96,000 (Radio Edit) Lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, Christopher Jackson, Robin de Jesús, Seth Stewart, Janet Dacal, Andréa Burns

In The Heights (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2008

[USNAVI]
Ninety-six thousand

[SONNY/BENNY]
Damn!

[USNAVI]
Ninety-six thousand

[SONNY]
Dollas? Holla!

[USNAVI]
Ninety-six thousand

[BENNY, spoken]
Yo, somebody won!

[USNAVI]
Ninety-six thousand!

[BENNY]
Yo, if I won the lotto tomorrow, well, I know
I wouldn't bother goin' on no spendin' spree
I pick a business school and pay the entrance fee
Then maybe if you're lucky, you'll stay friends with me
I'll be a businessman, richer than Nina's daddy
Donald Trump and I on the links, and he's my caddy
My money's makin' money, I'm goin' from po' to mo' dough
Keep the bling, I want the brass ring, like Frodo

[USNAVI]
Oh no, here goes Mr. Braggadocio
Next thing you know, you're lying like Pinocchio

[BENNY]
C'mon, I'll have enough to knock your ass off its axis

[USNAVI]
You'll have a knapsack full of jack after taxes

[BENNY]
For real, though, imagine how it would feel goin' real slow
Down the highway of life with no regrets
And no breakin' your neck for respect or a paycheck
For real, though, I'll take a break from the wheel and we'll throw
The biggest block party, everybody here
It's a weekend when we can breathe, take it easy

[CARLA]
Check one, two, three
What would you do with ninety-six Gs?

[DANIELA]
Who me?

[CARLA]
I mean if it's just between you and me

[DANIELA]
Esa pregunta es tricky

[CARLA]
I know

[DANIELA]
With ninety-six Gs
I'd start my life with a brand new lease
Atlantic City with a Malibu Breeze

[CARLA]
And a brand new weave!

[DANIELA]
Or maybe just bleach...

[VANESSA]
Y'all are freaks

[VANESSA]
If I win the lottery, you'll never see me again

[USNAVI]
Damn, we only jokin', stay broke then

[VANESSA]
I'll be downtown
Get a nice studio, I'll get out of the barrio

[VANESSA]
If I win the lottery
You'll wonder where I've been

[BENNY]
For real, though, imagine how it would feel goin' real slow
Down the highway of life with no regrets
And no breakin' your neck for respect or a paycheck

[VANESSA]
I'll be downtown
See you around
If I win the lottery
You won't see a lot of me
I'll be downtown
See you around

[WOMEN]
Why-oh!

[VANESSA]
Around

[WOMEN]
Why-oh!

[BENNY]
For real though, I'll take a break from the wheel and we'll throw
The biggest block party, everybody here
A weekend when we can breathe, take it easy
For real, though, imagine how it would feel goin' real slow
Down the highway of life with no regrets
And no breakin' your neck for respect or a paycheck
For real though, I'll take a break from the wheel and we'll throw
The biggest block party, everybody here
A weekend when we can breathe, take it easy

[USNAVI]
Yo, it's silly when we get into these crazy hypotheticals
You really want some bread? Then go ahead create a set of goals
And cross 'em off the list as you pursue ‘em
And with those ninety-six, I know precisely what I'm doin'

Yo, it's silly when we get into these crazy hypotheticals
You really want some bread? Then go ahead create a set of goals
And cross 'em off the list as you pursue ‘em
And with those ninety-six, I know precisely what I'm doin'
Yo, it's silly when we get into these crazy hypotheticals
You really want some bread? Then go ahead create a set of goals
And cross 'em off the list as you pursue ‘em
And with those ninety-six, I know precisely what I'm doin'
And with those ninety-six, I know precisely what I'm doin'
Yo!

[VANESSA]
I'll be downtown

[USNAVI/BENNY/SONNY]
We could pay off the debts we owe

[VANESSA/CARLA/DANIELA]
We could tell everyone we know

[USNAVI]
I could get on a plane and go

[USNAVI/BENNY/SONNY]
We be swimmin' in dough, yo!

[USNAVI/BENNY/SONNY/VANESSA/GRAFFITI PETE/MEN]
No tip-toein'
We'll get the dough ‘n'

[ALL]
Stop tip-toein'
We'll get the dough an'
Once we get goin'
We're never gonna—

[SONNY/PIRAGUA GUY/DANIELA/CARLA/VANESSA]
Ninety-six thousand
Ninety-six thousand
Ninety-six thousand

[COMMUNITY]
We'll get the dough ‘n'
Once we get goin'

[COMPANY]
We'll get the dough ‘n'
Once we get goin'
We're never gonna stop!
