“Ah, so you're gonna live in Ok-la-ho-ma, eh Lucy? How I envy you....” – Jerry, The Awful Truth ... Movie Quotes Database

Jerry

Ah, so you're gonna live in Ok-la-ho-ma, eh Lucy? How I envy you. Ever since I was a small boy, that name has been filled with magic for me. Ok-la-ho-ma!

Daniel

We're gonna live right in Oklahoma City!

Jerry

Not Oklahoma City itself? Lucy, you lucky girl! No more running around to nightspots. No more prowling around in New York shops. I shall think of you every time a new show opens and say to myself, 'She's well out of it.'

Daniel

New York's all right for a visit but I wouldn't want to live here.

Lucy

I know I'll enjoy Oklahoma City.

Jerry

Well, of course. And if it should get dull, you can always go over to Tul-sa for the weekend. I think a big change like that does one good, don't you?

Jerry I just met her. Lucy I guess it was easier to her to change her name than for her whole family to change theirs. Daniel That'd go great out West. Lucy It seemed to go pretty well with the cowboy here. Jerry What do you see in this fellow? Lucy Oh, none of your business. Jerry Not that I care, but uh, what kind of mind could he have that would impress you, huh? Lucy You might be surprised. You could take a few lessons and profit nicely. Jerry You just thought that if I'd stay up there, you'd show me exactly how innocent a night in the country could be, didn't you? Lucy Are you still harping on that same old string? Well, it's a matter of complete indifference to me whether you go or stay. I was just trying to make it easier for you, that's all.
