1:23:02
- Must be one of your city giris.
- She lives on the other side of Beulah.
1:23:07
I've known her since
about the first grade.
1:23:11
Funny thing. I always used to think
she was kinda clunky.
1:23:15
Till I met some of those city giris.
You can have 'em.
1:23:22
Gee, Dig.
You liked the city, didn't you?
1:23:26
Well, it's like Pa always says.
The city is all right for city folks.
1:23:30
Second night I was there,
I wished I was back in Beulah.
1:23:35
Why?
1:23:37
I was walking along the streets
1:23:39
and all these people were rushing by me.
1:23:42
And they looked like... like ants.
1:23:45
I could no more talk to one of them
than I could talk to an ant.
1:23:52
Well, it's great you're home.
1:23:56
I guess you'll be wanting your job back,
driving the truck.
1:24:00
No, I got a good offer to work
down at the sawmill.
1:24:03
So the job's still yours.
1:24:06
Gee, thanks!
1:24:09
Well, we'd better be getting
the rest of that stuff up here.
1:24:14
I remember, the night before I left...
1:24:18
I was talking to Pa about wanting to see
city lights and the gals and all.
1:24:23
You know what he said to me?
1:24:28
Pa said, "'Mid pleasures and palaces,
1:24:32
wherever you may roam,
1:24:34
be it ever so humble,
there's no place like home."
1:24:38
- He sang it?
- No, he said it.
1:24:42
He made it right up.
1:24:46
You know, Gil, if Pa had felt like it,
he would have made a great poet.
1:24:52
Yeah.
