Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
It was Christmas Eve, babe In the drunk tank An old man said to me Won't see another one And then he sang a song 'The Rare Old Mountain Dew' I turned my face away And dreamed about you They've got cars big as bars They've got rivers of gold But the wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old When you first took my hand, on a cold Christmas Eve You promised me Broadway, was waiting for me You were handsome! You were pretty, Queen of New York City When the band finished playing, they howled out for more Sinatra was swinging, all the drunks, they were singing We kissed on a corner and danced through the night The boys of the NYPD choir were singing 'Galway Bay' And the bells were ringing out for Christmas day You're a bum, you're a punk You're an old slut on junk Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed You scumbag, you maggot You cheap lousy blagget Happy Christmas, your arse, I pray God it's our last The boys of the NYPD choir still singing "Galway Bay" And the bells are ringing out for Christmas day I could have been someone Well, so could anyone You took my dreams from me When I first found you I kept them with me, babe I put them with my own Can't make it all alone I've built my dreams around you The boys of the NYPD choir still singing "Galway Bay" And the bells are ringing out for Christmas day The boys of the NYPD choir still singing "Galway Bay" And the bells are ringing out for Christmas day
