Jet Song lyrics

The Street - 5:00 p.m.

RIFF: Against the Sharks we need every man we got

ACTION: Tony don`t belong any more.

RIFF: Cut it, Action boy. I and Tony started the Jets

ACTION: Well, he acts like he don`t wanna belong.

BABYJOHN: Who wouldn`t wanna belong to the Jets!

RIFF: Right! He`s always come through for us and he will now.

When you` re a Jet
You`re a Jet al1 the way
From your first cigarette
To you last dyin` day.
When you`re a Jet
If the shit hits the fan,
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!
I know Tony like I know me. I guarantee you
Can count him in.

ACTION: In, out, let`s get crackin`

A-RAB: Where you`re gonna find Bernardo?

RIFF: At the dance tonight at the gym

BIG DEAL: But the gym is neutral territory.

RIFF (innocently): I`m gonna make nice there! I`m
only gonna challenge him.

A-RAB: Great Daddy-O!

RIFF: so everybody dress up sweet and sharp and
meet Tony and me at ten.

ALL:
Oh, when the Jets fall in at the cornball dance
We`ll be the sweetest dressin` gang in pants!
And when the chicks dig us in our Jet black ties,
They`re gonna flip, gonna flop, gonna drop like
flies!
(They dance together a little wild )

RIFF: Hey, Cool! Easy. Sweet. See ya. And walk tall!
(He runs
