Lyrics
Racetrack:
That's my cigar
Snipeshooter:
You'll steal anudder
Kid Blink:
Hey, bummers, we got work to do
Specs:
I thought that I'd suprise my muthder?
Snipeshooter:
If you could find her!
Several Newsies:
Hey! Who ast you??
Mush:
Try Bottle Alley or the harbor
Racetrack:
There's easy pickins guaranteed
Jack:
Try any banker, bum, or barber ...
Skittery:
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!
(Spoken)
Jack:
Hey Crutchy, What your leg say, gonna rain
Crutchy:
No rain... Ha, partly cloudy clear by evenin
Jack:
And a limb sells 50 papes all by itself
Crutchy:
I don't need a limp to sell papes. I've got personality
(Sung)
It takes a smile that spreads like budder
The kind that gets kinds ladies head
Racetrack:
It takes an orphan with a stutter
Jack:
Who's also blind
Mush:
And mute
Kid Blink:
And dead!
Newsies:
Summer stinks and winter's freezing
Whens you works outdoors
Start out sweating and end up sneezing
In between it all!
Still, it's a fine life
Carrying the banner with me chums!
A mighty fine life
Blowing every nickel as it comes
Race:
Hey! Whats the hold up
Waiting makes me antsy
I likes living chancy
Newsies:
Harlem tah Delancey
What a fine life
Carrying the banner through the
Three Nuns:
Blessed children
Though you wander lost and depraved
Jesus loves you
You shall be saved!
SUNG IN COUNTERPOINT:
Mother:
Patrick, darling,
Since you left me I am undone
Mother loves you!
God, save my son!
Racetrack:
Just gimme half a cup
Kid Blink:
Something ta wake me up
Mush:
I gotta find an angle
Crutchy:
I gotta sell more papes
Various Newsies:
Papers is all I got
Wish I could catch a breeze
Sure hope the headline's hot
All I can catch is fleas
God, help me if it's not!
Somebody help me, please ...
Newsies:
If I hate the headlines
I'll make up the 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
SUNG IN COUNTERPOINT:
Group one:
Look! They're puttin' up the headline
You call that a headline?
I get better stories
From the copper on the beat!
I was gonna start at twenty
Now a dozen'll be plenty
Tell me, how'm I gonna make ends meet?
Group two:
What's it say?
That won't pay!
So where's your spot?
God, it's hot!
Will ya tell me
How'm I gonna make ends meet?
Newsies:
We need a good assassination!
We need an earthquake or a war!
Snipeshooter:
How 'bout a crooked politician?
Newsies:
Hey, stupid, that ain't news no more!
Uptown to Grand Central Station
Down to City Hall
We improves our circulation
Walking till we fall
SUNG IN COUNTERPOINT:
Group one:
Still we'll be out there
Carrying the banner man to man!
We'll be out there
Soakin' every sucker that we can!

Group two:
Look, they're puttin' up the headline
They call that a headline?
The idiot who wrote it
Must be workin' for the Sun!
Did ya hear about the fire?
Group three:
Heard it killed old man Maguire!
Group two:
Heard the toll was even higher
Group three:
Why do I miss all the fun?
Group two:
Hitched it on a trolley
Group three:
Meet 'cha Forty-fourth and Second
Group two:
Little Italy's a secret
Group three:
Bleecker's further than I reckoned
Group two:
By the courthouse
Group three:
Near the stables
Group two:
On the corner someone beckoned and I -
Group one:
