Dropkick Murphys

Dropkick Murphys are an American punk rock band formed in Quincy, Massachusetts in 1996. The band was initially signed to independent punk record label Hellcat Records, releasing five albums for the label, and making a name for themselves locally through constant touring and yearly St. Patrick's Day week shows, held in and around Boston. The 2004 single "Tessie" became the band's first and one of their biggest charting singles to date. The band's final Hellcat release, 2005's The Warrior's Code, included "I'm Shipping Up to Boston", which was featured in the Academy Award-winning movie The Departed and went on to become one of the band's biggest singles, one of their best-known songs, and an anthem for Boston sports teams. more »

God loves the good old USA
Congrats to one and all
We've traveled to the top
Now they're ready for our fall
We've reached new heights and seen the sights
Smell the roses while we can
For another star has fallen in America

For a democracy to work
We gotta see it from both sides
Stop pointing fingers
Shut your mouth and compromise
These last ten long months
Our division really grew
When the guy in charge said
"It's just another flu"

Let's get our shit together
Not make things such a fuss
We can't behave like nitwits
The world is watching us
No more silly temper tantrums
Let's all just behave
Remember who we are
We're the home of the brave

God loves the good old USA
Congrats to one and all
We've traveled to the top
Now they're ready for our fall
We've reached new heights and seen the sights
Smell the roses while we can
For another star has fallen in America

We used to be the heroes
Today we are their trash
They took all our good will
And they shoved it up our ass
The welcome has worn out
For the red, white, and blue
If we don't smarten up
They're gonna tell us all to screw

But can you really blame 'em all
For thinking that we suck?
With our antics and behavior
The people are fed up
So let's find a common ground
On which we can agree
Congress, Senate, White House
And Mike the legend Lee

God loves the good old USA
Congrats to one and all
We've traveled to the top
Now they're ready for our fall
We've reached new heights and seen the sights
Smell the roses while we can
For another star has fallen in America

Na na na na
Na na na na
Hey, hey, hey
Goodbye
Na na na na
Na na na na
Hey, hey, hey
Goodbye

Everyone's talking louder
To make sure that they are heard
But just like when mom yelled at us
We didn't catch a word
Restraint of pen and tongue
A lost thought of times gone by
Today you think it, then you tweet it
In an outburst on the fly

God loves the good old USA
Congrats to one and all
We've traveled to the top
Now they're ready for our fall
We've reached new heights and seen the sights
Smell the roses while we can
For another star has fallen in America
