Billy Joe confesses his love to the lovely Bobbi Lee only to cover his growing fear that he may, in fact, be homosexual. One night, at a barn dance, he gets a little drunk and rather than going with the hired whores[ZiYuantun.Com], gives into his desires and sexual relations with an unnamed man. The guilt causes him to run away, hide in the woods and eventually confess everything to Bobbi Lee who doesn't want to believe him only because she was enjoying the forbidden nature of their love. In the end, he cannot accept his sexuality nor can he hide behind Bobbi Lee and that's why he throws himself off the Tallahachee bridge. 译文(3): 比利·乔向可爱的波比·李坦白了他的爱，只是为了掩饰他越来越担心自己可能是同性{资源屯-ziyuantun.com}。一天晚上，在一次谷仓舞会上，他喝得有点醉，没有和雇佣的妓女一起去，而是屈服于自己的欲望和与一个未透露姓名的男人的性关系。这种内疚感导致他逃跑，躲在树林里，最终向波比·李坦白了一切，波比·李不想相信他，只是因为她享受着他们爱情的禁忌。最终，他无法接受自己的性取向，也无法躲在波比·李身后，这就是他从塔拉哈奇大桥上跳下的原因。
