Dropkick Murphys - Boys On The Docks Lyrics
Say hey Johnny boy, the battle call.
United we stand, divided we fall.
Together we are what we can't be alone,
We came to this country, you made it our home.
A legend to many, he fought to his grave.
Saved family and friends from the hardship and horror,
in a land of depression he gave hope for tomorrow.
Say Johnny me boy, this ones for you.
With the strength of many and the courage of few.
To what do we owe this man who's fight
was for the masses, he gave his life.
Say hey Johnny boy, the battle call
Together we are what we can't be alone,
We came to this country, you made it our home.
A friend to the locals who dabbled in crime.
He'd give you a job and he'd give you his time.
He wasn't a crook, but he couldn't be conned.
John knew the difference between right and wrong.
Say Johnny me boy, you live no longer,
Others forgotten, your memory's stronger.
Lets drink to the causes in your life:
Your family, your friends, the union, your wife.
Say hey Johnny boy, the battle call.
United we stand, divided we fall.
Together we are what we can't be alone.
We came to this country, you made it our home.
[x2]
And the boys on the docks needed John for sure.
When they came to this country he opened the door.
He said "Man I'll tell ya, they don't like our kind.
Though it starts with a fist it must end with your mind."
Say hey Johnny boy, the battle call.
United we stand, divided we fall.
Together we are what we can't be alone.
We came to this country you made it our home.

"Though it starts with your fist, it must end with your mind"
This sounds like the perfect bar song.
Man it is. We listened to that Song before Soccer-Games in Frankfurt/Germany. Those Hooligans are the most Funny Guys in Germany
@whatever Interesting. By any chance, have you been to a Dropkick Murphys concert?
In the past 20 year several Times on Festivals
This would be a really unique as a
metal cover 🤭
Unions are shit the pensions are shit
and then all the unions wanted more..they got greedy..and no longer had the worker in mind only dollar signs!!! Fiery red turned to money green!!! The fate of American unions is now in the hands of the greedy...The worker put down again and again as it was before it is now!! We must fight but never turn to the almighty dollar the paper we fight for could be our undoing! To protect American families we work for the dollor but never for personal gain!
Dude, get out.
This guy has it figured out.
BOOM... This shit right here.. truer words have never been spoken.. unions don't give a fuck about their people anymore. they only care about sucking politicians dicks to keep themselves rich.. the unions are just as bad as the companies now.. and the working people just get fucked dp style.
There is power in a union
Man I'll tell ya, they don't like our kind.
Though it starts with a fist it must end with your mind!
This song played at the end of the series finale of Brotherhood. Perfect!
tremendo temazo conchesumadre
One of the greatest punk albums Ever the first one I bought the music makes me proud to be Irish... As if I needed another reason
to the unions!!!!! keep america strong!!!!!!
USW Local 5890.
Fuck yeah Boston! Yankees Suck!
Fuck you go Yankees
Lyrics:
Say hey Johnny boy, the battle call.
United we stand, divided we fall.
Together we are what we can't be alone,
We came to this country, you made it our home.
This man so humble, this man so brave.
A legend to many, he fought to his grave.
Saved family and friends from the hardship and horror,
in a land of depression he gave hope for tomorrow.
Say Johnny me boy, this ones for you.
With the strength of many and the courage of few.
To what do we owe this man who's fight
was for the masses, he gave his life.
Say hey Johnny boy, the battle call
United we stand, divided we fall.
Together we are what we can't be alone,
We came to this country, you made it our home.
A friend to the locals who dabbled in crime.
He'd give you a job and he'd give you his time.
He wasn't a crook, but he couldn't be conned.
John knew the difference between right and wrong.
Say Johnny me boy, you live no longer,
Others forgotten, your memory's stronger.
Lets drink to the causes in your life:
Your family, your friends, the union, your wife.
Say hey Johnny boy, the battle call.

Thaiger you da real mvp
That line though. " Lets drink to the causes in your life: Your family, your friends, the union, your wife."
