Lyrics:
Face Down In The Gutter,
won't Admit Defeat Though His Clothes Are Soiled And Black,
he's A Big Strong Man With A Child's Mind,
don't You Take His Booze Away... (Hey!)
he's Been At It For Years Drinkin Balls And Beers,
he's A Hero To Most He Meets (Hey Hey Hey!)
but Inside He Cries Black Swolen Eyes,
this Man He Sheds No Tears.
now His Wife And Kids Sing A Different Tune
as They Worry Bout Their Daddy Dyin (Hey Hey Hey!)
but This Arrogant Fool Breaks Every Rule
it'll Be Nothin But Pride That Kills Him
[chorus]
can He Listen No He Wont,
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. (X2)
[chorus]
he's A Legend In The Bar With Every Scar,
fights A Thousand Bigger Men (Hey Hey Hey)
now He Fights And Loses
got All The Bruises
will Someone Please Step In
cause This Irish Fools Got A Great Big Heart,
he Keeps Climbing Back Into The Ring (Hey Hey Hey),
in The Low Down Circles Where He Holds His Court,
this Man He Once Was King...
[chorus]
this One Still Goes Out To The Boston Punks And Skins,
a Rowdy Bunch Indeed...
varies From Cds
he's A Legend In The Bar With Every Scar,
fights A Thousand Bigger Men (Hey Hey Hey)
now He Fights And Loses
got All The Bruises
will Someone Please Step In
cause This Irish Fools Got A Great Big Heart,
he Keeps Climbing Back Into The Ring (Hey Hey Hey),
in The Low Down Circles Where He Holds His Court,
this Man He Once Was King...
[chorus
