I've never heard this one, and it looks like no-one else can figure it
out. Spencer Tracy usually played scrappy little tough good guys,
unlike Cagney's scrappy little tough bad guys. What someone could
make of his movies to turn into a slang phrase, I couldn't say. Would
a little more context help us?
