Sing with me won't you? 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…

[sub]Just trying to get a little christmas spirit[/sub]

[sub](Yay! My favorite Christmas song.)[/sub]

I turned my face away,
and dreamed about you…

“… suuuuuuuuuuudenly … I got that ol’ time feeeeelin’
as I brushed your arm, and walked soooooooo cloooooose to youuuuuuuuuuuuu …”

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 got cars big as bars
they 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 day
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 the 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.

Chorus…

I could have been someone…

well so could anyone…

[sub]Where’s Coldie?[/sub]

You took my dreams from me

I’ve kept them with me, babe,
And put them with my own.
Can’t make it all alone.
I’ve built my dreams around you.

The way I hear it, one evening he was lying down by Leicester Square, where he was picked up by the coppers and kicked in the balls. Between the metal doors at Vine Street he was beaten and mauled, and they ruined his good looks for the old main drag…

sorry…wrong album. :slight_smile:

Oh, and stick this up there somewhere …

When I first found you

[sub]neofish I meant Coldfire, he usually pops into this thread when it makes the annual appearance. :)[/sub]

Ok, is there anyone else who thinks this is the BEST XMAS SONG EVER? Especially that bit?

I miss her, BTW.

Repeat chorus.

The End.

RIP Kirsty
