My Nose Ain’t Broken - Rocky Broadway Cast Recording
Rocky: See that poster on the wall?
Rocky Marciano
Never took a single fall
Not Rocky Marciano
He and me we share a name
I think of that a lot-
How one rocky gets to the top of his game
And the other rocky
Gets what I got
I got ten sore knuckles and a ringin' ear
I got a bruise over here, and here, and over here
I got a swelled up eye and a real flat beer
But hey, my nose ain't broken
My landlord's yellin' that the rent is late
Well I got forty-one bucks, I owe him sixty-eight
I got a crooked employer and a job I hate
But hey, my nose ain't broken
Yeah, my nose ain't broken
It still looks nice
Don't need no stitches, don't need no ice
The rest of my body's gonna need advice
But hey, hey, hey
I still ain't finished, well ain't that news
Got something more than some black and blue's
At least I can say for once I didn't lose
But hey, hey, hey
No one on the street tonight
Lonely kind of feeling
I should count my blessings right
Got four walls and a ceiling
Got my poster on the wall,
And one or two small hopes
Fight a few more years or so,
As long as I can fight, ya know!
I still ain't on the ropes
(To his turtles)
If you could sing and dance, you know we'd have it made
I'd buy a second chance and get my life replayed
And I'd stay fightin' as long as Marciano stayed
I still might, but tonight,
My nose ain't broken
My nose ain't broken
Rocky Marciano
Never took a single fall
Not Rocky Marciano
He and me we share a name
I think of that a lot-
How one rocky gets to the top of his game
And the other rocky
Gets what I got
I got ten sore knuckles and a ringin' ear
I got a bruise over here, and here, and over here
I got a swelled up eye and a real flat beer
But hey, my nose ain't broken
My landlord's yellin' that the rent is late
Well I got forty-one bucks, I owe him sixty-eight
I got a crooked employer and a job I hate
But hey, my nose ain't broken
Yeah, my nose ain't broken
It still looks nice
Don't need no stitches, don't need no ice
The rest of my body's gonna need advice
But hey, hey, hey
I still ain't finished, well ain't that news
Got something more than some black and blue's
At least I can say for once I didn't lose
But hey, hey, hey
No one on the street tonight
Lonely kind of feeling
I should count my blessings right
Got four walls and a ceiling

And one or two small hopes

And I'd stay fightin' as long as Marciano stayed
I still might, but tonight,
My nose ain't broken
My nose ain't broken
