  [en route to the train station, Frog's wagon breaks down] 

  Frog : Hey!

  Gene Autry : That's a fine way to meet the new boss. Come on, snap into it! Get that wagon fixed!

  Frog : Well, it took him two weeks to get here from England. It isn't going to hurt him to wait four or five minutes more.

• Gene Autry : Hi there, folks.

  Henry 'Windy' Wyndham : You're Gene Autry, the steward of the estate, I presume.

  Gene Autry : Well, the foreman, yes.

• Juan : Sing for us Señor Autry, huh?

  Gene Autry : Sure, I will. Boots and Saddles, boys!

  [singing] 

  Gene Autry : Take me back, To my boots and saddle, Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh ooh-ooh, Let me see that gen'ral store, Let me ride that range once more, Give me my boots and saddle...

• Gene Autry : Fine fellow, ol' Spud was.

  Henry 'Windy' Wyndham : Spud? You called him Spud?

  Gene Autry : Yeah, he had a weakness for potatoes. Besides, we all liked him.

• Spud - aka Edward, Earl of Grandby : Mr. Autry, will you accept my apology? I should have listened to you.

  Gene Autry : Ah, forget it. We all make mistakes. The big thing is to admit 'em.

• Gene Autry : Autry's the name, ma'am. Gene Autry.

• Gene Autry : [singing]  Ridin' the range all day, Champ's actin' strange all day, Guess that he knows my days are dreary, Ridin' the range all day, Ridin' my life away...

• Gene Autry : Maybe I could tame her by singing to her.

  [singing] 

  Gene Autry : You're as sweet as the red rose in June, dear, I love you, adore you, I do, Why each night through loveland we wander, sweetheart, Telling love stories anew...

• Gene Autry : Say, Miss, is your boss easy to get along with or is he an old crab?

• Bernice Allen : Oh, men are all alike. Make a girl think you like her and all you really want is just information on army contracts.

  Gene Autry : But, that isn't all I want. Say, I'd like to take you out tonight.

  Bernice Allen : You aren't teasing me?

  Gene Autry : Why, certainly not.

• Bernice Allen : Why didn't you tell me you knew who I was?

  Gene Autry : Why didn't you tell me who you were?

  Bernice Allen : That's beside the point. A gentleman wouldn't *do* what you did.

  Gene Autry : A lady wouldn't do what you did.

• Gene Autry : [singing]  Come gather all around me, You boys that want a wife, You'd better take my warning, You'll thank me all your life, My brother was a bachelor, And he wished he was again, He'd never give up that single bliss, To wear a ball and chain, Oh, why did he get married? Why did he don this neck yoke? If he talks back, She'll give him a smack, And he's liable to get his neck broke, Yo-da-lay-e-ay, Lay-de-oo, Lay-eee... .

• Gene Autry : [singing]  Oh, Solomon didn't have a thousand wives, A thousand wives had him...
