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 »

He came from nothing he tried 'em all
Ya' gotta live low before you see them fall
Always a loser he lost his shine
They had no idea what kept the beast alive

But Frankie's gonna be alright
Yeah Frankie's gonna be alright
They said he was broke and never coming back
But Frankie's gonna be alright

He swore to show them outlast them all
And someday they would see him standing tall
He'd never give in no not back down
I hope they never give up on his sound

Cause Frankie's gonna be alright
Yeah Frankie's gonna be alright
They said he was old and he couldn't hold a tune
But I think he's gonna be alright

Cause Frankie's gonna be alright
Yeah Frankie's gonna be alright
They said they'd be placing roses on his grave
But I think he's gonna be alright

Frankie don't give up on yourself you heard the voice inside
Frankie don't give up on yourself only you can save your life
Frankie don't give up on yourself you heard the voice inside
Frankie don't give up on yourself only you can save your life

Came from nothing he tried 'em all
Ya' gotta live low before you see them fall
Always a loser he lost his shine
They had no idea what kept the beast alive

Cause Frankie's gonna be alright
Yeah Frankie's gonna be alright
They said they'd be placing roses on his grave
But I think he's gonna be alright

They said they'd be placing roses on his grave
But Frankie's gonna be alright
