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 »

Yeah, we got the power, let's do it tonight! 
The power, tonight we got a cause and we know 
That it's right, a cause to fight
Yeah, we got the numbers, let's do it tonight! 
The numbers, alright!
Yeah, we got the power, got the power tonight!
We got the power tonight!

Nineteen men were tried and fired
August twenty sixth through twenty ninth
For violation of rule thirty five
The forbidden right to organize
They suffered the loss of their 
Livelihood that night, that night!

A city in terror on the thin blue line
A thousand plus walked off the job to 
Support their brothers 'cause
The anti union prohibition clause
Demanded loyalty at any price
On the thin blue line
On the thin blue line 
On the thin blue line 

Nineteen men were tried and fired
August twenty sixth through twenty ninth
For violation of rule thirty five
The forbidden right to organize
They suffered the loss of their 
Livelihood that night, that night!

For violation of rule thirty five
The forbidden right to organize
They suffered the loss of their 
Livelihood that night
