High Times Hard Times
Medda:
High Times
Hard times
Sometimes the living is sweet
and sometimes there's nothing to eat
But i always land on my feet
so when there's dry times
I wait for high times and then
I put on my best
and I stick out my chest
and I'm off to the races again!

*(My good friend the mayor,
he called me today
and said all the voters are turning away!
"Help me!" he cried "or they'll give me the axe!"
I said you're honor you've got to relax!"...everybody!)

Newsies and Medda:
High times
Hard times
sometimes the living is sweet
and sometimes there's nothing to eat
But i always land on my feet
so when there's dry times
I wait for high times and then
I put on my best and I stick on my chest and i'm off
to the races again! )

Medda:
so your old lady
don't love you no more
so you're afraid there's a wolf at your door
so you've got streetrats
that scream in your ear..

Newsies and medda:
you win some you lose some my dear!
oh high times hard times
sometimes the living is sweet
and sometimes there's nothing to eat
But i always land on my feet
so when there's dry times
I wait for high times and then
I put on my best

Newsies:
I put on my best
Medda:
Yes, and I stick out my chest!
Newsies:
And

Medda:

And I'm off!
Newsies:
And I'm off!
Medda:

Newsies:
