Fairytale of New York (feat. Kristy MacColl)

[00:08.15] It was Christmas Eve babe
[00:13.14] In the drunk tank
[00:16.50] An old man said to me: "Won't see another one"
[00:25.29] And then he sang a song
[00:30.13] The Rare Old Mountain Dew
[00:34.09] I turned my face away
[00:38.35] And dreamed about you
[00:42.33] Got on a lucky one
[00:47.21] Came in eighteen to one
[00:51.43] I've got a feeling
[00:55.20] This year's for me and you
[00:59.67] So happy Christmas
[01:04.55] I love you baby
[01:08.44] I can see a better time
[01:12.62] When all our dreams come true
[01:17.63]
[01:29.36] They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold
[01:32.40] But the wind goes right through you
[01:34.49] It's no place for the old
[01:35.66] When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
[01:38.79] You promised me Broadway was waiting for me
[01:41.54] You were handsome
[01:42.48] You were pretty
[01:43.23] Queen of New York City
[01:44.65] When the band finished playing
[01:46.06] They howled out for more
[01:47.82] Sinatra was swinging,
[01:49.25] All the drunks they were singing
[01:50.65] We kissed on a corner
[01:52.03] Then danced through the night
[01:53.59] The boys of the NYPD choir
[01:56.64] Were singing "Galway Bay"
[01:59.59] And the bells were ringing out for Christmas day
[02:05.51]
[02:14.33] You're a bum, you're a punk
[02:16.05] You're an old slut on junk
[02:17.78] Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
[02:20.65] You scumbag, you maggot
[02:22.33] You're cheap and you're haggard
[02:23.74] Happy Christmas your arse
[02:25.49] I pray God it's our last
[02:26.86] The boys of the NYPD choir
[02:29.75] Still singing "Galway Bay"
[02:32.57] And the bells are ringing out
[02:35.03] For Christmas Day
[02:38.34]
[02:46.52] I could have been someone
[02:49.91] Well so could anyone
[02:53.05] You took my dreams from me
[02:56.17] When I first found you
[02:59.23] I kept them with me babe
[03:02.43] I put them with my own
[03:05.44] Can't make it alone
[03:08.21] I've built my dreams around you
[03:12.78] The boys of the NYPD choir
[03:16.42] Still singing "Galway Bay"
[03:19.23] And the bells are ringing out
[03:21.53] For Christmas Day
[03:22.67]
