It is in the bar with Loyd but Jack is giving the monlogue. Here, I just looked it up, page 240, "Few men ever return from the fabled Wagon, but those who do come with a fearful tale to tell.  When you jump on, it seems like the brightest, cleanest Wagon you ever saw, with ten foot wheels to keep the bed of it high out of the gutter where all the drunks are laying around with their brown bags and their Thunderbird and their Granddad Flash's Popskull Bourbon.  You're away from all the people who throw you nasty looks and tell you to clean up your act or go put it on in another town.  From the gutter, that's the finest-lookin Wagon you ever saw, Lloyd my boy.  All hung with bunting and a brass band in fron and three majorettes to each side, twirling their batons and flashing their panties at you.  Man, you got to get on that Wagon and away from the juicers that are strainning canned heat and smelling their own puke to get high again and poking along the gutter for butts with half an inch left below the filter........ So you climb up and ain't you glad to be there. My God yes. ....... Then you start to see things, LLoydy my boy. Things you missed from the gutter. Like how the floor of the wagon is nothing but straight pine boards... no cushions and in fact they are nothing but pews with a songbook every five feet or so. Like how all the people sitting in the pews on the Wagon are these flat chested el birdos in loong dresses around the collar and their hair pulled back into buns until it's so tight you can almost hear it screaming.... That's when you realize what th4e Wagon reallly is, Lloyd. It's a church with bars on the windows, a church for women and a prison for you"  -whewh- man, that was longer than I thought!  It was awesome to type, I can feel the King flowing through me!  What a rush, now I need a drink- haha
