Fairytale of New York

The Pogues w/ Kirsty MacColl

[JackDanielsU]

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 **** on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
<red>You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy Christmas your arse
I pray God it's our last </red>

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

Sadly Kirsty McColl is no longer with us. Died after being hit by a boat in 2000.

Call that a Christmas song, no wonder standards are dropping at an alarming rate in this country, but then it is from the States where else?

[delboy3]

actually it's from UK/Ireland and I'd rather listen to that any time of year than 'Mistletoe & W(h)ine'

Frequently tops polls as the best Christmas song ever...Katie Melua did a version of it last year with the Pogues also which was released
