Wheel Of Misfortune

Dropkick Murphys · Gang's All Here [1999]

Cowboys and coppers verse Injuns and robbers

Take a guess for which side I was prone

Maniacal pleasures and a taste for misfortune

The legacy for which I was known



Down and out, I scream and I shout

For this man from whom I need my advice

If the price is your life son, you'd better think twice

As you march to the front like a soldier



So you'd think I'd aspire for greatness

Hell bent to make a name on my own

Genetically programmed for the wheel of misfortune

I'm an heir to an unwanted throne



Now they've all got their theories, opinions and such

About this man who is down on his luck

Well the offers are plenty, my options are many

Still I opt to face my problems alone



Down and out, I scream and I shout

For this man from whom I need my advice

If the price is your life son, you'd better think twice

As you march to the front like a soldier



So you'd think I'd aspire for greatness

Hell bent to make a name on my own

Genetically programmed for the wheel of misfortune

I'm an heir to an unwanted throne



Cowboys and coppers verse Injuns and robbers

Take a guess for which side I was prone

Maniacal pleasures and a taste for misfortune

The legacy for which I was known



Down and out, I scream and I shout

For this man from whom I need my advice

If the price is your life son, you'd better think twice

As you march to the front like a soldier



Down and out, I scream and I shout

For this man from whom I need my advice

If the price is your life son, you'd better think twice

As you march to the front like a soldier
