One Last Time

[HAMILTON]Mr. President, you asked to see me?

[WASHINGTON]I know you’re busy

[HAMILTON]What do you need, sir? Sir?

[WASHINGTON]I wanna give you a word of warning

[HAMILTON]Sir, I don’t know what you heardBut whatever it is, Jefferson started it

[WASHINGTON]Thomas Jefferson resigned this morning

[HAMILTON]You’re kidding

[WASHINGTON]I need a favor

[HAMILTON]Whatever you say, sir, Jefferson will pay for this behavior

[WASHINGTON]Shh. Talk less

[HAMILTON]I’ll use the pressI’ll write under a pseudonym, you’ll see what I can do to him—

[WASHINGTON]I need you to draft an address

[HAMILTON]Yes! He resigned. You can finally speak your mind—

[WASHINGTON]No, he’s stepping down so he can run for President

[HAMILTON]Ha. Good luck defeating you, sir

[WASHINGTON]I’m stepping down. I’m not running for President

[HAMILTON]I’m sorry, what?

[WASHINGTON]One last timeRelax, have a drink with meOne last timeLet’s take a break tonightAnd then we’ll teach them how to say goodbyeTo say goodbyeYou and I

[HAMILTON]No, sir, why?

[WASHINGTON]I wanna talk about neutrality

[HAMILTON]Sir, with Britain and France on the verge of war, is this the best time—

[WASHINGTON]I want to warn against partisan fighting

[HAMILTON]But—

[WASHINGTON]Pick up a pen, start writingI wanna talk about what I have learnedThe hard-won wisdom I have earned

[HAMILTON]As far as the people are concernedYou have to serve, you could continue to serve—

[WASHINGTON]No! One last timeThe people will hear from meOne last timeAnd if we get this rightWe’re gonna teach ‘em how to sayGoodbyeYou and I—

[HAMILTON]Mr. President, they will say you’re weak

[WASHINGTON]No, they will see we’re strong

[HAMILTON]Your position is so unique

[WASHINGTON]So I’ll use it to move them along

[HAMILTON]Why do you have to say goodbye?

[WASHINGTON]If I say goodbye, the nation learns to move onIt outlives me when I’m goneLike the scripture says:“Everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig treeAnd no one shall make them afraid.”They’ll be safe in the nation we’ve madeI wanna sit under my own vine and fig treeA moment alone in the shadeAt home in this nation we’ve madeOne last time

[HAMILTON]One last time

Though, in reviewing the incidents of my administration, I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors. I shall also carry with me

[HAMILTON AND WASHINGTON]The hopeThat my country willView them with indulgence;And thatAfter forty-five years of my life dedicated to its service with an upright zealThe faults of incompetent abilities will beConsigned to oblivion, as I myself must soon be to the mansions of restI anticipate with pleasing expectation that retreat in which I promise myself to realize the sweet enjoyment of partaking, in the midst of my fellow-citizens, the benign influence of good lawsUnder a free government, the ever-favorite object of my heart, and the happy reward, as I trustOf our mutual cares, labors, and dangers.

[WASHINGTON]One last time

[ALL WOMEN]George Washington’s going home!

[HAMILTON]Teach ‘em how to say goodbye

[COMPANY]George Washington’s going home!

[WASHINGTON]You and I

[COMPANY]George Washington’s going home!

[WASHINGTON]Going home

[COMPANY]George Washington’s going home!

[WASHINGTON]History has its eyes on you

[COMPANY]George Washington’s going home!

[WASHINGTON]We’re gonna teach ‘em how toSay goodbye!Teach them how toSay goodbye!To say goodbye!

[COMPANY]Say goodbye!

[WASHINGTON]Say goodbye!

[COMPANY]Say goodbye!

[WASHINGTON]One last time!

[COMPANY]One last time!
