Against Me Pints Of Guiness Make You Strong lyrics

PLAY Against Me! Against Me Pints Of Guiness Make You Strong video Evelyn sits by the elevator doors.

It`s been 37 years since James dies on St. Patrick`s Day in 1964,

but she could not hold it against him.

There were times when there was nothing she could do but lie in bed all day beside a picture of them together...

A picture of better days...



And just like James, I`ll be drinking Irish tonight

and the memory of his last work week wil be gone forever...

Evelyn I`m not coming home tonight,

if we`re never together

if I`m never back again

well I swear to god that I`ll love you forever

Evelyn I`m not coming home tonight...



In all the years that went by she said she`d always love him

and from the day that he died she never loved again.

In his wallet she kept in her nightstand an A.A. card and a lock of red hair.

She kept secrets of pride locked so tight in her heart

it killed a part of her before the rest was gone.

She said, "if I would have known just how things would have ended up I just would have let myself die."



And just like James, I`ll be drinking Irish tonight

and the memory of his last work week wil be gone forever...

Evelyn I`m not coming home tonight,

if we`re never together

if I`m never back again

well I swear to god that I`ll love you forever

Evelyn I`m not coming home tonight...
