dublin blues

well, i wished i was in austin, mmm, in the chili parlor bar, drinkin' mad dog margaritas, and not carin' where you are, but here i sit in dublin, mmm, just rollin' cigarettes, holdin' back and chokin' back, the shakes with every breath, so forgive me all my anger, forgive me all my faults, there's no need to forgive me, for thinkin' what i thought, i loved you from the get go, and i'll love you till i die, i loved you on the spanish steps, the day you said goodbye, i am just a poor boy, mmm, work's my middle name, if money was a reason, well, i would not be the same, i'll stand up and be counted, mmm, i'll face up to the truth, i'll walk away from trouble, but i can't walk away from you, so forgive me all my anger, forgive me all my faults, there's no need to forgive me, for thinkin' what i thought, i loved you from the get go, and i'll love you till i die, i loved you on the spanish steps, the day you said goodbye, i have been to fort worth, mmm, and i have been to spain, and i have been too proud, to come in out of the rain, and i have seen the david, mmm, i've seen the mona lisa too, and i have heard doc watson, play columbus stockade blues, forgive me all my anger, forgive me all my faults, there's no need to forgive me, for thinkin' what i thought, i loved you from the get go, and i'll love you till i die, i loved you on the spanish steps, the day you said goodbye, well, i wished i was in austin, mmm, in the chili parlor bar, drinkin' mad dog margaritas, and not carin' where you are
