Start Jamming...
[D] Well, the talented cast of Newsies are our Times Square neighbors.
We've seen them run and flip through this head all morning, and now they're heading over here from their home just a few blocks away.
Come on over.
[Dm]
[Bb] [A]
[D] Alley to the harbor, there's easy pickin's guaranteed.
Try [F] any bank [D] of bum [G] or barber, they [A] almost all knows how [D] to read.
[G] It's a crooked game we're playing.
One will never lose.
[Bb] Long as suckers don't mind [F] [Bb] ban, just suckin' [A] bad news.
[D] Still it's a fine line, [A] carryin' [D] the banner.
Still it's a fine line, carryin' the banner.
Watch them change shots, tossin' out a freebie.
Put up big shots, [Bm] tossin' out a freebie.
What's a [D] holdup?
[A] Waitin' makes me antsy.
I like slivin' chancy.
All of [B] Tuttle and See [Bm] what a fine [G] line, [Ab] [Am] carryin' the banner.

A pistol back on the way.
