Newsies:
Ain't it a fine life
Carrying the banner through it all?
A mighty fine life
Carrying the banner tough and tall

We's as free as fishes
Sure beats washing dishes
What a fine life
Carrying the banner home-free all!

Newsies:
Summer stinks and winter's waiting
Welcome to new york
Boy, ain't nature fascinating
When youse gotta walk?
Still, it's a fine life
Carrying the banner with me chums!
A mighty fine life
Blowing every nickel as it comes

Crutchy:
I'm no snoozer
Sitting makes me antsy
I likes living chancy

Newsies:
Harlem tah delancey
What a fine life
Carrying the banner through the slums

Three nuns:
Blessed children
Though you wander lost and depraved
Jesus loves you
You shall be saved!

Mother:
Patrick, darling,
Since you left me i am undone
Mother loves you!
God, save my son!

Something ta wake me up

Mush:
I gotta find an angle

Crutchy:

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

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:

We need a good assassination!
We need an earthquake or a war!
