Terry Obradaigh - The Tossers

I grew up in Dublin Town

I fought my way out round by round with Shane Brown

Coke and smack dangerous boys

The corner girls they used as toys

Our Maggie’s as Dublin as could be

She stepped into these filthy streets, stepped toward me

To turn her eye I pushed and shoved

On Eden Quay we fell in love

My Da says I live in a dream, and last night where I lay

It was Maggie that I seen in America far away

So I climbed up into that ring and I did not go down

13 wins and 12 knockouts, and the Dublin destroyers crown

I can’t hear you let me go

To find that Dublin girl I’ll go where I don’t know

Straight from here straight into hell

May god guard you, fare you well

Shane you are my best friend, my best friend for so long

There’s nothing you can take from me that ain’t already gone

No you can’t outlast me, because I have to win

I don’t know what will happen, but I can’t live this life again

So I climbed up into that ring and I did not go down

13 wins and 12 knockouts, and the Dublin destroyers crown
