Flogging Molly - The Ol' Beggars Bush Lyrics
Stuck on limbo bridgeWhere below me ol' Nick grinsThen laughs through the chaos of it allGets up off his chairSpins a jig to my despairHe can't wait to count the times where I went wrongUnderneath the bush, lay a beggar out of luckOn his lips, was a taste he forgetsHis hopes were filled with sandThat he watched fall through his handEvery grain, was a lifetime of regretSo go and bow your head and weepFor your world won't change while you sleepYeah, go and bow your head and weepFor the summer that was lost, now is goneFertile Mrs. Moore had thirteen kidsBut still looked goodTill her ol' man jumped leave on a shipShe never read a bookBut by Christ she understoodThat the meanin' of lifeStarts in bedSo go and bow your head and weepFor your world won't change while you sleepYeah, go and bow your head and weepFor the summer that was lost, now is goneKiller Kilbain kicked me senseless everydayI hope that bastard is beneath a head of stoneWhere I'd dance upon his graveFor all the madness I now craveWhile the scars that remain are still a curseSo I'm stuck on a limbo bridgeWhere below me ol' Nick grinsThen laughs through the chaos of it allGets up off his chairSpins a jig to my despairHe can't wait to count the times where I went wrongYeah, he can't wait to count the times where I went wrong
