Poll question: The pipes, the pipes are callin'...
Pick yer Fave Danny Boy

Danny Boy
Darkbuster

Danny Boy was cool
All his friends thought he was funny
Until he quit school, And he ran out of money
His pops kicked him out the door, He moved to London Town

His mom said "You can do it, Danny Boy"
"If You Just Hop To It, Danny Boy"

Now he's living on the streets
Amongst the living dead
With a newspaper blanket, and a sidewalk for a bed
And Danny does'nt swim no more
He's hungry and he's cold

His mom said "You can do it, Danny Boy"
"If You Just Hop To It, Danny Boy"

Oh Danny Boy
Don't you hear the pipers calling
Down the street, and across the mountain side
Oh Danny Boy
Don't you hear the pipers calling

There saying "You can do it, Danny Boy"
"If You Just Hop To It, Danny Boy"
"You can do it, Danny Boy"

When are you coming home, Danny Boy


Danny Boy, Danny Boy
House Of Pain

Peckerwood, peckerwood, tell me your tale
Please do explain why your skin's so pale
And you're so funky, now how can that be
Like a bird in a tree on the TLP
It's the Irish intellect, no one disrespected
My shit'll get hectic real quick
This is the House Of Pain (pain)
And pain is one thing we're not
Cause we know we've got
Style and fashion, smoke some hash and
I'm smackin' up girls like cars were crashin'
Danny Boy, Danny Boy, the pipes are callin'
Thought you was a winner, ya was, now you're all in
That's right, damn skimpy, ya can't get with me
I run the whole track and leave ya three laps back
Chop seuy don't do me no good
I gotta have corn beef and cabbage, if I wanna manage
I never eat pig, but I'll fuck up a potato
I'm not a dago, but pasta's all that
My pockets stay phat, so step the fuck back
You wanna move on me, you better bring an army
I rip shit daily, ask my man Tom Baily
I'm rockin' the clock like if I was Bill Hailey
I'm cockin' my glock, and I got my shileighly
So watch your lady, because I'm

(Danny Boy!) Danny Boy
(Danny Boy!) You know it's Danny Boy
(Danny Boy!) 'S Danny Boy
(Danny Boy!) You know it's Danny Boy
(Danny Boy!) 'S Danny Boy
(Danny Boy!) You know it's Danny Boy

(Da ney Boy, Da Da ney Boy)


The sad ballad of danny boy lyrics
Floater

That's right my name is Danny Boy and I like to drink at night.
I go down to the pub, wherein I buy myself a pind or three.
I like to go out drinking, 'cause beer it is my life,
until I come home and lay eyes upon my darling wife.
And they say
Oh Danny, won't you go home earlier tonight?
Your daugher doesn't know you
and your giving us a fright when you say...
Say, something's wrong with anyone who's not lik eme.
With you the violence just comes so easily.
You never learn I have to teach you constantly.
Hush now.
That's right my name is Danny Boy and I'll buy another round.
Then off to the marked when this place closes down.
I say drinking's always done when the sun's up in the sky.
The sun is always up somwhere,
and it's your turn to buy and they say,
Oh, Danny, won't you go home earlier tonight?
Your son he doesn't know you and your giving us a fright when you say
Say, somthing's wrong with anyone who's not like me.
With you the violence just comes so easily.
You never learn I have to teach you constantly.
Hush now.
Hush now.
Sleep.
Sleep floating child.
..This is affectionate.


Danny Boy
Traditional

Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountainside

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
And if you come, when all the flowers are dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me
And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me

2. House of Pain!
I used to listen to them and Cypress Hill *all* the time for a long as time.

Good music to smoke the hell out and listen to. :D

3. I had to pick traditional, being that I'm Irish and all.
But what does peckerwood mean? Where does that come from? I've always been curious about that. And cracker. Where did the name come from? Happy New Year Mr. Scorpio! :toast: :party:

5. It's a House of Pain thing
I wish I could ask Everlast since he wrote it.

These days he's got a whole new image-thing going.
