Hamilton Song by Line

Hint

Answer

I know that we can win / I know that greatness lies in you

The world has no right to my heart / The world has no place in our bed

Don’t get me wrong, you’re a young man of great renown / I know you stole British cannons when we were still downtown

I wanna talk about what I have learned / The hard-won wisdom I have earned

And I pray / That never used to happen before

I wrote Eliza love letters until she fell / I wrote about The Constitution and defended it well

Washington hires Hamilton right on sight / But Hamilton still wants to fight, not write

An immigrant embezzling our government funds / I can almost see the headline, your career is done

Longing for Angelica / Missing my wife/ That’s when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life

In every place I checked / The only common thread has been your disrespect

When your people say they hate you / Don’t come crawling back to me

Geniuses, lower your voices / You keep out of trouble and you double your choices

Will you relish being a poor man’s wife / Unable to provide for your life? /

Raise a glass to freedom / Something they will never take away

Jefferson’s the runner-up, which makes him the Vice President / Washington can’t help you now, no more mister nice President

as our fallen foes retreat / I hear the drinking song they’re singing…

I helped Lafayette draft a declaration / Then I said, ‘I gotta go'

Alexander, come back to sleep / I have an early meeting out of town

We can end this war at Yorktown, cut them off at sea, / but for this to succeed, there is someone else we need

The Ship is in the harbor now / See if you can spot him

Eliza, I don’t have a dollar to my name / acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame

Such a blunder sometimes / It makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder

Wouldn’t you like to work a little closer to home? / Actually, I would / Well, I propose the Potomac

Hint

Answer

That can’t be / That’s that little guy who spoke to me

Daddy said to be home by sundown / Daddy doesn’t need to know

My grandfather was a fire and brimstone preacher / But there are things that the Homilies and hymns won't teach ya

You say / The price of my love’s not a price that you’re willing to pay

Confession time? Here’s what I got / My fellow soldiers’ll tell you I’m a terrible shot

And there you are, an ocean away / Do you have to live an ocean away?

Oh, I can’t wait to see you again / It’s only a matter of time

If Alexander can get married / There’s hope for our ass, after all!

Who provided those funds? / France

The challenge demand satisfaction / If they apologize, no need for further action

I remember that night / I just might / Regret that night for the rest of my days

Go home, Alexander / That’s an order from your commander

A thousand soldiers die in a hundred degree heat / As we snatch a stalemate from the jaws of defeat

Alexander Hamilton had a torrid affair / And he wrote it down right there

I’m John Laurens in the place to be! / Two pints o’ Sam Adams, but I’m workin’ on three, uh!

I did exactly as you said / Pa I held my head up high

I didn’t say anything that wasn’t true / Your father’s a scoundrel, and so, it seems, are you

Can we get back to politics? / Please?

Chaos and bloodshed are not a solution / Don’t let them lead you astray

When you smile, I fall apart / And I thought I was so smart

If there’s a fire you’re trying to douse / You can’t put it out from inside the house

Wall Street thinks you’re great / You’ll always be adored by the things you create

I am sailing off to London. / I’m accompanied by someone who always pays
