“You can have a lot of fun in a New York minute.
But there's some things you can't do inside those city limits.
Ain't no closing time, ain't no cover charge.
Just country boys and girls gettin' down on the farm.”

“When you leave New York you ain't going anywhere.”

“It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none.”

“It ain't like midnight and cigarette smoke.
It ain't like watered down whiskey and coke.
I guess some things just don't mix like you hope.
Like me and you.
And diamond rings and old barstools.”

“If it ain't fun don't do it.”

“Cause I was born lonely down by the riverside
Learned to spin fortune wheels, and throw dice
And I was just thirteen when I had to leave home
Knew I couldn't stick around, I had to roam
Ain't good looking, but you know I ain't shy
Ain't afraid to look it girl, hear me out
So if you need some lovin, and you need it right away
Take a little time out, and maybe I'll stay.”

“the magic is inside you. there ain't no crystal ball”

“The thing is nowadays, you'll have 20 men working, yet 60 men telling them 'You can't do that, you ain't got a tin hat on'.”

“Inside of a ring or out, ain't nothing wrong with going down. It's staying down that's wrong.”

“It ain't so much the things we don't know that get us into trouble, it's the things we do know that just ain't so.”
