The Dirty Glass

[Intro: Stephanie Dougherty]

Murphy, Murphy, darling dear

I long for you now night and day

Your pain was my pleasure, your sorrow my joy

I feel now I've lost you to health and good cheer

[Verse 1: Ken Casey & Stephanie Dougherty]

Darcy, when I met you I was five years too young

A boy beyond his age, or so I'd tell someone

Anyone who'd listen and a few who couldn't care

Still, I welcomed you with open arms, my love I did share

[Chorus]

Darcy, Darcy, darling dear

You left me dying, crying there

In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer

I fell for you, my darling dear

[Verse 2: Ken Casey & Stephanie Dougherty]

You shut me off and you showed me the door

But you always came crawling back, begging me for more

I'll show you kindness, a stool, and a tab

Then you poured me my pain in a dirty glass

[Verse 3: Ken Casey, Stephanie Dougherty & Al Barr]

Yeah, you left him bloody, battered, penniless, and poor

You know, I often stopped to wonder how you made it through my door

With my brother's new non-duplicate registry ID

Well, you bit off more than you could chew the first day you met me

[Chorus]

Darcy, Darcy, darling dear

You left me dying, crying there

In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer

I fell for you, my darling dear

[Verse 4: Ken Casey & Stephanie Dougherty]

You weren't the first to court me, mister, you won't be the last

Oh, I'm sure I wasn't honey, I know all about your past

Listen to the big shot with his pager on call

You spent most of those nights in my bathroom stall

[Verse 5: Ken Casey, Stephanie Dougherty & Al Barr]

Yeah, you got him high, but you left him low

Mind your own business, boy, how was I to know

That he was just a fiend and a no-good cheat?

Well, it's all in the past, bitch, 'cause now I've got it beat

[Chorus]

Darcy, Darcy, darling dear

You left me dying, crying there

In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer

I fell for you, my darling dear

[Chorus]

Darcy, Darcy, darling dear

You left me dying, crying there

In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer

I fell for you, my darling dear

[Chorus]

Darcy, Darcy, darling dear

You left me dying, crying there

In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer

I fell for you, my darling dear

[Chorus]

Darcy, Darcy, darling dear

You left me dying, crying there

In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer

I fell for you, my darling dear

[Outro]

My dear, my dear

Darcy, Darcy, my darling dear
