Carrying The Banner

Newsies

[Race]
Hey!
That's my cigar!

[Albert]
You'll steal another!

[Specs]
Hey, look! It's bath time at the zoo

[Henry]
I thought that I'd surprise my mother

[Albert]
If you can find her

[Newsies]
Who asked you?!

[Race]
From bottle alley to the harbor
There's easy pickings guaranteed

[Finch]
Try any banker, bum, or barber
They almost all knows how to read

[Jack]
It's a crooked game we're playin'
One we'll never lose
Long as suckers don't mind payin'
Just to get bad news

[Newsies]
Ain't it a fine life!
Carrying the banner through it all
A mighty fine life!
Carrying the banner tough and tall
When the bell rings
We goes where we wishes
We's as free as fishes
Sure beats washing dishes
What a fine life
Carrying the banner home-free all!

[Finch]
Hey, Crutchie, what's your leg say, gonna rain?

[Crutchie]
Uhh, no rain
Ho-ho, partly cloudy clear by evenin'

[Race]
Ha! And the limp sells fifty papes a week, all by itself!

[Crutchie]
I don't need the limp to sell papes
I got personality
It takes a smile that spreads like butter
The kind that turns a lady's head

[Race]
It takes an orphan with a stutter

[Finch]
Who's also blind-

[Albert]
And mute-

[Elmer]
And dead!

[Crutchie, Buttons, Jo-Jo]
Summer stinks and winters freezing
When you works outdoors

[Jack, Tommy Boy, Crutchie, Buttons, Jo-Jo]
Start out sweatin
End up sneezin'
In between it pours!

[Newsies]
Still it's a fine life
Carrying the banner with me chums
Still it's a fine life
Carrying the banner with me chums
A bunch of big shots
Tossin' out a freebie to the bums
A bunch of big shots
Tossin' out a freebie

[Finch]
Hey! What's the hold up?
Waiting makes me antsy
I likes livin' chancey

[Newsies]
Harlem to delancey
What a fine life!
Carrying the banner through the-

[Nuns]
Blessed children
Though you wander lost and depraved
Jesus loves you
You shall be saved

[Race (Elmer)]
Curdled (Just give me half a cup)

[Nuns]
Blessed children

[Race (Henry)]
Coffee (Somethin' to wake me up)

[Race (Romeo]
Concrete donuts (I gotta find an angle)

[Race (Tommy Boy)]
Sprinkled with mold (It's gettin bad out there)

[Race (Mush)]
Homemade (Papers is all I got)

[Nuns]
Jesus loves you

[Specs]
It's 88 degrees

[Race (Jo-Jo)]
Biscuits (Jack says to change my spot)

[Sniper]
Wish I could catch a breeze

[Race (Finch)]
Just two (Maybe it's worth a shot)

[Race (Buttons)]
Years old (All I can catch is fleas)

[Jack]
If I hate the headline
I’ll make up a headline

[Jack and crutchie]
And I'll say anything I have'ta

[Jack, Crutchie, Race, and Romeo]
'Cause at two for a penny if I take too many
Weasel just makes me eat 'em afta'!

[Newsies group 1 & (Newsies group 2)]
Got a feelin' bout the headline!
(I do too, so it must be true)
I smells me a headline!
Papes are gonna sell like we was givin' them away!
(What a switch! Soon we'll all be rich)
Betcha dinner it's a doozy
'Bout a pistol-packin' floozy
(Don't know any better way to make a newsie's day)
Who knows how to make a newsie's day!

[Newsies]
You wanna move the next edition
Give us an earthquake or a war!

[Elmer]
How ‘bout a crooked politician?

[Newsies]
Yeah, nitwit, that ain’t news no more!
Uptown to grand central station
Down to city hall
We improves our circulation
Walking ‘till we fall

[Newsies group 1 & (Newsies group 2)]
But we'll be out there
(Got a feelin' 'bout the headline, I smells me a headline)
Carrying the banner man to man!
(Papes are gonna sell like we was givin' them away)
(Betcha dinner it's a doozy)
We're always out there
('Bout a pistol-packin' floozy)
Soakin' every sucker that we can!
(Don't know any better way to make a newsie's day!)
See the headline
(I was stakin' out the circus)
Newsies on a mission!
(And then someone said that Coney's really hot)
Kill the competition
(But when I got there)
Sell the next edition!
(There was Spot with all his cronies)
We'll be out there
(Heck, I'm gonna take what little dough I got and play with the ponies!)
Carrying the banner!
See us out there, carrying the banner!
(We at least deserves a headline for the hours that they work us)
Always out there, carrying the banner!
(Jeez, I bet if I just stayed a little longer at the circus)

[Newsies]
We’ll all be out there
Carrying the banner man to man!
We're always out there
Soakin' every sucker that we can!
Here's the headline
Newsies on a mission!
Kill the competition!
Sell the next edition!
We'll be out there
Carrying the banner!
See us out there
Carrying the banner!
Always out there
Carrying the banner!
Ahh, ahh, ahh, go!
