allie sherlock - fairytale of new york lyrics

[verse 1]
it was christmas eve, babe, in the drunk tank
an old man said to me, “won’t see another one”
and then he sang a song, ‘the rare old mountain dew’
i turned my face away and dreamed about you

[verse 2]
got on the lucky one, came in eighteen+to+one
i’ve got this feeling, this year’s for me and you
so, happy christmas, i love you, baby
i can see a better time when all our dreams come true
[verse 3]
they’ve got cars big as bars, they’ve got rivers of gold
but the wind goes right through you, no place for the old
when you first took my hand on that cold christmas eve
you promisеd me broadway was waiting for me

[verse 4]
you werе handsome, you were pretty, queen of new york city
when the band finished playing, they howled out for more
sinatra was swinging, all the drunks, they were singing
we kissed on a corner, then danced through the night

[chorus]
but the boys of the nypd choir were singing
“galway bay“ and the bells were ringing out
for christmas day

[verse 5]
you’re a bum, you’re a punk, you’re an old sl+t on junk
lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
you scumbag, you maggot, you cheap, lousy f+ggot
happy christmas, your +rs+, pray to god it’s our last

[chorus]
but the boys of the nypd choir were singing
“galway bay“ and the bells were ringing out
for christmas day
[verse 6]
i could have been someone
well, so could anyone
you took my dreams from me
when i first found you
i kept them with me, babe
i put them with my own
can’t make it all alone
i’ve built my dreams around you

[chorus]
but the boys of the nypd choir were singing
“galway bay”and the bells were ringing out
for christmas day

[outro]
but the boys of the nypd choir were singing
“galway bay”and the bells were ringing out
for christmas day
