Fairytale Of New York Lyrics - If I Should Fall From Grace With God - Pogues

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 

 

Got on a lucky one 

Came in eighteen to one 

I've got a 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 

 

They've got cars big as bars 

They've got rivers of gold 

But the wind goes right through you 

It's no place for the old 

When you first took my hand 

On a cold Christmas Eve 

You promised me 

Broadway was waiting for me 

 

You were 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 

 

The boys of the NYPD choir 

Were singing "Galway Bay" 

And the bells were ringing out 

For Christmas day 

 

You're a bum 

You're a punk 

You're an old slut on junk 

Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed 

You scumbag, you maggot 

You cheap lousy faggot 

Happy Christmas your arse 

I pray God it's our last 

 

The boys of the NYPD choir 

Still singing "Galway Bay" 

And the bells were ringing out 

For Christmas day 

 

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 

 

The boys of the NYPD choir 

Still singing "Galway Bay" 

And the bells are ringing out 

For Christmas day
