Artist: Dropkick Murphys Album: Do Or Die Originally released: 1998 |
Face down in the gutter won't admit defeat though his
clothes are soiled and black,
He's a big, strong man with a childs mind,
Don't you take his booze away!
He's been at it for years drinking balls and beer he's a hero to
most he meets,
But inside he cries black swollen eyes,
This man he sheds no tears!
Now his wife & kids sing a different tune as they worry about
their daddy dying,
But this arrogant fool breaks every rule it'll be nothing but
pride that kills him.
Could he listen no he won't that's all she wrote he'll be dead
before the daylight shines,
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong might keep
this fool from dying.
Could he listen no he won't that's all she wrote he'll be dead
before the daylight shines,
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong might keep
this fool from dying.
He's a legend in the bar with every scar fights a thousand
bigger men,
But now he fights and looses got all the bruises will someone
please step in?
Cause this Irish fools got a great big heart he keeps climbing
back in to the ring
In the low down circles where he holds his court this man he
once was king.
Could he listen no he won't that's all she wrote he'll be dead
before the daylight shines,
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong might keep
this fool from dying.
Could he listen no he won't that's all she wrote he'll be dead
before the daylight shines,
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong might keep
this fool from dying
