    Hang ‘Em High”
    Written by Dropkick Murphys
     
    We waited together for the cowards to come
    Outgunned and outnumbered but we wouldn’t run
    No mercy, no quarter
    They’ll pay for their sins
    Now lower the cannons the battle begins
     
    We waited together for the cowards to come
    Outgunned and outnumbered but we wouldn’t run
    No mercy, no quarter
    They’ll pay for their sins
    Now lower the cannons the battle begins
     

    We weighed anchor in anger, set sail for revenge
    Hoisted the canvas turned her into the wind
    We’ll hang ‘em high for justice and the whole world will see
    Now off with their heads boys and bring ‘em to me
     
    We waited together for the cowards to come
    Outgunned and outnumbered but we wouldn’t run
    No mercy, no quarter
    They’ll pay for their sins
    Now lower the cannons the battle begins
     
    We’ll rattle the sabers for the tyrants’ demise
    Feed half to sharks and the rest to the flies
    An honorable death for you would be too nice
    I’d like to savor the moment and kill you twice
     
    We waited together for the cowards to come
    Outgunned and outnumbered but we wouldn’t run
    No mercy, no quarter
    They’ll pay for their sins
    Now lower the cannons the battle begins
     
    The battle begins

  • The Fighter

    We wanted to let you guys know to be on the look out for a great new movie called "The Fighter"http://www.thefightermovie.com/ which will be in theaters starting next week. “The Fighter” is based on the life and career of our pal Micky Ward and his brother Dicky Ecklund http://dickeklund.com/. Micky is one of the greatest boxers to ever come out of Massachusetts. You may recognize him from the front cover of our album "The Warriors Code". We wrote a song about Micky with that same title and named the album in his honor. Micky has been a great supporter of the Dropkick Murphys and of our charity foundation the Claddagh Fund and has attended all of our events. He also does great work through his own charity, Team Micky Ward Charities http://teammickywardcharities.com/. Please support a great guy and terrific friend and spread the word about this movie, which by the way is awesome! Mark Wahlberg stars as Micky and Christian Bale (almost unrecognizable) as Dicky. Here’s the trailer;
