St. Patrick’s Day Jam: Dropkick Murphys - Cadence to Arms / Do or Die

It’s not a rebel cry of some socialist scheme
Music • Views: 23,074

The once steel tough fabric of the union man
Was sold and bartered away
Fed to money wolves in the Reagan years
Caught in a drift in greedy nineties days

So inside this song is our rally cry
Your dreams are in danger
And we must rise
Our time has come we are under the gun
It’s do or die

It’s not a rebel cry of some socialist scheme
To push for human rights
Just the facts and the obvious mention
On behalf of the working man
For his family and his livelihood

Your dreams are in danger
And we must rise
Our time has come we are under the gun
It’s do or die

The once steel tough fabric of the union man
Was sold and bartered away
Fed to money and wolves in the Reagan years
Caught adrift in greedy nineties days

Your dreams are in danger
And we must rise
Our time has come we are under the gun
It’s do or die

I did come across a Philly bar this morning not decked out in green!

Excellent video. It helped me decide to sneak a few Guinness onto the golf course today.

Great pick Charles.

All Irish all day. Made my wife a Claddagh wedding ring long ago.

I grabbed that image off Google, but no I investment/lost wax cast it. 14kt y and a nice diamond set in the heart.

OT

Is there some unwritten but observed rule here that any comment by b_sharp longer than 3 lines should be ignored?

(Feeding my paranoia day)

I made sure it was only 3 lines.

I’ve wanted to set up my CNC lathe to create wax ring forms so I can investment cast them for several years, but every time I decide to get my ass in gear, either work or something interesting on LGF demands my attention.

My time management sucks.

Ah, a little more Dropkick Murphys is always good. ;)

Well when you do let me hook you up with some samples. (Casting Investment not the gold LOL)

That would be great.

Happy Saint Patricks Day One and All!

May those that love us, love us.
And those that don’t love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if He doesn’t turn their hearts,
May He turn their ankles
So we will know them by their limping.
Slainte!

DKM — among the best live shows I’ve ever seen.

Apparently this exactly where my Irish roots were dug up to be transplanted in Wisconsin in 1855 or so.

maps.google.ie

But that’s one great-great-grandparent out of 16, so I don’t give it too much importance.

And they start with “Scotland the Brave”, epic! \m/
