Flogging Molly 06 - The Ol' Begger's Bush Lyrics

Stuck on limbo bridge. Where below me ol' Nick grins. Then laughs through the chaos of it all. Gets up off his chair. Spins a jig to my despair. He can't wait to count the times where I went wrong. Underneath the bush, lay a beggar out of luck. On his lips was a taste he forgets. His hopes were filled with sand. That he watched fall through his hand. Every grain was a liftime of regret.

(chorus) So go and bow your head and weep. For your world won't change while you sleep. Yeah, go and bow your head and weep. For the summer that was lost, now is gone. Yeah, the summer that was lost, now is gone.

Fertile Mrs. Moore had thirteen kids. But still looked good. Till her ol' man jumped leave on a ship. She never read a book. But by Christ she understood. That the meaning of life starts in bed.

(chorus)

Killer Kilbain kicked me sensless every day. I hope that b______ is beneath a head of stone. Where I'd dance upon his grave. For all the madness I now crave. While the the scars that remain are still a curse. So I'm stuck on limbo bridge. Where below me ol' Nick grins. Then laughs through the chaos of it all. Gets up off his chair. Spins a jig to my despair. He can't wait to count the times where I went wrong. Yeah he can't wait to count the times where I went wrong.
