letra de carrying the banner - newsies original broadway cast
[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 that 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, spoken]
hey, crutchie, what’s your leg say, gonna rain?
[crutchie, spoken]
uhh, no rain…
ho-ho, partly cloudy clear by evenin’
[race, spoken]
ha! and the limp sells fifty papes a week, all by itself!
[crutchie, spoken]
i don’t need the limp to sell papes
i got personality
(sung)
it takes a smile that spreads like b-tter
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, b-ttons, jo-jo]
summer stinks and winter’s freezing
when you works outdoors
[jack, tommy boy, crutchie, b-ttons, 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 o’ 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 & nuns
curdled
just give me half a cup
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, specs]
jesus loves you
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, b-ttons]
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]
ya nitwit, that ain’t news no more!
uptown to grand central station
down to city hall
we improves our circulation
walking ‘til we fall
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
k!ll the compet-tion
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 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!
k!ll the compet-tion!
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!
