Joe Darsie:
Did you ever go on the bum?
Bill Smith:
Once I did it.
Joe Darsie:
Yeah? How'd you do?
Bill Smith:
[looking at a cigarette in his hand]
Well, I got a cigarette.
Joe Darsie:
You could do it if you wanted to. You could be a swell bum.
Bill Smith:
I'm the type?
Joe Darsie:
It's like everything else. All you got to do is make up your mind and stick to it. Then you're it. Whatever you pick out, you can't miss.
Bill Smith:
To be a bum, you got to have willpower.
Joe Darsie:
[pointing to wealthy man in a limousine]
Oh, I ain't kidding, mister. Thirty years ago, I made up my mind and I done all right, too. Look. What has he got on me?
Bill Smith:
A limousine.
Joe Darsie:
Mmhmm, and stomach ulcers.
Bill Smith:
There may be something in what you say. Well, good luck.
Joe Darsie:
[pulling out roll of bills and hands one out]
Wait a minute, brother. Could you use a buck?
Bill Smith:
You save your money, mister. Times ain't that tough.
Joe Darsie:
No? Well, they could be.
Bill Smith:
[turning to leave]
Looks as though they will be. So long.
Joe Darsie:
[watching Joe go]
It's too bad. He could be a swell bum if he only had the willpower.
