An emphatic American colloquial negative — a more colorful version of 'no way' or 'absolutely not.' The 'siree' is a folksy intensifier derived from 'sir,' and 'Bob' is a genericized name added for rhyme and rhythm. Used to stress total refusal or disagreement, often with humor or mock severity. Most common in rural or Southern American speech.
'Are you going skydiving with them?' 'No siree Bob — you won't catch me jumping out of a perfectly good airplane.'
