[BURR] There’s nothing like summer in the city Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty There’s trouble in the air, you can smell it And Alexander’s by himself. I’ll let him tell it [HAMILTON] I hadn’t slept in a week I was weak, I was awake You never seen a bastard orphan More in need of a break Longing for Angelica Missing my wife That’s when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life, she said: [MARIA] I know you are a man of honor I’m so sorry to bother you at home But I don’t know where to go, and I came here all alone… [HAMILTON] She said: [MARIA] My husband’s doin’ me wrong Beatin’ me, cheatin’ me, mistreatin’ me... Suddenly he’s up and gone I don’t have the means to go on [HAMILTON] So I offered her a loan, I offered to walk her home, she said [MARIA] You’re too kind, sir [HAMILTON] I gave her thirty bucks that I had socked away She lived a block away, she said: [MARIA] This one’s mine, sir [HAMILTON] Then I said, “well, I should head back home,” She turned red, she led me to her bed Let her legs spread and said: [MARIA] Stay? [HAMILTON] Hey… [MARIA] Hey… [HAMILTON] That’s when I began to pray: Lord, show me how to Say no to this I don’t know how to Say no to this But my God, she looks so helpless And her body’s saying, “hell, yes” [MARIA] Whoa... [HAMILTON] Nooo, show me how to [HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE] Say no to this [HAMILTON] I don’t know how to [HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE] Say no to this [HAMILTON] In my mind, I’m tryin’ to go [ENSEMBLE] Go! Go! Go! [HAMILTON] Then her mouth is on mine, and I don’t say… [ENSEMBLE] No! No! Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! [HAMILTON] I wish I could say that was the last time I said that last time. It became a pastime A month into this endeavor I received a letter From a Mr. James Reynolds, even better, it said: [JAMES] Dear Sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth In the pockets of people like me: down on their luck You see, that was my wife who you decided to [HAMILTON] Fuuuu- [JAMES] Uh-oh! You made the wrong sucker a cuckold So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled And hey, you can keep seein’ my whore wife If the price is right: if not I’m telling your wife [HAMILTON] I hid the letter and I raced to her place Screamed “How could you?!” in her face She said: [MARIA] No, sir! [HAMILTON] Half dressed, apologetic. A mess, she looked Pathetic, she cried: [MARIA] Please don’t go, sir! [HAMILTON] So was your whole story a setup? [MARIA] I don’t know about any letter! [HAMILTON] Stop crying Goddamnit, get up! [MARIA] I didn’t know any better [HAMILTON] I am ruined... [MARIA & HAMILTON] Please don’t leave me with him helpless (I am helpless-how could I do this?) Just give him what he wants and you can have me I don’t want you Whatever you want (I don’t want you) [MARIA, HAMILTON, & ENSEMBLE] If you pay (I don’t…) You can stay Lord, show me how to Say no to this (Say no to this!) Tonight (I don’t know how to) (Say no to this!) Say no to this 'Cause the situation’s helpless (Helpless) And her body’s screaming, “Hell, yes” (Whoa!) How can you (No, show me how to) (Say no to this!) Say no to this? (Say no to this) (Say no to this!) How can I say no to this? There is nowhere I can go (Go! Go! Go!) When her body’s on mine I do not say… (No!) [HAMILTON, MARIA, & ENSEMBLE] Yes (Yes!) Say no to this! No! Yes (Yes!) Say no to this! No! Yes (Yes!) Say no to this! No! Yes (Yes!) Say no to this! Say no to this… I don’t say no to this (Don’t say no to this) There is nowhere I can go Go go go... [JAMES] So? [HAMILTON] Nobody needs to know
Things that are really enjoyable in the instrumental: -That weird noise that plays every couple of seconds when Hamilton starts singing. -The harp when the “No, No! Say no to this!” part comes. -The overall romantic vibe you get from hearing the music. -The intense music when the letter is read. That’s all.
Here I stand A woman Talking to her man I know you're my man In the deepest, sweetest parts of me Where I can't pretend I want you for always Ain't no reason To try and navigate around A dream coming true for wishin' I need your decision now Cause I'm standing here with my soul in my hand Ooh, everybody round here wants me I think you can, and you should We could be so happy, baby I'll be your ever-lovin' woman You'll be me ever-lovin' man I'll be your angel and your best friend Wait a minute, what you say? (What?) How, how you gonna say no (What?) How you gonna say no to me? Ooh (Say no to this) I can't believe it (Say no to this) I can't conceive of this (Go, go, go) Ooh, how (Oh no, say no to this) How (Oh no, say no to this) How you gonna say no (Oh no, say no to this) Oh (Oh no, say no to this) Oh baby, say yes Ooh, I'm so wide open, and so is my dress Um, hey, baby There's no such thing as perfection But I'm offering you my love and a genuine connection You can have my loyalty and all of my affection You're looking everywhere, but every road will lead to my direction Don't play play, ain't no cause for you to ever say nay I'm a freak with technique, but the epitome of a lady I'm the element of surprise, you can call me Eureka! I'll make you buzz when I put this face on your tweeter Ooh, I'm standing here with my heart in my hands Oh baby, baby, don't you understand We could be so happy I'll be your ever-lovin' woman You'll be me ever-lovin' man I'll be your angel and your best friend How, how, how (Say no to this) How you gonna say no to this? (Say no to this) Ow, I'm standing here, baby Oh (Say no to this) Don't say no (Say no to this) Don't say no (Go, go, go) I love you so, I love you, baby (No!) Oh (Say no to this) How (No! Say no to this) How (No!) Don't say no to this (Say no to this no!) Here I stand A woman (go, go, go) Talking to her man It appears to me that you're on some bullshit You better get a grip and you better get it quick I'm trying to help you
This is amazing! Thank you! I also have a suggestion for a karaoke video. You could do One Last Time. One version where we sing with Washington, and another with Hamilton. Just an idea. But that you for making this! I love your videos!

[BURR]
There’s nothing like summer in the city
Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty
There’s trouble in the air, you can smell it
And Alexander’s by himself. I’ll let him tell it
[HAMILTON]
I hadn’t slept in a week
I was weak, I was awake
You never seen a bastard orphan
More in need of a break
Longing for Angelica
Missing my wife
That’s when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life, she said:
[MARIA]
I know you are a man of honor
I’m so sorry to bother you at home
But I don’t know where to go, and I came here all alone…
[HAMILTON]
She said:
[MARIA]
My husband’s doin’ me wrong
Beatin’ me, cheatin’ me, mistreatin’ me...
Suddenly he’s up and gone
I don’t have the means to go on
[HAMILTON]
So I offered her a loan, I offered to walk her home, she said
[MARIA]
You’re too kind, sir
[HAMILTON]
I gave her thirty bucks that I had socked away
She lived a block away, she said:
[MARIA]
This one’s mine, sir
[HAMILTON]
Then I said, “well, I should head back home,”
She turned red, she led me to her bed
Let her legs spread and said:
[MARIA]
Stay?
[HAMILTON]
Hey…
[MARIA]
Hey…
[HAMILTON]
That’s when I began to pray:
Lord, show me how to
Say no to this
I don’t know how to
Say no to this
But my God, she looks so helpless
And her body’s saying, “hell, yes”
[MARIA]
Whoa...
[HAMILTON]
Nooo, show me how to
[HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE]
Say no to this
[HAMILTON]
I don’t know how to
[HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE]
Say no to this
[HAMILTON]
In my mind, I’m tryin’ to go
[ENSEMBLE]
Go! Go! Go!
[HAMILTON]
Then her mouth is on mine, and I don’t say…
[ENSEMBLE]
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
[HAMILTON]
I wish I could say that was the last time
I said that last time. It became a pastime
A month into this endeavor I received a letter
From a Mr. James Reynolds, even better, it said:
[JAMES]
Dear Sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health
And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth
In the pockets of people like me: down on their luck
You see, that was my wife who you decided to
[HAMILTON]
Fuuuu-
[JAMES]
Uh-oh! You made the wrong sucker a cuckold
So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled
And hey, you can keep seein’ my whore wife
If the price is right: if not I’m telling your wife
[HAMILTON]
I hid the letter and I raced to her place
Screamed “How could you?!” in her face
She said:
[MARIA]
No, sir!
[HAMILTON]
Half dressed, apologetic. A mess, she looked
Pathetic, she cried:
[MARIA]
Please don’t go, sir!
[HAMILTON]
So was your whole story a setup?
[MARIA]
I don’t know about any letter!
[HAMILTON]
Stop crying
Goddamnit, get up!
[MARIA]
I didn’t know any better
[HAMILTON]
I am ruined...
[MARIA & HAMILTON]
Please don’t leave me with him helpless (I am helpless-how could I do this?)
Just give him what he wants and you can have me
I don’t want you
Whatever you want (I don’t want you)
[MARIA, HAMILTON, & ENSEMBLE]
If you pay (I don’t…)
You can stay
Lord, show me how to
Say no to this (Say no to this!)
Tonight (I don’t know how to)
(Say no to this!)
Say no to this
'Cause the situation’s helpless (Helpless)
And her body’s screaming, “Hell, yes” (Whoa!)
How can you (No, show me how to)
(Say no to this!)
Say no to this? (Say no to this)
(Say no to this!)
How can I say no to this?
There is nowhere I can go (Go! Go! Go!)
When her body’s on mine I do not say… (No!)
[HAMILTON, MARIA, & ENSEMBLE]
Yes (Yes!)
Say no to this!
No!
Yes (Yes!)
Say no to this!
No!
Yes (Yes!)
Say no to this!
No!
Yes (Yes!)
Say no to this!
Say no to this…
I don’t say no to this (Don’t say no to this)
There is nowhere I can go
Go go go...
[JAMES]
So?
[HAMILTON]
Nobody needs to know
THANKS
I FORGET THE WORDS TO JAMES REYNOLDS PART HALFWAY THROUGH SO I STARTED SINGING THE PART FROM "WE KNOW"
MOOD
LMAOANJSNDJWBA
Pfft-
Things that are really enjoyable in the instrumental:
-That weird noise that plays every couple of seconds when Hamilton starts singing.
-The harp when the “No, No! Say no to this!” part comes.
-The overall romantic vibe you get from hearing the music.
-The intense music when the letter is read.
That’s all.
I forgot that this had the chorus and when it started saying "No! No!" I jUMPED
s a m e
i with u
I had to pause it because I started dying💀
Here I stand
A woman
Talking to her man
I know you're my man
In the deepest, sweetest parts of me
Where I can't pretend
I want you for always
Ain't no reason
To try and navigate around
A dream coming true for wishin'
I need your decision now
Cause I'm standing here with my soul in my hand
Ooh, everybody round here wants me
I think you can, and you should
We could be so happy, baby
I'll be your ever-lovin' woman
You'll be me ever-lovin' man
I'll be your angel and your best friend
Wait a minute, what you say?
(What?)
How, how you gonna say no (What?)
How you gonna say no to me?
Ooh (Say no to this)
I can't believe it (Say no to this)
I can't conceive of this (Go, go, go)
Ooh, how (Oh no, say no to this)
How (Oh no, say no to this)
How you gonna say no (Oh no, say no to this)
Oh (Oh no, say no to this)
Oh baby, say yes
Ooh, I'm so wide open, and so is my dress
Um, hey, baby
There's no such thing as perfection
But I'm offering you my love and a genuine connection
You can have my loyalty and all of my affection
You're looking everywhere, but every road will lead to my direction
Don't play play, ain't no cause for you to ever say nay
I'm a freak with technique, but the epitome of a lady
I'm the element of surprise, you can call me Eureka!
I'll make you buzz when I put this face on your tweeter
Ooh, I'm standing here with my heart in my hands
Oh baby, baby, don't you understand
We could be so happy
I'll be your ever-lovin' woman
You'll be me ever-lovin' man
I'll be your angel and your best friend
How, how, how (Say no to this)
How you gonna say no to this? (Say no to this)
Ow, I'm standing here, baby
Oh (Say no to this)
Don't say no (Say no to this)
Don't say no (Go, go, go)
I love you so, I love you, baby (No!)
Oh (Say no to this)
How (No! Say no to this)
How (No!)
Don't say no to this (Say no to this no!)
Here I stand
A woman (go, go, go)
Talking to her man
It appears to me that you're on some bullshit
You better get a grip and you better get it quick
I'm trying to help you
I am ashamed to know the lyrics so well. I was on time for everything THE FIRST TRY.
same
is there anyway you could do congratulations?
This is amazing! Thank you! I also have a suggestion for a karaoke video. You could do One Last Time. One version where we sing with Washington, and another with Hamilton. Just an idea. But that you for making this! I love your videos!
Say Yes To This Lyrics
[Intro]
Here I stand
A woman
Talking to her man
I know you're my man
[Verse 1]
In the deepest, sweetest parts of me
Where I can't pretend
I want you for always
Ain't no reason
To try and navigate around
A dream coming to fruition
I need your decision now
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I'm standing here with my soul in my hand
Oh, everybody 'round here wants me
I think you can, and you should
We could be so happy, baby
I'll be your ever-lovin' woman
You'll be my ever-lovin' man
I'll be your angel and your best friend
(What?)
Wait a minute, what did you say?
(What?)
How, how you gonna say no (What?)
How you gonna say no to me?
[Chorus: Jill Scott, Hamilton sample]
Ooh (Say no to this)
I can't believe it (Say no to this)
I can't conceive of this (Go, go, go)
Oooh, how (Oh no, say no to this)
How (Oh no, say no to this)
How you gonna say no (Oh no, say no to this)
Oh (Oh no, say no to this)
Oh baby, say yes
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, I'm so wide open, and so is my dress
[Verse 2]
Um, hey, baby
There's no such thing as perfection
But I'm offering my love and a genuine connection
You can have my loyalty and all of my affection
You're looking everywhere, but every road will lead to my direction
Don't play play, ain't no cause for you to ever say nay
I'm a freak with technique, but the epitome of a lady
I'm the element of surprise, you can call me Eureka!
I'll make you buzz when I put this bass on your tweeter
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooooh, I'm standing here with my heart in my hands
Oh baby, baby, don't you understand
We could be so happy
I'll be your ever-lovin' woman
You'll be me ever-lovin' man
I'll be your angel and your best friend
[Chorus: Jill Scott, Hamilton sample]
How, how, how (Say no to this)
How you gonna say no to this? (Say no to this)
Ow, I'm standing here, baby
Oh (Say no to this)
Don't say no (Say no to this)
Don't say no (Go, go, go)
I love you so, I love you, baby (No!)
Oh (Say no to this)
How (No! Say no to this)
How (No!)
Don't say no to this (Say no to this. No!)
(Say no to this)
[Post-Chorus: Jill Scott, Hamilton sample]
Here I stand
A woman (go, go, go)
Talking to her man
[Outro]
It appears to me that you're on some bullshit
You better get a grip and you better get it quick
I'm trying to help you

I specifically searched "without backing vocals" nice job tho but I'm still looking for a plain instrumental version

[BURR]
There’s nothing like summer in the city
Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty
There’s trouble in the air, you can smell it
And Alexander’s by himself. I’ll let him tell it
[HAMILTON]
I hadn’t slept in a week
I was weak, I was awake
You never seen a bastard orphan
More in need of a break
Longing for Angelica
Missing my wife
That’s when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life, she said:
[MARIA]
I know you are a man of honor
I’m so sorry to bother you at home
But I don’t know where to go, and I came here all alone…
[HAMILTON]
She said:
[MARIA]
My husband’s doin’ me wrong
Beatin’ me, cheatin’ me, mistreatin’ me...
Suddenly he’s up and gone
I don’t have the means to go on
[HAMILTON]
So I offered her a loan, I offered to walk her home, she said
[MARIA]
You’re too kind, sir
[HAMILTON]
I gave her thirty bucks that I had socked away
She lived a block away, she said:
[MARIA]
This one’s mine, sir
[HAMILTON]
Then I said, “well, I should head back home,”
She turned red, she led me to her bed
Let her legs spread and said:
[MARIA]
Stay?
[HAMILTON]
Hey…
[MARIA]
Hey…
[HAMILTON]
That’s when I began to pray:
Lord, show me how to
Say no to this
I don’t know how to
Say no to this
But my God, she looks so helpless
And her body’s saying, “hell, yes”
[MARIA]
Whoa...
[HAMILTON]
Nooo, show me how to
[HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE]
Say no to this
[HAMILTON]
I don’t know how to
[HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE]
Say no to this
[HAMILTON]
In my mind, I’m tryin’ to go
[ENSEMBLE]
Go! Go! Go!
[HAMILTON]
Then her mouth is on mine, and I don’t say…
[ENSEMBLE]
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
[HAMILTON]
I wish I could say that was the last time
I said that last time. It became a pastime
A month into this endeavor I received a letter
From a Mr. James Reynolds, even better, it said:
[JAMES]
Dear Sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health
And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth
In the pockets of people like me: down on their luck
You see, that was my wife who you decided to
[HAMILTON]
Fuuuu-
[JAMES]
Uh-oh! You made the wrong sucker a cuckold
So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled
And hey, you can keep seein’ my whore wife
If the price is right: if not I’m telling your wife
[HAMILTON]
I hid the letter and I raced to her place
Screamed “How could you?!” in her face
She said:
[MARIA]
No, sir!
[HAMILTON]
Half dressed, apologetic. A mess, she looked
Pathetic, she cried:
[MARIA]
Please don’t go, sir!
[HAMILTON]
So was your whole story a setup?
[MARIA]
I don’t know about any letter!
[HAMILTON]
Stop crying
Goddamnit, get up!
[MARIA]
I didn’t know any better
[HAMILTON]
I am ruined...
[MARIA]
Please don’t leave me with him helpless
Just give him what he wants and you can have me
Whatever you want,
[HAMILTON]
I am helpless-how could I do this?
I don’t want you
I don’t want you
[MARIA]
If you pay
You can stay
Tonight
Helpless
Whoa!
How can you
Say no to this?
[HAMILTON]
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes. [HAMILTON]
I don’t…
Lord, show me how to
Say no to this
I don’t know how to
Say no to this
Cuz the situation’s helpless
And her body’s screaming, “Hell, yes”
No, show me how to
Say no to this
How can I
Say no to this?
There is nowhere I can go
When her body’s on mine I do not say…
[MARIA]
Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
[ENSEMBLE]
Say no to this!
Say no to this!
Say no to this!
Say no to this!
Go! Go! Go!
No!
[ENSEMBLE]
Say no to this!
No!
Say no to this!
No!
Say no to this!
No!
Say no to this!
[HAMILTON]
Say no to this…
I don’t say no to this
There is nowhere I can go.
[MARIA]
Don’t say no to this
[ENSEMBLE]
Go go go...
[JAMES]
So?
[HAMILTON]
Nobody needs to know
Yes! I've been looking for this because I wanted to do a cover soooo :D
please do blow us all away
Great vocals!
Could you possibly do A Farmer Refuted?
Could you do some fun home stuff? these are so awesome!
Is there anyway you could do do some songs from spring awakening:)
Can you do one without the ensemble
Is there anyway you could do one with just the instrumental without the vocals?
Do you have the full instrumental version without backing vocals?
yes
Check the description ma dude
Could i use this as music for a speedpaint, if i credit you?
where did you get the instrumental track? nice work :)
BRO WHY DOES THE "No!" IN THE ENSEMBLE SOUND LIKE LAURENZSIDE SAYING NO???????
I kinda mashed up the lyrics from say yes to this, say no to this cut version and the official version here’s the lyrics to my little mashup
Here I stand
A woman
Talking to her man
I know you're my man
I hadn't slept in a week
I was weak, I was awake
You've never seen a bastard orphan more in need of a break
Longing for Angelica
Missing my wife
That's when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life, she said
I know you are a man of honor
I'm so sorry to bother you at home
But I don't know where to go, and I came here all alone
She said
My husband's doin' me wrong
Beatin' me, cheatin' me, mistreatin' me
Suddenly he's up and gone
I don't have the means to go on
So I offered her a loan, I offered to walk her home, she said
You're too kind, sir
I gave her thirty bucks that I had socked away
She lived a block away, she said
This one's mine, sir
Then I said, "Well, I should head back home"
She turned red, she led me to her bed
Let her legs spread and said
Stay
Hey
Hey
That's when I began to pray
Lord, show me how to say no to this
I don't know how to say no to this
But my God, she looks so helpless
And her body's saying, "Hell, yes"
Whoa
No, show me how to say no to this
I don't know how to say no to this
In my mind, I'm tryin' to go (go, go, go)
Then her mouth is on mine, and I don't say
No, no (say no to this)
No, no (say no to this)
No, no (say no to this)
No, no (say no to this)
(Pause the vid)
Helpless look into your eyes and sky limit
He will never be satisfied he will be satisfied
(Unpause)
I wish I could say that was the last time
I said that last time, it became a pastime
A month into this endeavor I received a letter
From a Mr. James Reynolds, even better, it said
Um, hey, baby
There's no such thing as perfection
But I'm offering you my love and a genuine connection
You can have my loyalty and all of my affection
You're looking everywhere, but every road will lead to my direction
Don't play play, ain't no cause for you to ever say nay
I'm a freak with technique, but the epitome of a lady
I'm the element of surprise, you can call me Eureka!
I'll make you buzz when I put this face on your tweeter
I hid the letter and I raced to her place
Screamed, "How could you?" In her face, she said
No, sir
Half dressed, apologetic, a mess, she looked pathetic, she cried
Please don't go, sir
So was your whole story a setup?
I don't know about any letter (stop crying God dammit, get up)
I didn't know any better (I am ruined)
Please don't leave me with him helpless (I am helpless how could I do this?)
Just give him what he wants and you can have me (I don't want you, I don't want you)
Whatever you want, if you pay
You can stay (Lord, show me how to say no to this)
I don't know how to say no to this
But this situation's helpless (helpless)
And her body's screaming, "Hell, yes"
No, show me how to say no to this (whoa)
How can I say no to this?
There is nowhere I can go (go, go, go)
When her body's on mine I do not say (no) yes Yes (no) yes yes (no) yes yeah yeah yeah yes (no) yes Yess
Here I stand
A woman (go, go, go)
Talking to her man
It appears to me that you're on some bullshit
You better get a grip and you better get it quick
I'm trying to help you
Idk I tried
n o
no
Would’ve helped if there were words
no
what the hech is this
