Dropkick Murphys - Vices and Virtues lyrics
[Dropkick Murphys - Vices and Virtues lyrics]
Now hear me all you victims
Come listen, gather around
For now we'll tell the story of
Four brothers in the ground
One died from the bottle though
He wouldn't harm a fly
He froze in the south end alley
Behind a gin mill left to die
And another died by the bullet at
The hand's of a sniper's gun
In the valley of the Nha Trang
For a war we never won
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
The next one took his life
They said there was never any hope
He was shocked and institutionalized
Found hanging from a rope
And another son was shot again
But this time over drugs
There'll be no heroes welcome
For this small time city thug
One from the whiskey, one from the war
One by suicide, and another by the gun
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
They took their lives, they took their sons
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
They took their lives, they took their sons
One died from whiskey and another in the war
One died by suicide
And the last one by the gun
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
They took their lives, they took their sons
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
They took their lives, they took their sons
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
Come listen, gather around
For now we'll tell the story of
Four brothers in the ground
One died from the bottle though
He wouldn't harm a fly
He froze in the south end alley
Behind a gin mill left to die
And another died by the bullet at
The hand's of a sniper's gun
In the valley of the Nha Trang
For a war we never won
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
The next one took his life
They said there was never any hope
He was shocked and institutionalized
Found hanging from a rope
And another son was shot again
But this time over drugs
There'll be no heroes welcome
For this small time city thug
One from the whiskey, one from the war
One by suicide, and another by the gun
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
They took their lives, they took their sons
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
They took their lives, they took their sons
One died from whiskey and another in the war
One died by suicide
And the last one by the gun
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
They took their lives, they took their sons
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
They took their lives, they took their sons
Whiskey, war, suicide and guns
