[Verse]
It was Christmas DEve babe, In the Gdrunktank
An old man Dsaid to me, won't see Aanother one
And then he Dsang a song, The Rare Old GMountain Dew
I turned my Dface away And dreamed Aabout Dyou
Got on a Dlucky one Came in eighGteen to one
I've got a Dfeeling This year's for Ame and you
So happy DChristmas, I love youG baby
I can see a Dbetter time When all our dAreams come Dtrue
[Verse]
They've got Dcars
Big as Abars
They've got Bmrivers of Ggold
But the Dwind goes right through you
It's no place for the Aold
When you Dfirst took my Bmhand
On a Dcold Christmas GEve
You Dpromised me
Broadway was Awaiting for Dme
You were Dhandsome
You were pretty
Queen of New York ACity
When the Dband finished Gplaying
They Ahowled out for Dmore
DSinatra was swinging
All the drunks they were Asinging
We Dkissed on the Gcorner
Then Adanced through the Dnight
The Gboys of the NYPD Achoir
Were Dsinging 'Galway BmBay'
And the Dbells were Gringing
AOut for Christmas Dday
[Interlude]

[Verse]
DYou're a bum
You're a Apunk
You're an Bmold slut on jGunk
Living Dthere almost dead
on a drip In that Abed
You Dscum bag
You maggot
You cheap lousy Afaggot
Happy DChristmas your Garse
I pray AGod
It's our Dlast
[Chorus]
The boyGs of the NYPD Achoir
Still sDinging `Galway BmBay`
And the Dbells are Gringing
AOut for Christmas DDay
[Bridge]
I could have Dbeen someone Well, So could Ganyone
You took my Ddreams From me when I first Afound you
I kept them Dwith me babe I put them Gwith my own
Can't make it Dall alone I've built my dreams Aaround Dyou
[Chorus]
The boyGs of the NYPD Achoir
Still DSinging `Galway BmBay`
And the Dbells are Gringing
AOut for Christmas DDay
