Jack Mercer Quotes:

[pumping a camel full of water]
Popeye: Boy, you eat up an awful lot of gas for only a two-cylinder!


Popeye: [singing] I'm Popeye the Sailor Man / Popeye the Sailor Man / I'm strong to the finich, cause I eats me spinach / I'm Popeye the Sailor Man!

I'm Popeye the Sailor Man / Popeye the Sailor Man / I'm strong to the finich, cause I eats me spinach / I'm Popeye the Swab-Wailor Man!
