

Then it will be like this always!

When will it ever end?

There will always be killing to do until

this country ain't a meeting place...

...for men like Trampas.

Then think of us!

You and me...our life together!

That's what I am thinking of!

Your life has always been your own...

...but now it isn't!

You've given it to me!

Don't take it away!

When I think of tomorrow...

...of you and me...

...and of...

If you do this...

...there will be no tomorrow

for you and me.

Don't go!

Don't go!

For my sake, please!

It's you, your life!

I can't let you!

Give me room!

Whiskey.

Sundown.

Here he comes now!

Let's go!

Hello, boss.

Hello, boys.

Well, guess I'll go to the Post Office.

You ain't finished your last drink yet,

Greasy!

He's got him!

He's dead as a cold mackerel!

- The key, Nebrasky.

- Here it is.

It's all over!

You can come out now, gents!

Thank heavens, it wasn't you!

I love you so!
