Dropkick Murphys - End Of The Night Lyrics






The ember of the fire is starting to fade
But it's now that I'm at my best
Give the angel on my shoulder
A break for the night
'Cause the devil ain't getting no rest
I've got thousands of stories
You've heard them before
Yet I'll tell them again and again
Come on, pull up a stool now
And buy me a drink
And please think of me as a friend

We'll live for the weekend
Each city's the same
There's a bar on the corner
Where they don't know your name
There's plenty of drink
They've been saving your chair
It's our second home
We ain't going nowhere

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

This life it ain't easy
Still we've managed to win
There's times we've been knocked down
Yeah, we've led with our chin
We're generous guys

With our hearts on our sleeves
Misunderstood, though the boss disagrees
We can't catch a break
Wrote the book on bad luck
We'd hold down a job if they didn't all suck

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

The bartender's spoken
And he's made it clear
If you ain't going home
Then you ain't staying here
You can't shut us off
And you won't turn us down
There's plenty of joints who'll be grateful
To have us around

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

You've beaten me black
And you've beaten me blue
The scars are well worn on my face
I've packed up the bags
And I've sulked off in shame
For one last walk of disgrace

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

It's the end
End of the night
But we ain't goin' home

  21. P.... D....

    I recently discovered these guys, and damn they rock!!!

    P.... D....

    @Paulette Driedger Not to sound like an old twat or anything, but I love that.....'Kiss Me I'm Shitfaced' was my 2005-2007 anthem.

    P.... D....

    Paulette Driedger
    Welcome to the family!!!!!

  22. G.... S....

    Once again they nail the sweet spot.

  23. M.... ....

    Is this an original?

    M.... ....

    Oh yes, it is. The Dropkick Murphys have that way with music where they can make an original song sound classic like it's been around for decades

  24. J.... G....

    Saw them last week for the 2nd time and will see them anytime I can !!! This song is great with all the ladies up on stage !!

  25. s.... ....

    un putain de titre punk rock, quel voix j adhere comme toujours aux dropkick murphys

  26. B.... R....

    Fuckin great song!

  27. B.... D....

    the best album of Dropkick Murphys ! :)

  28. s.... ....

    This album is freaking amazing, nuff said

  29. e.... ....

    It sounds just like The Season's Upon Us...but good anyway!

  30. J.... G....

    Played this at the Sherman the other night, greatest concert ever

  31. G.... s....

    You may checkout on FaceBook the page HDartisan

  32. G.... ....

    youtube doesn't, the record companies send their complaints to youtube so youtube has to pass it along or face charges, you get submit disputes to get it back a couple times, then they issue takedown. then its gets legal to get the videos back so its pretty much done after that, that's how i lost the boys are back. luckily all the other tracks seem to have slipped under their radar for now.

  33. G.... ....

    yeah I just lost the boys are back yesterday :(

  34. D.... N....


    My DKM my chargings started being deleted already.
    FUCK WMG!

  35. G.... P....

    Bellisimo...

  36. B.... L....

    this song is an anthem!!!

  37. T.... ....

    Lol they probably saw this conversation and changed it back :P

  38. T.... ....

    It did in Austin and most of the European shows.

  39. T.... ....

    I can respect that opinion! It's not even like the other 2 I said were all that bad, just not as good as other DKM songs :)

  40. d.... c....

    no DKM song sucks

  41. T.... ....

    No, and Shipping up to Boston sucks too!

  42. T.... ....

    No. Skinhead on the MBTA = best crowd song.

  43. T.... ....

    If what TrojanChris said is right, and this replaced Kiss Me, then I am a very, very sad fan. Kiss Me was always pretty much the best crowd song of the night.

  44. T.... ....

    Eh, you and I have different definitions of the word "classic" then. I tend to prefer their first three albums but I really do like most of their music since then, Signed and Sealed was awesome, and even better when I saw the songs last week!

  45. T.... ....

    Just my opinion, but heres how: It drags on forever. The lyrics are stupid. It wouldn't be ALL that bad, but it becomes like the bands 2nd most popular song and I'm tired of hearing it. Hate when a great group gets know for shitty stuff. Most people I talk to who were fans of the band in their old days agree with me, but to each their own! I still love the band but I'd prefer to listen to something like "Never Alone", or even a different Blackout song like "As One" or "Buried Alive".

  46. d.... ....

    Singing this with my buddies swinging the drinks back and forth

  47. d.... c....

    that song is my favorite how is it terrible?

  48. W.... S....

    so tempted to itunes this album, but its so good i want the real thing

  49. R.... H....

    that song was cool. When I saw them live, they had all the women on stage singing, too bad I wasn't one. I was brawling with everyone in the mosh pit haha.

  50. S.... B....

    Whaaa? That song is a classic.

  51. N.... R....

    This song is great !!! .. when it'S 5h24 in the morning !!! ...

    And you're the only fucker who want too stay in the party when everyone else !!! .... going to sleep !! ...


    You're alone ... at home !!! ... wanting to party .. all night long !!! .. and all the morning !! .. but this feeling .... is what this song tell! ...

    If you dont understand that .. and you're over 15 YO .... you will NEVER feel this feeling ! :(
    Sorry .. but i think many will understand what i say.i'm not alone here !!

  52. G.... ....

    I love that song lol

  53. T.... ....

    This has apparently replaced "Kiss Me I'm Shitfaced" in the live setting. Thank god, that song was terrible!

  54. m.... m....

    Fuck off,it's amazing.
