Carrying the banner through it all
A mighty fine life, carrying the banner tough and tall
Every morning we goes where we wishes
Wes as free as fishes
Sure beats washing dishes
What a fine life, carrying the banner home-free allIt takes a smile as sweet as butter
The kind that ladys can't resist
It takes an orphan with a stutter
who aint afraid to use his FISTSummer stinks and winters waiting
Welcome to New York
Boy aint nature fascinating
When yous gotta walkSo its a fine life carrying the banner with me chums
Its a fine life carrying the banner with me chums

All I can catch is fleas

Near the stables
On the corner someone beckoned!
