Testo Longshot - Dropkick Murphys
Testo della canzone Longshot (Dropkick Murphys), tratta dall'album For The People
Did your number come in on a long shot?
Did you bet big and sweep the pot?
Did you walk away with the glory?
Did you stand up and take your shot?
Have you seen, have you seen
Have you seen the man give up his time?
Have you seen, have you seen
Have you seen the man work for a dime?
Have you ever dreamed so big it seems
There's no chance the dream will come true?
How 'bout a wish beyond your grasp
You're all but guaranteed to lose?
But sometimes fate's a funny gal
So keep your eyes peeled for the signs
Keep the faith and keep on dreaming
'Cause there might just be a time
Have you seen, have you seen
Have you seen the man give up his time?
Have you seen, have you seen
Have you seen the man work for a dime?
Did your number come in on a long shot
Did you bet big and sweep the pot?
Did you walk away with the glory?
Did you stand up and take your shot?
Did karma do you justice
When you're down and out and lost?
Did the shamrock on your shoulder
Bring good fortune and pay off?
'Cause people like you and I
Were never meant to achieve our dreams
We're conditioned to settle for something
Something much less than it seems
So be careful what you wish for
'Cause some dreams are meant to come true
But the dreams you thought that you wanted and needed
Are custom fit for a fool
Have you seen, have you seen
Have you seen the man give up his time?
Have you seen, have you seen
Have you seen the man work for a dime?
Did your number come in on a long shot?
Did you bet big and sweep the pot?
Did you walk away with the glory?
Did you stand up and take your shot?
Did karma do you justice
When you're down and out and lost?
Did the shamrock on your shoulder
Bring good fortune and pay off?
Have you seen, have you seen
Have you seen, have you seen
They said it was all disappointing
You'll never make a good name for yourself
Been that same look on all your faces
As you laugh me out of the room
It's changing the hands that you're dealt
Something any of us can achieve
When you sit back and listen to liars that steal
The chance is you're gonna believe
But people like you and I
Were never meant to achieve our dreams
We're conditioned to settle for something
Something much less than it seems
So be careful what you wish for
'Cause some dreams are meant to come true
But the dreams you thought that you wanted and needed
Are custom fit for a fool
Did your number come in on a long shot?
Did you bet big and sweep the pot?
Did you walk away with the glory?
Did you stand up and take your shot?
Did karma do you justice
When you're down and out and lost?
Did the shamrock on your shoulder
Bring good fortune and pay off?
Did your number come in on a long shot?
Did you bet big and sweep the pot?
Did you walk away with the glory?
Did you stand up and take your shot?
Did karma do you justice
When you're down and out and lost?
Did the shamrock on your shoulder
Bring good fortune and pay off?
