Lyrics
Sing:
When youâre a Jet,
Youâre a Jet all the way
From your first cigarette
To your last dyinâ day.
When youâre a Jet,
If the spit hits the fan,
You got brothers around,
Youâre a family man!
Youâre never alone,
Youâre never disconnected!
Youâre home with your own:
When companyâs expected,
Youâre well protected!
Then you are set
With a capital J,
Which youâll never forget
Till they cart you away.
When youâre a Jet,
You stay a Jet!
Sing:
When youâre a Jet,
Youâre the top cat in town,
Youâre the gold medal kid
With the heavyweight crown!
When youâre a Jet,
Youâre the swinginâ-est thing:
Little boy, youâre a man;
Little man, youâre a king!
The Jets are in gear,
Our cylinders are clickinâ!
The Sharksâll steer clearâ
Cause evâry Puerto Ricanâs a lousy chicken!
Here come the Jets
Like a bat out of hell.
Someone gets in our way,
Someone donât feel so well!
Here come the Jets:
Little world, step aside!
Better go underground,
Better run, better hide!
Weâre drawinâ the line,
So keep your noses hidden!
Weâre hanginâ a sign,
Says âVisitors forbiddenâ
And we ainât kiddinâ!
Here come the Jets, yeah!
And weâre gonna beat
Evâry last bugginâ gang
On the whole bugginâ street
On the whole! Ever! Mother! Lovinâ! Street!
Yeah!
When youâre a Jet,
Youâre a Jet all the way
From your first cigarette
To your last dyinâ day.
When youâre a Jet,
If the spit hits the fan,
You got brothers around,
Youâre a family man!
Youâre never alone,
Youâre never disconnected!
Youâre home with your own:
When companyâs expected,
Youâre well protected!
Then you are set
With a capital J,
Which youâll never forget
Till they cart you away.
When youâre a Jet,
You stay a Jet!
Sing:
When youâre a Jet,
Youâre the top cat in town,
Youâre the gold medal kid
With the heavyweight crown!
When youâre a Jet,
Youâre the swinginâ-est thing:
Little boy, youâre a man;
Little man, youâre a king!
The Jets are in gear,
Our cylinders are clickinâ!
The Sharksâll steer clearâ
Cause evâry Puerto Ricanâs a lousy chicken!
Here come the Jets
Like a bat out of hell.
Someone gets in our way,
Someone donât feel so well!
Here come the Jets:
Little world, step aside!
Better go underground,
Better run, better hide!
Weâre drawinâ the line,
So keep your noses hidden!
Weâre hanginâ a sign,
Says âVisitors forbiddenâ
And we ainât kiddinâ!
Here come the Jets, yeah!
And weâre gonna beat
Evâry last bugginâ gang
On the whole bugginâ street
On the whole! Ever! Mother! Lovinâ! Street!
Yeah!
