Dropkick Murphys - Barroom Hero [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Face down in the gutter won't admit defeat though his clothes are soiled and black
He's a big, strong man with a childs mind, don't you take his booze away!
He's been at it for years drinking balls and beer he's a hero to most he meets
But inside he cries black swollen eyes, this man he sheds no tears!
Now his wife and kids sing a different tune as they worry about their daddy dying
But this arrogant fool breaks every rule it'll be nothing but pride that kills him

[Chorus]
Could he listen no he won't that's all she wrote he'll be dead before the daylight shines
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong might keep this fool from dying

[Bridge]
He's a legend in the bar with every scar fights a thousand bigger men
But now he fights and looses got all the bruises will someone please step in?
Cause this Irish fools got a great big heart he keeps climbing back in to the ring
In the low down circles where he holds his court this man he once was king

[Chorus (2X)]

[Bridge + Chorus (2X)]
