Betting Man歌词完整版
The priest throws virtue
Onto his sinners
While the disciple intoxicates
His children's lives
His lungs and his liver
With distraction he pre meditates
If the 3:10 at the curragh comes in 7-1
It will be a real good day
But if that filly falls he'll still
Be drinking talls
It's the kids that'll
Have no where to stay at all
Expect that big old
House in mountjoy square
The one you wouldn't think would
Still be there standing there
I was only there for weeks back in 89
You know it stayed with me
It stayed with me for a long long time
It rained turned to snow
Sometime around christmas day
My eyes meet with those
Of a homeless girl
I felt guilt I have to say
Guilt for that man
With his kids in the bar
Throwing it all away
He won't be around
To keep them sound
Somehow they're going
To find their own way
To that big old
House in mountjoy square
The one you wouldn't think would
Still be there standing there
I was only there for weeks back in 89
You know it stayed with me it stayed
With me for a long long time
Soldiers died on these very streets
The bullet holes lie there in stone
All for a man
With no glory at all of his own
Except that horse that could
Change it all
That one that's standing
Primed in it's stall
For its that next punt
Ts that next brew that will
Keep those kids
Always walking in your shoes
