Dropkick Murphys - Barroom Hero Lyrics
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Dropkick Murphys Barroom Hero Comments
ME BEER... WHERE'S MY FOOKING BEER
Rohom. Hero
He's been at it 4 years.
This song is about Vegeta
It's damn hard to knock out a drunk Irishman.
Shout-out all bar room heroes who are no longer w us. Oi!
I’ve always loved how people use this song to romanticize their booze filled escapades...but when you listen to the words, it isn’t like that. This song paints a really sad picture...
Play this at the bar before anyone really notices me...."oh shit he's back, go tell him he's kicked out and we called the police"
Eunuch States of a Matriarchy so you’re a trump voter
This is what I listen to when I fight my bicycle piss drunk because the bars are closed.
My #1 fave band
They need to learn the difference between Ireland and Scotland, I know to you Americans its all the same, but it isnt.
My favorite is still for Boston
God bless little Johnny who fought with two knives and Dennis Thompson who fought a thousand bigger men and never lost! He was a rib cracking nose breaking son of a gun.
If you folks like Mike McColgan's vocals check out his band Street Dogs.
Happy St. Patty's 2019. Stay safe out there.
I've been in a few bar brawls. It felt a lot like a Dropkick Murphy's pit......until I woke up in a Louisville drunk tank with stitches....a rowdy bunch indeed
Awesome song and a great barroom tribute. #LetsGoMurphys
Oii oii oii
this song goes out to my friend Jason Miller a barroom hero who is no longer with us.
I remember hearing them in Hawaii and my dumbass friend trying to start a fight lol. Good thing I've got some good negotiating skills. Did NOT feel like fighting with a bunch of Samoans
What a great tune
Someone make a Conor McGregor highlight reel with this song for fucks sake
Fucken love this song I drink a beer every morning to this
The song that plays as my casket leaves the memorial service. Got me through my physical therapy
THE HERD
BACK AGAIN
Street dogs anyone?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osOnx_OkIxs
Impossible to drive slow with this blasting
Listen london skinhead crew!! Fuck yeah!!!
Clearly a song about my friend...lad is barely over 20 and still im sure this is gonna be him even after dozens of years.
RESTREPO! GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Takes me back to my days in the Corps, saw the 20th anniversary concert in Chicago, got the t shirt, there still as good as they were back then
This was my theme song for a while. lol
Happy st Patrick's 2017 to all the Irish brothers and sisters! Peace
so good.
YEAH MOTHERFUCKERS
RESTREPO
OP Restrepo, Korengal valley, Afghanistan.
My dad has videos of me singing this in the car when I was 3 years old lmao love the murphy's, just got new Doc Martens with white laces :)
No sir, as in white laces. They look the best and most properly represent the music I've come to love.
@Oblivion - Gaming Then you might wanna be careful with them because they're generally associated with neo-nazism and white supremacy.
triggered
stop with the dress codes, Trojan skins wore what they could get their hands on, not to follow dress codes, this isn't grade school
they DO look the best. you are some kind of jerk taking the side of stereotype rather than posting a permanent comment to support the end of said stereotype. whatever. if you didn't think of that and you have decent intentions at least do it next time.
Fucking love this song
ANYBODY KNOW IF THERES A INTSUMENTAL OF THIS?? JUST THE MUSIC.....NOT THE LYRICS....
JON DAHMER!! <3
Jeffery Dahmer
I love my family's motherland and the badass music and what it means. I love my motherland more and the city that raised me, Philadelphia, PfuckingA. Fuck you Boston. I'll dropkick your ass. The only difference between you and a New York faggot is I'll help you back up......if I won.
punk celta

I had one bar fight in my life. Dude was huge, my beer balls were just as huge. I kept losing because the Irish in me kept making me get back up. Pog Mo Thoin!!
The red, black and blue comes and goes but the green white and orange will ALWAYS be there.
That's what we do, never fall!
I've had plenty bar fights, not surprising considering I used to be a doorman. I too am of Irish heritage, and let me just tell ya, the hardest man to kick out of a bar is an Irish one.
Rideca74 you didn't lose, you won until you couldn't get up anymore. Sounds like you've got staying power dude.
Listening to this finishing up my 6 pack by myself, but later tonight I'll be in the pit with my brothers!
Oi! Drink on!!
42 People lost a barfight
+Hanky Cuntpunt ive lost two bar fights in my life. the first guy was a fuckin hulk and the second guy thought it would be cool to break a pool stick on the side of my head. right now hes spendin time in the slammer for assault and battery. i was with my cousin who was the county sheriff. the guy fuckin got tased when he came after my cousin.
@Austin Hanks

+Austin Hanks thats funny shit
@Austin Hanks cool story..I'm just kiddin
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Restrepo!
Eloome exactly where i got it from!
DON'T YOU TAKE HIS BOOZE AWAY~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!
Hay hay hay, RESTREPO !!!!!
Fucking A this song, went beautifully to the ending. Made me want join even more, this song just nails it, especially knowing my dad who served in the Big Red One as a non-combatant mechanic. Growing up with him gone, and having him come back with his stories, taught me what the U.S. Army really was all about. The man heard about Cadence, and had some big boots to fill. Getting shit-faced ALWAYS, push buttons, breaking things, running from the people with army buddies that helped you break the things and are also running from the angry mob angry about their things being broken. Hey, that's what they get for posting a Bean in Germany.
Loved the film, the Captain was the fucking man. Just "fuck you" to the stingy elder pricks. Continues on into the second film. GOTTA KEEP THIS FOOL FROM DYING!!!
Second Film?
Cheeky Bum korengol
@derek williams Just found it on netflix
Ah Restrepo, what an ending and what a great song! Hooah to the guy's that fought in Afghanistan, was lucky enough to never have to go there, only Iraq.
Restrepo!!!!!
@wovokanarchy its a Boston accent...nothing gaelic about it.
RESTREPO!
What is that?
@Guido Octavio https://youtu.be/M1aq4j1RWQE

@Poeticriffraff er GO GET A GIRLFRIEND
@Peter D
Making assumptions? Another post to prove how utterly ignorant and characteristically repugnant you are.
Me an my gf been together 3 years n counting, you dandruff-eating, armpit-licking offense to all of good taste and decency.
@Poeticriffraff er WOOOOOOOW. sad just... sad
YUO"R STILL REPLYING JUST SHUT UP OK I THUOGHT I MADE IT CLEAR IN THE LAST REPLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
in return, hers a list of five, just FIVE of ur problems (yes there is more) :
1. U KEEP MAKING SPACES IN YOUR REPLIES I MEAN WATS UP WITH THAT
2. UR SUPER EXTREMLY MEGA ULTRA STUBBORN!
3. YOUR THE FRIKIN ONE WHO STARTED IT
4. IF UR SOOO IN TOUCH WITH UR GIRL, THEN Y R U STILL HERE (like seriously just go cuddle or something)
5. U KEEP MAKING ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT ME AND MY HOBBIES (and if you think that I do too, look at 3)
^^He's officially lost it.
Have fun being a fucking moron for the rest of your life lol... The proof is here in writing, and it's clear u have no idea what ur talking about.
You started this. Not Me.
I am stubborn, especially when arguing with idiots who seem to think theyr'e right no matter what (ironic)
This wil be the last post I comment to, as reading ur comments could lower my IQ to ur level, and thats a scary thought.
Bye, dumbass!
@Poeticriffraff er u started it in the first place
Restrepo!!
My consolidations. I bet he is out drinking st. Micheal right now.
A rowdy bunch indeed.
Kickass song all day
YES MAN
Legend of a song :)
Amen to that brother
To the bar room heroes that are no longer with us. Aye.
The ultimate toast to drinking friends gone by.
They have many technologies. They just aren't showing off like US, you see their tank form 70s and laugh, but when war comes they will unsheathe the new weapons they have. Same as everyone believes that T-90 is the Russia's latest tank while they keep the real weapons hidden away from the public eye.
my glass raises to you
the americans military is more advanced then the Chinese though, and in modern military 'view' so to speak, soldier quanity no longer represents quality as it once did. had the germans discovered the atomic bomb first way back then, they would have won, or caused a stalemate anyways. back to the point, china is always playing catch up and is apparently unable to invent anything on their own, always stealing, in a state of war, they would be at a even larger disadvantage.
Crack some brews and pack some chew for the bruins
I'm from Boston. And if I hear one more person say Boston strong I'm gonna off myself. STFU with that, it's sounds so gay
if this doesnt get your spirits up then nothing will
Driving around on chariots and throwing javellins at people, that'd be quite the spectacle wouldnt it.
For restrepo!
For Restrepo
See - I don't get the whole neo-nazi thing. If you're going to imitate a fascist dictatorial nation that tried to conquer the world and lost, at least choose Rome. How great would that be? Instead of skinheads, we'd have people putting on Togas and running around having crazy parties. You'd get a lot more people signin' up than saying, "Shave off your head and follow a bunch of book-burning morons."
FACE DOWN IN THE GUTTER, WONT ADMIT DEFEAT THOSE HIS CLOTHES ARE SOILED A BLACK...HE'S A BIG STRONG MAN WITH A CHILD'S MIND, DON'T YOU TAKE HIS BOOZE AwaaAAAY.
my hart go's to the people at the Boston marathon :(
RESTREPO!
China has largest military in the world. it would take you 4 years to kill them all if they all willingly surrendered and agreed to be shot 10.000 a day. Just think about the "exponent" and scale.
All brawn and no brain
For those men and women who are serving this very country, we salute you. This song is my life.
Restrepo
