*it was december 12, 1977 a few weeks before Bjorn and Agnetha had divorced*

*in the studio*

Bjorn-Benny can't I go home, it's Christmas I've got to help with dinner

Benny-Fine! go

Bjorn-thanks

*bjorn leaves*

*a short time later Agnetha shows up*

Agnetha-Anyone here?

Benny-in here

Agnetha-hey

Benny-Agnetha it's Christmas eve what the hell are you doing here

Agnetha-Christian left his toy train here and begged that I came back to get it, what are you doing here so late? and on Christmas none the less

Benny-writing a song, for the 1979 album

Agnetha-may i hear it?

Benny-now this is just a little bit

Agnetha-okay

Benny- "Put on your white sombrero

Saddle your horse my dear

And ride off into the sunset

You'd better go" that's all I got

Agnetha- *sings*"For there is no

Place for you here

Like an old fashioned hero"

Benny-what was that Agnetha

Agnetha-nothing

Benny- I think that's the next line, sing it again

Agnetha-*sings* "For there is no

Place for you here

Like an old fashioned hero"

Benny-that works, then the next part should be*sings* "You stand before me

You think our life is a movie

My world is real

I live and feel

And I can do, without you"

Agnetha-that is just crazy enough that it works

Benny-so it goes *sings* "Put on your white sombrero

Saddle your horse my dear

And ride off into the sunset

You'd better go

For there is no

Place for you here

Like an old fashioned hero

You stand before me

You think our life is a movie

My world is real

I live and feel

And I can do, without you" Agnetha you genius genius girl come here I want to hug you, you gave me the best Christmas gift ever

Agnetha-found it

Benny-what

Agnetha-Christian's toy train

Benny-oh okay

Benny-look it's late why don't you lock up and come home with me, the kids want to see you, they miss you besides it's Christmas eve

Benny-no way I'm in songwriting mode

Agnetha-Benny come on you can write the rest of the song with Bjorn in the basement

Benny-Bjorn's there???

Agnetha-yeah who do you think are watching the kids? Bjorn and Frida

Benny-okay coming I'll be right out

Agnetha-thought so

they arrive to Agnetha's and walk inside, Benny shouts

"Bjorn your wife is a genius"

Bjorn walks out of the kitchen and says

"why? what'd she do now?"

"i said she was a genius, i never said she did anything wrong"

"oh well what'd she do"

"she helped me write some lyrics that are in my opinion really good"

"may i hear them?"

Benny begins singing

"Put on your white sombrero

Saddle your horse my dear

And ride off into the sunset

You'd better go

For there is no

Place for you here

Like an old fashioned hero

You stand before me

You think our life is a movie

My world is real

I live and feel

And I can do, without you"

Bjorn replies

"well i'll see what we can do, no promises though that it'll make it onto the album"

"lets get started"

Frida calls out

"suppers ready"

Benny replies

"after dinner, that's when we can work on it"

Bjorn replies

"sounds good"

and they walk into the kitchen
