[@artemisareysand9719]

Eso es todo!

[@TheOriginalWheatLoaf]

I don't know why but listening to this makes me happy. A bunch of dudes in their fifties still going strong and living their punk dream. Oi!

[@bobmarlowe3390]

They inspired me to learn bagpipes back in the 1990s.

Still on my bucket list to see them live. Huge Flogging Molly fan too. Go Irish!

[@willywhit]

Yup. Started at McGreevy's with Nick and Tim. I got backstage and hung out in that VIP room with the rugs on the ceiling at the House of Blues. What a glorious drunken Sunday

[@benvasilinda9729]

These guys have been cranking out some good tunes during this pandemic. Can’t wait to see them on their post pandemic tour.

[@BarbellThor]

[@shitwalkerog1776]

The pandemic sober and I'm still rocking to this $hit faced!!

[@malingogmurpussjvm]

Song of the year🤘........period.

[@decaudata]

Had a stroke in 2015. Lost motor control of my right side. It took four years to make fingers start to move in the right directions, and it's not perfect still, but I can definitely give a one finger salute with my right hand! So, I salute you guys, right handed! :-D

[@jipsigal]

Oh dang, did we ALL NEED THIS right now?! ❤️ Volume goes UP...

[@erikracz4162]

Great song, I’ve listened to this band since 97’, and they always were and still are, consistently good! Most respect! 👍🍻🍻🍻

[@michaelpage3422]

[@MaiFiinta]

Dropkick Murphys - Middle Finger I keep my fist raised up Full-time against the world Sometimes for the family And sometimes for the girl Yeah, you’d think I’d learn my lesson I’m a man who’s been around But I could never keep That middle finger down Well I’m still hanging on And I think that God takes care of fools I’ve broke a lot of hearts, and I’ve broke a lot of rules Yet somehow I survived With a bit of dummy luck But I can never keep that finger from sticking up I could never keep, I could never keep I could never keep my life from burning to the ground You’d think I’d learn my lesson I’m a man who’s been around But I could never keep that middle finger down I’m a grudge-holding jerk Who starts feuds with a wink A sharp-tongued S.O.B Who speaks before he thinks I’ve learned from my losses And I know when I’m wrong Still, my life’s sadder Than an old country song I could never keep, I could never keep I could never keep my life from burning to the ground You’d think I’d learn my lesson I’m a man who’s been around But I could never keep that middle finger down So if you looked at my life If you took a little peek You’d say “Good Lord, let it go man.. Just turn the other cheek” I don’t know how to let it go I just don’t know how to behave I was born with this affliction And I’ll take it to the grave I could never keep, I could never keep I could never keep my life from burning to the ground You’d think I’d learn my lesson I’m a man who’s been around But I could never keep that middle finger down I could never keep, I could never keep I could never keep my life from burning to the ground You’d think I’d learn my lesson I’m a man who’s been around But I could never keep that middle finger down

[@casediedwell5094]

Well played.

[@TanteDani1]

Ah, there is always that one nice person with the lyrics-including comment - thanks a lot! ✌🏼🙂

[@kornfreak78]

Such a fantastic song! I had to smile while listening to this because I remember as a kid.. I had a fascination with flipping the bird.. lol... all these years later.. I'm pretty much the same damn way! As the song says, I could never keep that middle finger down!

[@THEMHGIII]

Okay then, at 62 the story of my life sung by the best band ever to never apologise for being true to who they are. I regret nothing!

[@noamfinnegan8663]

It couldn't be any other way, we gave what we got and they didn't like it. Fuck'em 🖕 Much love from Ireland 🇮🇪💚🇺🇸 May you flourish in the breathtaking-awe of all that you've touched, loved and saw. 🍀☘️🍀☘️☘️ I'll take mine down when they do.✊ 😉

[@pierrelerminiau7847]
