Raise your Glass for the Ones That Don't Break

[Verse 1] Fields like ribs Sticking through the skin Rot in the rows Air thin as sin Ma’s last spud Cut six damn ways We licked the knife And blessed those days (hey!) [Chorus] Raise your glass for the ones who starved Sing out loud for the ones who sailed We don’t bow We don’t break We don’t ask your pardon From the empty pot to the packed-back garden We’re the hungry Ugly Laughing clan Born of the great potato famine [Verse 2] Landlord’s man Counting every stone Bible in his fist Boots on every home Ship tickets teased Like meat to a dog We stayed We swore In the choking fog (woah) [Chorus] Raise your glass for the ones who starved Sing out loud for the ones who sailed We don’t bow We don’t break We don’t ask your pardon From the empty pot to the packed-back garden We’re the hungry Ugly Laughing clan Born of the great potato famine [Bridge] To the ones in the ground To the ghosts at the bar To the kids who left And the hearts that stayed We spit in the face Of the crown and the grave We’re still here We’re still here We’re still— [Chorus] Raise your glass for the ones who starved Sing out loud for the ones who sailed (sing it!) We don’t bow We don’t break We don’t ask your pardon From the empty pot to the packed-back garden We’re the hungry Ugly Laughing clan Born of the great potato famine Born of the great potato famine (hey!)
