Your rating:
RIFF (spoken) Right. And he'll do it again. He always came through for us; he always will... (sung) When you're a Jet You're a Jet all the way From your first cigarette To your last dyin' day When you're a Jet Let them do what they can You got brothers around You're a family man! You're never alone You're never disconnected You're home with your own When company's expected You're well protected! Then you are set With a capital J Which you'll never forget Till they cart you away When you're a Jet You stay A Jet! (spoken) I know Tony like I know me. I guarantee you can count him in ACTION In, out, let's get crackin' SNOWBOY Where ya gonna find Bernardo? It ain't safe ta go inna PR territory RIFF He'll be at the dance tonight at the gym A-RAB But the gym's neutral territory RIFF I'm gonna make nice there A-rab. I'm on'y gonna challenge him ICE Great, Daddy-O! RIFF So everyone dress up sweet'n sharp. Meet Tony an' me there at ten. An' walk tall! A-RAB We always walk tall! BABY JOHN We're Jets! ICE The coolest! SNOWBOY The greatest! (sung) When you're a Jet You're the top cat in town You're the gold medal kid With the heavyweight crown ICE When you're a Jet You're the swingin'est thing Little boy, you're a man Little man, you're a king ALL The Jets are in gear Our cylinders are clickin' The Sharks'll steer clear 'Cause every Puerto Rican 'S a lousy chicken Here come the Jets Like a bat out of hell Someone gets in our way Someone don't feel so well Here come the Jets Little world, step aside Better go underground Better run, better hide We're drawin' the line So keep your noses hidden We're hangin' a sign Says "visitors forbidden" And we ain't kiddin'! Here come the Jets (Yeah!) And wer're gonna beat Every last buggin' gang On the whole buggin' street On the whole! Buggin'! Ever! Lovin'! Street!
