Once And For All Lyrics

Denton:

This is the story you wanted to write

Well, tonight is the night that you can

Jack:

Just get this done and by dawn's early light

You can finish the fight you began

David:

This time we're in it to stay

Sarah:

Think about seizing the day

Jack:

Think of that train

As she rolls into old

Santa Fe ...

Tell 'em I'm on my way.

Newsies:

See old man Pulitzer snug in his bed

He don't care if we're dead or alive

Three satin pillows are under his head

While we're begging for bread to survive

Joe, if you're still counting sheep

Wake up and read 'em and weep!

You got your thugs with their sticks and their slugs

Yeah, but we got a promise to keep!

Once and for all

Something tells me the tide will be turning

Once and for all

There's a fire inside me that won't stop burning

Now that the choices are clear

Now that tomorrow is hear

Watch how the mighty will fall

For once and for all!

This is for kids shining shoes on the street

With no shoes on their feet every day

This is for guys sweating blood in the shops

While the bosses and cops look away

This is to even the score

This ain't just newsies no more

This ain't just kids with some pie in the sky

This is do it or die

This is war!

Once and for all

We'll be there to defend one another

Once and for all

Every kid is our friend

Every friend, a brother

Five thousand fists in the sky!

Five thousand reasons to try!

We're going over the wall

Better to die than to crawl

Either we stand or we fall

For once ... once and for all
