Guns And Ships

Lin-Manuel Miranda

[Burr]
How does a ragtag volunteer army
In need of a shower
Somehow defeat a global superpower?
How do we emerge victorious from the quagmire?
Leave the battlefield
Waving Betsy Ross' flag higher?
Yo. Turns out we have a secret weapon!
An immigrant you know and love
Who's unafraid to step in!
He's constantly confusin', confoundin'
The British henchmen
Ev'ryone give it up
For America's favorite fighting Frenchman!

[Company]
Lafayette!

[Lafayette]
I'm takin this horse by the reins
Makin' Redcoats redder with bloodstains

[Company]
Lafayette!

[Lafayette]
And I'm never gonna stop until I make 'em
Drop and burn 'em up and scatter their remains, I'm

[Company]
Lafayette!

[Lafayette]
Watch me engagin' em! Escapin' em!
Enragin' em! I'm

[Company]
Lafayette!

[Lafayette]
I go to France for more funds

[Company]
Lafayette!

[Lafayette]
I come back with more guns
And ships
And so the balance shifts

[Washington]
We rendezvous with Rochambeau
Consolidate their gifts

[Lafayette]
We can end this war at Yorktown
Cut them off at sea, but
For this to succeed, there is someone else we need

[Washington]
I know

[Company]
Hamilton!

[Lafayette]
Sir, he knows what to do in a trench
Ingenuitive and fluent in French, I mean

[Company]
Hamilton!

[Lafayette]
Sir, you're gonna have to use him eventually
What's he gonna do on the bench? I mean

[Company]
Hamilton!

[Lafayette]
No one has more resilience
Or matches my practical tactical brilliance

[Company]
Hamilton!

[Lafayette]
You wanna fight for your land back?

[Washington]
I need my right hand man back!

[Lafayette]
Ah! Uh, get ya right hand man back
You know you gotta get ya right hand man back

I mean you gotta put some thought into the letter
But the sooner the better
To get your right hand man back!

[Washington]
Alexander Hamilton
Troops are waiting in the field for you
If you join us right now
Together we can turn the tide
Oh, Alexander Hamilton
I have soldiers that will yield for you
If we manage to get this right
They'll surrender by early light
The world will never be the same, Alexander
