lyrics

I was born in the year of the monkey
A wandering soul meant forever to roam
And I like spending time with the drunks and the junkies
That hang around here while the rest have gone home

I've cursed all the nations and drunk with relations
I can count all my heroes on one hand or two
Like me they were born and they lived and they died here
And you never forget them when their life is through

(Chorus)
And we all battle hard and we run for the roses
And we leave this life with broken hearts and broken noses
And it's sad for me to think I'm all alone
So I'll see you soon on the old rebel road

Here's to Ohio, the deltas, the bayous
And let's not forget about old Boston town
New York is cold and the weather is shitty
But Finn takes me home with the Rose and the Crown

(Chorus)

I'm going home, boys home
To the girl I love who's waiting all alone
I'm going home, boys home
For this trip has nearly killed me and no more I'll fuckin' roam! That's right!

Favoured by the Gods in the backrooms and locals
I've gambled on the odds with the bookies I knew
This road's filled with winners, the saints and the sinners
And when I've lost it all I'll be back home with you

(Chorus)

about

The Peelers Montreal, Québec

Now based in Montreal, The Peelers were formed in 1999 in North Glengarry. They immersed themselves in a hotbed of Gaelic culture that smashed head on into a love of whiskey, poetry, footy, debauchery, ska and punk. They don’t just bend the rules of tradition with their blend of aggro & trad Irish - these long ball merchants tear it to pieces. ... more
