Newsies: Ain't it a fine life

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

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

Nuns
Blessed children
Though you wander lost and depraved
Jesus loves you
You shall be saved!
