[RIFF]
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, if the spit hits the fan
You got brothers around, you're a family man

[ICE]
You're never alone

[RIFF]
You're never disconnected

[RIFF & ICE]
You're home with your own

[ICE]
When company's expected

[RIFF]
You're well-protected
Then you are set with a capital J
Which you'll never forget 'til they cart you away
When you'rе a Jet
You stay a Jet!

(spoken)
So meet Tony and mе at the Dog Days Dance at the gym tonight. 
[ACTION, spoken]
We can't rumble at the gym, it'll be lousy with cops!

[MOUTHPIECE, spoken]
Maybe we had enough troubles with the Puerto Ricans for one day?

[RIFF, spoken]
Relax, it’s a social mixer, so we’ll mix. 
Until the time’s right to fix the rumble for tomorrow night. 
Be there 10 p.m., punctual-like!
Dressed to kill, walkin' tall!

[A-RAB, spoken]
We always walk tall! We're Jets!

[RIFF, spoken]
The greatest!

(sung)
When you're a Jet, you're the top cat in town

[DIESEL]
You're the gold-medal kid with the heavyweight crown

[RIFF]
When you're a Jet—
[BIG DEAL]
You're the swinginest thing
Little boy, you're a man

[THE JETS]
Little man, you're a king!

[RIFF]
The Jets are in gear

[BABY JOHN]
Our cylinders are clickin'

[RIFF]
The Sharks'll steer clear

[RIFF/DIESEL/BALKAN]
‘Cause every Puerto Rican's—

[RIFF/DIESEL/BALKAN/BABY JOHN/ICE/ACTION]
A lousy chicken!

[THE JETS]
Here come the Jets like a bat outta 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' a line
So keep your noses hidden
We're hangin' a sign
Says "Visitors Forbidden"
[RIFF]
And we ain't kiddin'!

[THE JETS]
Here come the Jets, yeah! And we're gonna beat
Every last buggin' gang on the whole buggin' street!
On the whole ever-mother-lovin' street!
Yeah!
