- Where's Ma?
- She drove the wagon to Doc Wilson's.
1:01:08
Your ma's been searching for you.
She ain't done nothing else.
1:01:12
She'll be mighty glad you're home.
1:01:16
Jody, I'd be proud to know
where you been.
1:01:19
I been on the river.
1:01:23
I aimed to go to Boston.
1:01:26
I see.
1:01:28
Were you hungry?
1:01:31
I didn't get nothing to eat
for three days.
1:01:35
I'm sorry you had to learn it
that way.
1:01:38
Now you know Old Starvation. He's got
a face meaner than Old Slewfoot.
1:01:44
It's fearful!
1:01:49
Sit, boy.
1:01:56
You figured I went back on you.
1:01:59
That's why you runned away.
1:02:02
Son, there's a thing every man's got
to know. Maybe you know it already.
1:02:08
It wasn't only me. Wasn't only your
yearling deer having to be destroyed.
1:02:14
- Boy, life goes back on you.
- Yes, sir. I reckon.
1:02:20
You've seen how things go
in the world of men.
1:02:23
Every man wants life
to be a fine thing and easy.
1:02:28
Well, it is fine, son, powerful fine.
But it ain't easy.
1:02:34
I wanted life to be easy for you.
Easier than it was for me.
1:02:39
A man's heart aches seeing his
young'uns face the world.
1:02:43
IKnowing they got to get their insides
tore out the way his was tore.
1:02:48
I wanted to spare you
as long as I could.
1:02:51
I wanted you to be with your yearling.
I knowed the lonesomeness be easier.
1:02:57
But every man's lonesome.
