The Docks of New York Page #2

"I s'pose you've forgot

about gettin' married, too."

"Chief, last night's over.

Today's another day!"

"Mebbe for you, but not for me.

That sock in the jaw

will cost you your job!"

"One ship's as good as another,

Chief. Any port in a storm!"

"Get out o' here - or my

husband will kill you!"

"Don't kid me!"

"Don't let Bill Roberts stand

between you an' me - you know

he ain't comin' back!"

"You're a dirty liar!

He is comin' back!"

"Rustle that stretcher -

this guy's in bad shape!"

"You won't get nowhere

keepin' your mouth shut!"

"I warned you! Now beat it

- while you got time!"

"I'm her husband."

"She didn't shoot him.

The kid wouldn't hurt a fly!"

"I shot him, an' nobody else

is goin' to get the credit for it."

"I'm his wife. He gave me

the air once too often!"

"Why didn't you say so before?"

"I didn't care - before."

"I hope you have better luck

than me - - but I doubt it."

"I didn't figure on your

comin' back to help me."

"You didn't need my help, Baby."

"Goin' away - Bill?"

"Sorry, Baby. Sailin' in an hour -

- I never missed a ship in my life."

"Could you give me a minute

to - to get used to it, Bill?"

"I never even thanked you

for pullin' me out o' the water."

"That's all right!"

"An' I never thanked you for them

swell clothes you bought me."

"That's all right, too."

"An' I guess you expect me

to thank you for bein' decent

enough to make me your wife."

"Now listen, kid - you can't

get me sore! I never did

a decent thing in my life."

"I've always been like this.

There ain't no power on earth

that could ever keep me ashore!"

"Why get serious about it, anyway?

You knew all I had was one night ashore -

you knew I was just a dirty stoker!"

"You ain't so bad, Bill Roberts!"

"But it would have been kind o'

funny if this had been on the level

- even for a couple o' months."

"Maybe if I ever stayed ashore

for as long as a couple o' months

I'd get to like it."

"Get a move on, Bill.

Time's up!"

"So long, Baby."

"Well - goodbye - Bill."

"Come on out o' this -

before you get into another mess!"

"I'll fix it for you, Bill.

You can't go to sea like this."

"What are you tryin' to do

- bring me more bad luck?"

"Superstitious, are you?"

"The nerve of that dame -

bawling me out after all

I done for her!"

"I could of told you before

that she was no good

- like all females!"

"Lucky for you I happened along!

If I hadn't pried you loose,

she'd of stuck like a barnacle!"

"Buck into it, you two!

I want steam, not talk!"

"I'll have you put in

"Where's my wife?"

"In jail, where she belongs."

"What's she in jail for?"

"Why don't you go to the
