Right Hand Man (Explicit) - Lin-Manuel Miranda/Leslie Odom Jr./Original Broadway Cast of Hamilton

Lyrics by:Arthur Sullivan/Lin-Manuel Miranda/W.S. Gilbert

Composed by:Lin-Manuel Miranda

British Admiral Howe's got troops on the water

Thirty-two thousand troops in New York harbor

Thirty-two thousand troops in New York harbor

When they surround our troops

They surround our troops

When they surround our troops

As a kid in the Caribbean I wished for a war

I knew that I was poor

I knew it was the only way to

Rise up

If they tell my story

I am either gonna die

On the battlefield in glory or

Rise up

I will fight for this land

But there's only one man

Who can give us a command so we can

Rise up

Understand it's the only way to

Rise up rise up

Here he comes

Here comes the general

Ladies and gentlemen

Here comes the general

The moment you've been waiting for

Here comes the general

The pride of Mount Vernon

Here comes the general

George Washington

We are outgunned what

Outmanned what

Outnumbered

Outplanned buck buck buck buck buck

We gotta make an all out stand

Ayo I'm gonna need a right-hand man

Buck buck buck buck buck

Check it

Can I be real a second

For just a millisecond

Let down my guard and

Tell the people how I feel a second

Now I'm the model

Of a modern major general

The venerated Virginian

Veteran whose men are all

Lining up to put me up on a pedestal

Writin' letters to relatives

Embellishin' my elegance and eloquence

But the elephant is in the room

The truth is in ya face when

Ya hear the British cannons go

Boom

Any hope of success is fleeting

How can I keep leading when the people I'm

Leading keep retreating

We put a stop to the bleeding

As the British take Brooklyn

Knight takes rook but look

We are outgunned what

Outmanned what

Outnumbered

Outplanned buck buck buck buck buck

We gotta make an all out stand

Ayo I'm gonna need a right-hand man

Buck buck buck buck buck

Incoming

They're battering down the

Battery check the damages

Rah

We gotta stop 'em and rob

'Em of their advantages

Rah

Let's take a stand with

The stamina God has granted us

Hamilton won't abandon ship

Yo let's steal their cannons

Shh-boom boom

Goes the cannon watch

The blood and the s**t spray and

Boom

Goes the cannon

We're abandonin' Kips Bay and

Boom

There's another ship and

Boom

We just lost the southern tip and

Boom

We gotta run to Harlem quick

We can't afford another slip

Guns and horses giddyup

I decide to divvy up

My forces they're skittish

As the British cut the city up

This close to giving up

Facing mad scrutiny

I scream in the face of this mass mutiny

Are these the men with

Which I am to defend America

We ride at midnight

Manhattan in the distance

I cannot be everywhere at once people

I'm in dire need of assistance

Your excellency sir

Who are you

Aaron burr sir

Permission to state my case

As you were

Sir

I was a captain under general Montgomery

Until he caught a bullet in the neck in Quebec

And well in summary

I think that I could be of some assistance

I admire how you keep firing on the British

From a distance

Huh

I have some questions

A couple of suggestions on how

To fight instead of fleeing west

Yes

Your excellency you wanted to see me

Hamilton come in have you met burr

Yes sir

We keep meeting

As I was saying sir I look forward

To seeing your strategy play out

Burr

Sir

Close the door on your way out

Have I done something wrong sir

On the contrary

I called you here because

Our odds are beyond scary

Your reputation precedes you

But I have to laugh

Sir

Hamilton how come no one

Can get you on their staff

Sir

Don't get me wrong

You're a young man of great renown

I know you stole British

Cannons when we were still downtown

Nathaniel Green and Henry

Knox wanted to hire you

To be their Secretary

I don't think so

And why're you upset

I'm not

It's alright you want to fight

You've got a hunger

I was just like you when I was younger

Head full of fantasies

Of dyin' like a martyr

Yes

Dying is easy young man

Living is harder

Why are you telling me this

I'm being honest

I'm working with a third

Of what our Congress has promised

We are a powder keg about to explode

I need someone like you

To lighten the load so

I am not throwin' away my shot

I am not throwin' away my shot

Ayo I'm just like my country

I'm young scrappy and hungry

I am not throwing away my shot

Son

We are outgunned outmanned

You need all the help you can get

I have some friends Laurens Mulligan

Marquis de Lafayette okay what else

Outnumbered outplanned

We'll need some spies on the inside

Some King's men who might let some things slide

I'll write to Congress and tell 'em we

Need supplies you rally the guys

Master the element of surprise

Boom I'll rise above my station

Organize your information

'Til we rise to the occasion of our

New nation sir

Here comes the general

Rise up

What

Here comes the general

Rise up

What

Here comes the general

Rise up

What

Here comes the general

What

And his right hand man

Boom
