Carrying the Banner - Newsies Company

Lyrics by:Alan Menken/Jack Feldman

Hey that's my cigar

You'll steal another

Hey look it's bath time at the zoo

I thought that I'd suprise my mother

If you could find her

Who asked you

From Bottle Alley to the harbor

There's easy pickings guaranteed

Try any banker bum or barber

They almost all knows how to read

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

Ain't it a fine life

Carryin' the banner through it all

A mighty fine life

Carryin' 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

Carryin' the banner home-free all

Hey Crutchie what your leg say gonna rain

No rain oh ho partly cloudy clear by evenin'

Ha and the limp sells 50 papes a week all by itself

I don't need a limp to sell papes I've got personality

It takes a smile that spreads like butter

The kind that turns a lady's head

It takes an orphan with a stutter

Who's also blind

And mute

And dead

Summer stinks and winter's freezing

When you works outdoors

Start out sweating end up sneezing

In between it pours

Still it's a fine life

Carryin' the banner

Still it's a fine life

Carryin' the banner

A bunch of big shots

Tossin' out a freebie to the big shots

Tossin' out a freebie

Hey what's the hold up

Waitin' makes me antsy

I likes living chancey

Harlem to Delancey

What a fine life

Carryin' the banner through the

Blessed children

Though you wander lost and depraved

Jesus loves you

You shall be saved

Curdled just give me half a cup

Coffee something to wake me up

Concrete donuts I gotta find an angle

Sprinkled with mold it's gettin' bad out there

Homemade papers is all I got it's 88 degrees

Biscuits Jack says to change my spot wish

I could catch a breeze

Just two

All I can catch you

Years old

If I hate the headlines

I'll make up a headline

And I'll say anything I hafta

'Cause at two for a penny

If I take too many

Weasel just makes me eat 'em afta

Got a feelin' 'bout the headline I do too

So it must be true

Papes is gonna sell like we was givin' 'em away

What a did I think so dozy bala

Is no back pussy cat

Sell a make a pussy cat

Don't wanna dought a next tradition

It was a hundred dowra word

How 'bout a crooked politician

Ya nitwit that ain't news no more

Uptown to Grand Central Station

Down to City Hall

We improves our circulation

Walking till we fall

But we'll be out there

Carrying the banner man to man

We're always out there

Soakin' every sucker that we can

See the headline

Newsies on a mission

Kill the competition

Sell the next edition

We'll be out there carryin' the banner

See us out there carryin' the banner

Always out there carryin' the banner

We'll all be out there carryin' 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 carryin' the banner

See us out there carryin' the banner

Always out there carryin' the banner

Ah ah ah go
