Intro:
Face down in the gutter won't admit defeat
Though his clothes are soiled and black,
He's a big, strong man with a childs mind,
Don't you take his booze away!
C
Verse 1:
C
He's been at it for years drinkin' balls and beer,
FC
He's a hero to most he meets,
FC
But inside he cries black swollen eyes
GFC
This man he sheds no tears
C
Now his wife & kids sing a different tune
FC
As they worry about their daddy dyin',
FC
But this arrogant fool breaks every rule
GFC
It'll be nothing but pride that kills him
Chorus:
FC
Could he listen no he won't that's all she wrote
GC
He'll be dead before the daylight shines
FC
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong
GFC
Might keep this fool from dying
Verse 2:
C
He's a legend in the bar with every scar
FC
Fights a thousand bigger men,
FC
But now he fights and loses got all the bruises
GFC
Will someone please step in?
C
Cause this Irish fools got a great big heart
FC
He keeps climbing back into the ring
FC
In the low down circles where he holds his court
GFC
This man he once was king
