《Boxing Day》的歌詞如下:
I was the son of a gun,
Stuck on the street with my buddies and we
Huddled in alleys, with our fingers upstairs,
Gonna catch some balls that fell out of the sky.
Then, came a knock on the door,
Said it was for the festivities so free,
It was a dream that we'd been dreaming of,
But it's boxing day and we ain't getting nothing.
Chorus:
Boxing day, gonna catch a ball,
Boxing day, gonna be alright,
Boxing day, gonna catch a ball,
But I ain't gonna cry this time.
Got a couple of coins in my pocket,
Going to the store to see what I can get,
Some cheap cigars and a few beers to share,
And I'll be alright with my memories of the year.
Got a girl in my bed,
Gonna make up for all the times we were left outside,
It's a love that we've been wanting for so long,
But it's boxing day and we ain't getting nothing.
Chorus:
Boxing day, gonna catch a ball,
Boxing day, gonna be alright,
Boxing day, gonna catch a ball,
But I ain't gonna cry this time.
It's alright to feel down,
It's alright to feel alone,
But when the sun comes up tomorrow,
We'll be alright.
Verse 3:
I ain't got much in this world but my dreams,
But they're something to hold onto when it seems.
So let the music play and we'll sing in the streets,
For the people that came before us.
Chorus:
Boxing day, gonna catch a ball,
Boxing day, gonna be alright.
