Flogging Molly - Black Friday Rule Lyrics
I want to believe in myself once againSo I dream of a man whose hopes never endTo kiss with a girl who's as lovely as youI'd give you my heart, if you gave me the truthAnd for every tear that is lost from an eyeI'd dig me a well where no man could destroyI want to believe in a freedom that's boldBut all I remember is the freedom of oldWell I lost me a wife, so I found me a planeFlew all the way to CaliforniaThis mess in my head is a mess getting outYa drink too much coffee, I drink too much stoutBut after a while, when my mouth's not so dryI'll dance up a storm, sure life's looking fineBut as darkness falls, I return to my bedDon't ask me more questions, don't ***** with my headI've been down in this world, down and almost brokenLike thousands of people, left standing in their shoeI've been down in this world, down and almost brokenAs thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday ruleThe buildings they shake but my heart it beats stillOh mother of Jesus, I feel pretty illI want to go home where my feet both feel safeBut there ain't no jobs in the old free stateSo I must remain in my new adopted landI'm doing the best, Hell I'm doin' all I canSo next time you see me, don't ask for my nameFor I am the King and sure long may I reignI've been down in this world, down and almost brokenLike thousands of people, left standing in their shoeI've been down in this world, down and almost brokenAs thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday ruleI've been down in this world, down and almost brokenLike thousands of people, left standing in their shoeI've been down in this world, down and almost brokenAs thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
