Blow the Man Down
composed by Traditional

Popeye is sitting outside Olive's lunchroom at the airport, distraught. She's closed the business to fly away with an aviator, Bluto. But it's hardly what she expected; he has her painting his plane, while it's flying; when she says she's rather go back to Popeye, he tries to throw her off the plane. Popeye sees this, and takes off in a plane, just in time to help her out. The boys get into a dogfight, and Bluto manages to demolish Popeye's plane. As Popeye is falling, he grabs a duck and feeds the duck spinach. The duck manages to fly him up to Bluto's plane, Popeye has some spinach of his own, and he teaches Bluto a lesson. Popeye picks up Olive and crashes the plane into the diner, opening it (and providing a new counter). Some sources incorectly list this short's title as "I Never Changes my Attitude". Popeye, I'm plane crazy about aviators. I'm flying away with one. Good-bye, Olive Oyl. Oh, my prettiest engagement. Hurry up! There's plenty more to do. Make it snappy. Ah, you're no help at all. I wanna go back to Popeye! Okay, you go back. End of the line. Come on, give up. Hey, what's that? Olive's voice. Where is that? Whoa! What to do? Where to go? What'll I get. How'll I do that? Come on, wing, we're going places. That'll do it. Signals, 24, 46... up! We're off! Get off! Take this. I'll be right back. Popeye! Oh, what a predicament! Stroke! Hey, ya big balooka. What's the big idea? You don't know how to treat a lady? Who's a balooka? You are. Come out here and I'll smack ya. I'm coming out. Don't worry. Whoa. Hey watch this. Hey, this is terrible. This is terrible. I think I need some more muscle-age on the fuselage. Brother, you're headed for the last crack up. Hey, I doesn't like your altitude. Oh, you don't like it, hey? No. Hey, I think something's wrong here. What's the matter? How do you stop this thing? I'll grind ya right up. I don't like these Sunday drivers. Whoa! Hey what happened? Where's the rest of this thing? Better get more weights on here. Hey, look out below. Hey, spread your wings there, young fella. Oh boy, this is ducky. Thanks for the lift, birdie. Out you go. Wait a minute here. Hey, cut it out. Contact. I guess I'll save his life for him. Help! Oh, Popeye, you've saved my life. Oh, say nothing of it, Olive. Popeye, you're the most wonderfullest aviator of all. I am what I am and that's all what I am. I'm Popeye the Sailor Man.

To impress Olive, Bluto and Popeye try to convince an Army recruiter to sign him up. Ah look at you. Give that guy the air. Oh yeah, I likes the air, and I'm going along, see? Oh yeah, I'm going out with her, see? Oh, is that so? Well I asked her first. Besides that, two's company and you're a crowd. Oop, I guess she's going with herself. I'm crazy about a man in a uniform. Would you like me if I wore a uniform? Why, I'd just love you. In the army! I want to join up. I've only got room for one, and he's got to be good. That's me, brother. Yeah, that's me. Take a look at this, just to give you an idea about what a big star I was in the movies. One of those big shots, you know. I guess it's kind of quiet now. It's kind of quiet around here, don't ya think? Well I'll make it a little noisy for you. What do you got there? Sissysparilla? Keep your eye on this. Here's some more. I can do that with a trick gun myself. Not bad. Ah, that's nothin'. Get a load of this, colonel. I played a dual role in this picture. Ha ha ha haha. Very good. If you think that's good, look at this. That's the horse. Ha ha ha ha. Wise men weep. Here's the horseplay I was in once. Ha ha haha. That's great. Why, I'm better than that one-eyed runt, and this will prove it. Another one of my big scenes here. Hey, come back with me girl. You can't take a ride and get away with it. Come up here and fight like a man. Hey, watch where you're going. Heavy traffic here. Ha ha ha ha. How do you like that? Yeah, but this is what followed. Let me see. Now this is where I do my stuff. Just what I need. Let me at him. Oh yeah? Hey, let me down. Lamb you down? I'll lamb you down. Hold onto your seat. I win, you lose. Ha ha ha ha. You're the man we want. Thanks your honor.
