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 »

Now I saw a man stand up one day and fight to save his life
Just a common worker, supporting his kids and his wife
Put a plug in his jug, things looked up for sure 
But the whole damn thing of it was there is no blasted cure.

Now I saw a man stand up one day and fight to save his life
Just a common worker, supporting his kids and his wife
Put a plug in his jug, things looked up for sure 
But the whole damn thing of it was there is no blasted cure.

I've seen a few men go "The Road of the Righteous" 
And just a few have traveled "This Old Lonely Path"
I've seen a few men go "The Road of the Righteous" 
By God I'm sure I'll see some more "Go Their Blessed Way." 

Hey it's gonna, take some foot work to get you on your way 
They'll be pit-falls and some cat-calls but hard you must persist
Cause life is so precious and we have only got one shot, 
You move along and you stay God strong all the treasures will be got. 

I've seen a few men go "The Road of the Righteous" 
And just a few have traveled "This Old Lonely Path"
I've seen a few men go "The Road of the Righteous" 
By God I'm sure I'll see some more "Go Their Blessed Way." 

I've seen a few men go "The Road of the Righteous" 
And just a few have traveled "This Old Lonely Path"
I've seen a few men go "The Road of the Righteous" 
By God I'm sure I'll see some more "Go Their Blessed Way."

Now I saw a man stand up one day and fight to save his life
Just a common worker, supporting his kids and his wife
Put a plug in his jug things looked up for sure 
But the whole damn thing of it was there is no blasted cure.

I've seen a few men go "The Road of the Righteous" 
And just a few have traveled "This Old Lonely Path"
I've seen a few men go "The Road of the Righteous" 
By God I'm sure I'll see some more "Go Their Blessed Way."
