High on my list is....<br><br><br><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltiY-BqvOIU" target="_blank">The Pogues & Kirsty MacColl - Fairytale of New York</a><br><br><br><br>
It was Christmas Eve babe<br>
In the drunk tank<br>
An old man said to me, won't see another one<br>
And then he sang a song<br>
The Rare Old Mountain Dew<br>
I turned my face away<br>
And dreamed about you<br><br>
Got on a lucky one<br>
Came in eighteen to one<br>
I've got a feeling<br>
This year's for me and you<br>
So happy Christmas<br>
I love you baby<br>
I can see a better time<br>
When all our dreams come true<br><br>
They've got cars big as bars<br>
They've got rivers of gold<br>
But the wind goes right through you<br>
It's no place for the old<br>
When you first took my hand<br>
On a cold Christmas Eve<br>
You promised me<br>
Broadway was waiting for me<br><br>
You were handsome<br>
You were pretty<br>
Queen of New York City<br>
When the band finished playing<br>
They howled out for more<br>
Sinatra was swinging,<br>
All the drunks they were singing<br>
We kissed on a corner<br>
Then danced through the night<br><br>
The boys of the NYPD choir<br>
Were singing "Galway Bay"<br>
And the bells were ringing out<br>
For Christmas day<br><br>
You're a bum<br>
You're a punk<br>
You're an old slut on junk<br>
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed<br>
You scumbag, you maggot<br>
You cheap lousy ******<br>
Happy Christmas your arse<br>
I pray God it's our last<br><br>
I could have been someone<br>
Well so could anyone<br>
You took my dreams from me<br>
When I first found you<br>
I kept them with me babe<br>
I put them with my own<br>
Can't make it all alone<br>
I've built my dreams around you
