Quotes 

• Tom Dover , Dick Dover , Larry Dover : [singing]  Daniel Boone was a big dang bird. Yes, a really big bird. But he didn't know that his disguise was pretty absurd.

  Daniel Boone : QUIET! You dadgum idiots. This is a dang good disguise. Heh heh heh, that old squirrel will think I'm just a big woodpecker. I'll peck down this tree right in front of her.

  Slappy Squirrel : Ah, there's no rest for the elderly. Hey! Are you Daniel Boone?

  Daniel Boone : Shoot, no. I'm a big woodpecker.

  Slappy Squirrel : Get out of here with that woodpecker thing, there. You're Boone!

  Daniel Boone : No, I ain't. My daddy was a big woodpecker and his daddy before him. Can't you see I'm-a peckin' at your tree for bugs and such?

  Slappy Squirrel : I guess you really are a big woodpecker.

  Daniel Boone : Dang straight.

  Slappy Squirrel : Then here, I made you some woodpecker lunch.

  [reveals a plate full of rotting dead insects] 

  Daniel Boone : That's... right neighborly of you, ma'am.

  Slappy Squirrel : Yeah, there's nothin' like dead bugs mixed with manure and served with a big piece of rotten bark, eh woody?

  [Daniel runs off gagging] 

  Tom Dover , Dick Dover , Larry Dover : [singing]  Daniel Boone was a great big guy. Yes, a big sick guy. He lost his lunch all over the trees and sky.

  Slappy Squirrel : That's nice singin'. They remind me of "Up With People".

• Tom Dover , Dick Dover , Larry Dover : [singing]  Daniel Boone was a great big jerk. Yes, a stupid jerk. He had another dumb plan that more than likely wouldn't work.

  Daniel Boone : That ties it! You boys are fired! Come on down from there and get!

  Tom Dover : Hey, what's the big idea? You can't just fire us!

  Dick Dover : Yeah, who do you think you are? Hey, we got rights, you know! Wait a second!

  Larry Dover : We have a contract!

  Tom Dover : Our agent said two weeks work.

  Tom Dover , Dick Dover , Larry Dover : [All arguing at once] 

  Daniel Boone : I said get! I'm gonna blow this here tree and that old squirrel sky-high! And I don't need no dang smart-aleck chorus! If'n I can't have that tree, then nobody's gonna have it.

  [cackles] 

  Daniel Boone : Now there's gonna be a big hole in the ground. I could make it into a root cellar or a... root cellar.
