●Verse 1

  bCad luck just weDmaves through the cGity,

  but it's Fkeeping Caway from uGs

we move at a crawl through the traffic

and water street is humming along

with me and cecilia singing

and banging on the dashboard in time,

we sing the words on her father's gravestone

and he's there in the humid light...singing:

●Chorus

  Amdon't let the Gbastards grind you down... (3x)

●Verse 2 (same as verse 1)

good luck's in town for the weekend

so we stumble around until dawn

daylight just melts through the narrows

and those morning birds are humming along

with me and cecilia singing

and stamping on the asphalt to prove

we are the children of strength and of vigor

we were born in the morning blue...singing:

●Chorus (same as last chorus)

don't let the bastards grind you down... (3x)

●Interlude

  when you're Call, 'Jesus Murphy' and 'AGve Maria'

  and 'sAmend me the courage', and 'Flet me be delivered'

cause there's devils among us, there's devils living among us

some have not got their teeth up, and some are ashes and near-dust

and they're riding the freeways, and they're locking their front door at dusk

and they're raising their families, and they're raising their fingers at us

but this is a good town, this here is a heavy ancient thing

this is a new land, this here is a thing they'll never see

when they're all 'Jesus Murphy' and 'Ave Maria'

and 'send me the courage', and 'let me be delivered'

but

  Amdon't let the Gbastards grind you down (4x)

●Outro

  Cbad luck just Dmweaves through theG city

  but it's Fkeeping aCway from uGs.
