I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow.

Days of wine and roses laugh and run away, like a child at play.

I'm a working stiff, baby, just like everybody else.

James Bond is quite serious about his drinks and clothing and cigarettes and food and all that sort of thing. There is nothing wry or amused about James Bond.
