Текст с Bandcamp’а:
“At the top of Tolentine Hill,
sat McGovern’s Bar & Grill.
Beneath the L on Avenue Jerome,
is where Mom and Pop made their home.
Every Sunday, my Dad tended bar.
I’d wander the streets, but never too far.
Dropped dimes in the jukebox, played Black Velvet Band,
and listened to tales of old Ireland.
Under the watchful eyes of the wise owl,
They’d wipe up spilled beer with a rancid bar towel.
Sawdust on the floor would soak up sloshed beer.
And singing Danny Boy would oft raise a tear.
While on the bar sat a can for Nor-Aide,
not to buy books, but guns and grenade.
My pint of black stuff was really just Coke,
all the old men laughed, it was a fine joke.
And as soon as night fell and all was dark,
my uncle smoked fags across the street in the park.
At the end of the day, we’d dine up above,
on pot roast, mash and grandmother’s love.
