Original track

lyrics

There is a main drag that I used to frequent
Where the drinks are stiff and ya can get a good wench
It’s an old dusty road lined with watering holes
In a town just like this they called it Stumble Row

Drink the nights away
But they’ll never let you stay
Drink the pints away
Down Old Stumble Row

Never get enough
So to the next pub
Never feel the love
Down Old Stumble Row

Meet me for a pint
And a bloody good fight
Meet me there tonight
Down Old Stumble Row
Down Old Stumble Row

I blew into town with a relentless thirst
Me money almost spent to make things worse
Then I met an old drunk and he seemed to know
That me thirst was high, but me money was low
He gave me a sup of that old mountain dew
It worked in a pinch, but I still felt blue
I asked the old man where I should go
He lifted his finger to Stumble Row

Drink the nights away
But they’ll never let you stay
Drink the pints away
Down Old Stumble Row

Never get enough
So to the next pub
Never feel the love
Down Old Stumble Row

Meet me for a pint
And a bloody good fight
Meet me there tonight
Down Old Stumble Row
Down Old Stumble Row

Heading the direction that boney finger showed
There was light up ahead along a dusty road
With my wondrous eyes I took it all in
Pubs lined the street filled with drunken men
There were pretty colleen’s dolled up like bait
Just waiting for the drunkards it seemed like fate
There was gambling and liquor; debauchery abound
I went straight to the pub a new home I’d found

Drink the nights away
But they’ll never let you stay
Drink the pints away
Down Old Stumble Row

Never get enough
So to the next pub
Never feel the love
Down Old Stumble Row

Meet me for a pint
And a bloody good fight
Meet me there tonight
Down Old Stumble Row
Down Old Stumble Row

I wasted my nights and even my days
Pissed to the wind in a drunken rage
I was fighting and drinking and fighting some more
Down Old Stumble Row my blood did pour

Drink the nights away
But they’ll never let you stay
Drink the pints away
Down Old Stumble Row

Never get enough
So to the next pub
Never feel the love
Down Old Stumble Row

Meet me for a pint
And a bloody good fight
Meet me there tonight
Down Old Stumble Row
Down Old Stumble Row

I woke one mornin’ in the filth and the piss
Of old Stumble Row after a night of bliss
I couldn’t’ stand the sight of me own bloody face
The sin was too great I had to leave this place

Drink the nights away
But they’ll never let you stay
Drink the pints away
Down Old Stumble Row

Never get enough
So to the next pub
Never feel the love
Down Old Stumble Row

Meet me for a pint
And a bloody good fight
Meet me there tonight
Down Old Stumble Row
Down Old Stumble Row

Drink the nights away
But they’ll never let you stay
Drink the pints away
Down Old Stumble Row

Never get enough
So to the next pub
Never feel the love
Down Old Stumble Row

Meet me for a pint
And a bloody good fight
Meet me there tonight
Down Old Stumble Row
Down Old Stumble Row
Down Old Stumble Row
