the rumjacks - patron saint o' thieves lyrics

a christmas song from behind the wire
auld nick patron saint o thieves, murderers & sailors
strike these shackles from me uh-huh
slide the bolt from out the door & tear down all the wire
my babys growin cold & im on fire
the aind that whistles off the hills & carries her perfume
carries too a lonely carol badly out of tune
for just tonight beyond them walls id lay a mountain low
and sing to her like only i know how

they dont hang no fairy lights these rusty iron bars
so ill burn a paper lamp for her to see
though shes left like a widow of a war that never was
theres a light still burns in me

auld nick patron saint o’ merchants, p-wnmen & the judges
who barter with the lives o men the battlers & the bludgers
go haunt the dogs awhile they sleep & thrash em round to sense
theres to many good bkys this side of the fence

theres boys in here for liftin gear from non-be-wary strangers
newly minted ner-do-wells & them born with the dangers
for ljvin less than fruitful lives, toppin less than faithful wives
a broken line o’ fools that span the ages

auld nick patron saint o’ fools from both sides of the law
for his sake wipe the dirty grin off that fat b-st-rds jaw
for we’re lovers of tradition & we might yet find a way
to hold them bl–dy keys come boxing day
