Song language: English
St. Stephen's Day |
| I stumbled into Merrion row to listen to a tune |
| I fought my way down Grafton by the rising of the moon |
| I sat on the floor of my poxy room just me and the BBC |
| Eating bachelors beans out of the tin there’s nothing here for me |
| And a rovin' you will go |
| You are not the one she wants |
| You are just a ghost |
| From an evening haunt |
| And a rovin' you will go |
| And you wish that she would stay |
| For now your day is empty and it’s just another day |
| I put my pen to paper but there’s nothin to be said |
| I might as well be in the desert with a turban on my head |
| I could go to Trader John’s or I could shower and could shave |
| I could go on up to Wicklow and throw a rose on Ronnie’s grave |
| I drank until my bones shook and gathered all my pay |
| I stood outside the locked up bar along the bachelors quay |
| I had absolutely forgotten that it was Christmas day |
| And now there’s nothing open and there’s nothing left to say |
| And it’s only Christmas day |
| And it’s just St. Stephen’s Day |
