Composer(s): Leonard Bernstein

Chip:
Oh If you feel downhearted
You must remember this
Things never are as bad as they could be
When friends have all departed
there's one you'll never miss
I'll be right with you 
you can count on me

All:
you can count on me
you can count on me

Chip:
As the adding machine once said
you can count on me

Hildy:
If you committed murder
And got caught like a dope
And had to hang until your life was done
I'd holler go no furder
Boy's fetch another rope
I'm hanging with you 
I'll stick to you son

All:
I'll stick to you son
(I'll always's be beside you)
I'll stick to you son
(We'll go through life together)

Hildy:
As the fly paper told the fly
I'll stick to you son

Claire:
Oh if you miss your mother 
on land or see of foam 
Oh think of how toy once clung to her knee
Although there is no other 
on land or sea or foam
When you in town kid 
you can cling to me

All:
You can cling to me
You can cling to me

Claire:
As the cling film told the pie
You can cling to me

Ozzie:
When through a lot of foolery
You lost your last red cent
I wouldn't even stop to ask you why
(Ask him why)
I'd pawn my mothers jewellery
I'd steal my sister rent
It's all for you kid 
You can milk me dry

All:
You can milk me dry
You can milk me dry

Ozzie:
as the cow to the farmer said 
you can milk me dry

Lucy:
If Upon this Island
we two were cast astray
We bothe would be in paradise indeed
If rescue cam you only shout at them
"GO AWAY!"
Because you find that I am all you need

All:
I am all you need
I am all you need

Lucy:
as the dough told the pastry pin
I am all you kneed    

All:
you can count on me
you can count on me
As the adding machine once said
you can count on me

Lucy:
2-4-6-8 who do we appreciate?

All:
You can count on me!
