Quotes

Baretta: Can you believe that, me the ace cop, the street fox, and I'm gettin' obscene phone calls. Well pay no mind my dear, pump in a little more of this turkey and you'll feel like a spring chicken. (edit)
Baretta: My old man always said, 'You take could'a would'a and should'a in one hand and ten cents in the other you could buy yourself a couple a donuts. (edit)
Rooster: There's always trouble in the barnyard, that's why every farmer has a rooster in the barnyard. (edit)
Baretta: He's an itenerent musician, I found this little tie clasp up there. I ain't got no lead on him yet, don't worry about him, I'll find him. What I want to know from you is what is going on in the baby selling racket.
Rooster: I don't know nothin' about it brother man, I don't keep my ladies in that situation. I keep 'em tight and right, you dig. But every now and then I do hear about a chick be gettin' some hard times from time to time.
Baretta: Yeah
Rooster: And they can go from 5 to 10 g's if they okay. If they black, black babies don't pay, cuz white folks stay away. If they brown, you find the same thing goin' down, but if they yellow, you're a lucky fellow, makes a fuss.
Baretta: Oh yeah, you wanna keep your nose down and see if you can smell out one of these fillies that might be in some kind of trouble, one way or the other.
Rooster: Yeah, there better be some financial renumeration for that. I don't dig workin' out with one of those white chicks there, dig. (edit)
