"Well, I still say I've got a right to decide what I ride and for who. I'm not your slave anymore."

I remember my daddy got real quiet. If I just hadn't added that last bit, maybe he would have taken the time to talk more to me. Now his mind closed. "Makes no difference about that. I'm still your daddy, and you're still a boy with a boy's judgment. I say no about a thing, then it's finished."

The young manhood in me got my back up. "Well, you didn't tell that man from Alabama anything about you being my daddy, just that I was 'your boy'! Figure that says more than anything else! Now, I want to ride that stallion!"
