Dropkick Murphys - The Dirty Glass lyrics
[Dropkick Murphys - The Dirty Glass lyrics]
Murphy, Murphy, darling dear
I long for you now night and day
Your pain was my pleasure, your sorrow my joy
I feel now I've lost you
To health and good cheer
Darcy, when I met you I
Was five years too young
A boy beyond his age, or so I'd tell someone
Anyone who'd listen and a
Few who couldn't care
Still I welcomed you with open arms
My love I did share
Darcy, Darcy darling dear
You left me dying, crying there
In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer
I fell for you my darling dear
You shut me off and you showed me the door
But, you always came crawling back
Begging me for more
I showed you kindness, a stool, and a tab
Then you poured me my pain in a dirty glass
(yeah, you left him
Bloody, battered, penniless, and poor)
You know
I often stopped and wondered how you
Made it through my door
With my brother's new
Non-duplicate registry ID
Well you bit off more than you could
Chew the first day you met me
You weren't the first to court me
Mister you won't be the last
Oh, I'm sure I wasn't honey
I know all about your past
Listen to the big shot with his pager on call
You spent most of those nights
In my bathroom stall
(yeah, you got him high
But you left him low)
Mind your own business, boy
How was I to know
That he was just a fiend and a no-good cheat
Well it's all in the past bitch
Cause now I've got it beat
My dear, my dear
Darcy, Darcy my darling dear
I long for you now night and day
Your pain was my pleasure, your sorrow my joy
I feel now I've lost you
To health and good cheer
Darcy, when I met you I
Was five years too young
A boy beyond his age, or so I'd tell someone
Anyone who'd listen and a
Few who couldn't care
Still I welcomed you with open arms
My love I did share
Darcy, Darcy darling dear
You left me dying, crying there
In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer
I fell for you my darling dear
You shut me off and you showed me the door
But, you always came crawling back
Begging me for more
I showed you kindness, a stool, and a tab
Then you poured me my pain in a dirty glass
(yeah, you left him
Bloody, battered, penniless, and poor)
You know

My dear, my dear
Darcy, Darcy my darling dear
