Pete Smith: Narrator
Quotes
-
Narrator : Hi, ho! Cash customers. Hi, ho. Here we are way out west in the land of horse feathers and bow legs; where men are men and women think a powder puff is something that comes from the end of a gun.
-
Narrator : The occasion is a quiet Sunday afternoon gathering; where the cowboy attempts to break the horse's spirit and the horse, by way of appreciation, attempts to break the cowboy's neck. The spectators wish them both luck.
-
Narrator : This is a Bronco. In other words, a wild animal with a leg on each corner, a load of dynamite in each hoof, and a back that rocks like a banana peel on a stormy ocean.
-
Narrator : That horse is just as happy as a fly in a Greek restaurant. Really, he's having lots of fun. Look at that grace.
-
Narrator : This is great for the hips, ladies. Especially the horse's hips. It's as simple as rolling off a log, from the top of the Chrysler building.
-
Narrator : This buckaroo knows his ponies. Breaking a wild horse, as you now appreciate, is as safe as flying an aeroplane with one wing.
-
Narrator : These cowboys follow the rodeos from town to town in an effort to win some prize money and, incidentally, to break a few bones. Some of them win prize money.
-
Narrator : Bulldogging at a rodeo is as popular as a dill pickle at a Sunday school picnic.
-
Narrator : A cowboy would rather throw a bull than eat beans with his knife.
-
Narrator : This bull must have had TNT for breakfast. Look out, cowboy!
-
Narrator : Don't quarrel, little bull. Don't cry. You'll be a nice hand bag, by and by.
