True Blue Cowboy (The Cash Brothers) - Plot & Excerpts
Mack’s brother Conway entered the bunkhouse and removed a bottled water from the fridge. “Thought you finished harvesting the pecans last week,” Porter said. “I’ve got a few acres left.” Conway nodded to Mack, juggling fruit. “What’s he up to?” “Merle Haggard is getting ready to run off and join the circus.” “Real funny.” Mack caught the pieces of fruit and glared at his brothers. If he wasn’t tied in knots over Just Beth he might challenge Porter to a scuffle after being called by his proper name. Grandma Ada had insisted that their mother name all her sons after country-and-western legends because she loved their music. Mack didn’t buy the story. No matter what any of his siblings thought, he believed his mother had been dropped on her head as a baby, leaving her judgment permanently impaired. He and his brother Willie Nelson had taken nicknames after they’d entered kindergarten, and the teasing led to playground fights and weekly trips to the principal’s office.
