On St. Patrick's day
I've gone and lost my way
Drunk on a Boston subway
With whiskey and wine
And friends of old time
Lost somewhere on the green line
The five of us stumbling
Oh how we're wondering
Where we put our beer
Once you've drunk too much whiskey
And your vision's getting misty
Trying not to puke on the floor
chours:
When the band stops
And out come the cops
You know its the end of good times
So we say we shall
d*mn them to hell
And stumble on back to the green line
There were four of us inside
Ready for a good time
Sweet Jesus, where's number five?
We searched high and low
Where in Hell did he go?
He's certainly missing the show
With a shout and a hoot
They gave him the boot
And tossed our outside
'Tis a sign of the times
Is it really a crime
To be drunk as hell on St Paddy's Day?
chorus
And my sweetheart did cry
As I kissed her good bye
And went back out onto the street
Some words were exchanged
But nothing did change
Those b*stards didn't budge
So what could be done?
Those cops were no fun
So we walked our on home
I tell you my friend
I'd do it all again
If only the cops weren't so lame
chorus
