One Last Goodbye “Tribute to Shane”

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Dropkick Murphys] See, my past wasn't cool and my present wasn't fun It was time to come of age, yeah, but I was on the run You brought my worlds together, shaped my future with your sound Gave meaning to the mayhem when I was beaten to the ground A poet for the ages, you told me no lies Life is a gamble and your words are the prize I leaned on your stories when life took its toll "Piss off, you wanker," you signed on my soul [Chorus: Dropkick Murphys] And we won't meet a man like you no more Now you lay there finally lifelеss So be easy and free and have onе for me With Behan, Drew, and Kelly And we won't meet a man like you no more But the sendoff sure was priceless In a million empty bottles, we cried Down goes the hero, one last goodbye [Verse 3: Dropkick Murphys] Smoke filled the air, camaraderie prevailed Sometimes we'd wait for hours, but you never failed Booze soaked the floor, we pogoed up and down You lifted us up when we couldn't go another round [Chorus: Dropkick Murphys] And we won't meet a man like you no more Now you lay there finally lifeless So be easy and free and have one for me With Joe, Sinèad, and Kirsty And we won't meet a man like you no more But the sendoff sure was priceless In a million empty bottles, we cried Down goes the hero, one last goodbye [Bridge: The Scratch] 'Sé mo laoch mo ghile mear 'Sé mo Shéasar, gile mear Suan gan séan ní bhfuair mé féin Ó chuaigh i gcéin mo ghile mear 'Sé mo laoch mo ghile mear 'Sé mo Shéasar, gile mear Suan gan séan ní bhfuair mé féin Ó chuaigh i gcéin mo ghile mear [Chorus: Dropkick Murphys] And we won't meet a man like you no more As you lay there finally lifeless So be easy and free and have one for me With Behan, Drew, and Kelly And we won't meet a man like you no more But the sendoff sure was priceless In a million empty bottles, we cried Down goes the hero, one last goodbye
