Quotes from
Daffy Duck:
[watching Porky laughing hysterically] Ho ho and ha ha, eh? I'll ho ho and ha ha you, fat friar...
[runs offscreen and returns with a long stick]
Daffy Duck: ...with my trusty quarterstaff!
[Aside, to audience]
Daffy Duck: Actually, it's a buck-and-a-quarter quarterstaff, but I'm not telling him that.
Daffy Duck: [using his quarterstaff] Ho! Ha ha! Guard! Turn! Parry! Dodge! Spin! Ha! Thrust!

Daffy Duck: Got it.
[Pulls bill down again]

Facts about
Daffy's song is set to the tune of the 17th-century ballad "Come Lasses and Lads"; his lyrics are very loosely based on the first verse:Come, Lasses and Lads, get leave of your Dads,And away to the Maypole hie,For ev'ry fair has a sweetheart thereAnd the fiddler's standing by.For Willy shall dance with Jane,And Johnny has got his Joan,To trip it, trip it, trip it, trip itTrip it up and down,To trip it, trip it, trip it, trip itTrip it up and down.
At one point Porky Pig (in the character of Friar Tuck) is walking in the forest singing the first verse of "The Ballad of Barbara Allen".
