Blood And Whiskey -Dropkick Murphys
Urban legend and American folklore
Tells of a man who was one of a kind
A sure gent with a flair for fashion
Prone to violence at any time
A legendary hooligan with a thirst
For blood and a taste for booze
This brave and daring brutal soul
He lived and fought by his own rules
Shake the hand that shook the world
Shoe shine boy to champion he'd fought and beaten many foes
His calling card was a kick to the groin
And a broken bottle to the bridge of the nose
He aimed to kill when he took to the ring
This Boston strong boy loved to fight
On more than one occasion a bout
Was stopped to save an opponents life
Shake the hand that shook the world
For Blood and whiskey with a bare knuckled fist
With a bare knuckled fist
That shook the world
With a bare knuckled fist
That shook the world
Shake the hand that shook the world
For Blood and whiskey with a bare knuckled fist
Shake the hand that shook the world
For Blood and whiskey with a bare knuckled fist
