Rodney's glory

Rodney's glory by Ceilí Moss
 On the day that I die, I will surely go to Hell
 For I drank a lot of pints and loved a lot of women
 But whatever may happen, I won't bow down in shame
 Won't wipe the smile off my face
 On the day that I die, I will surely fall apart
 For each time I gave myself, I did it with a true heart
 And if you think I was silly to burn my life away
 It was mine to ruin anyway
 ref.: Oh, come to me in the middle of the night
 Come to me and make it alright
 Come to me, I can't make it all alone
 Come to me, let's make it our own
 For if we give up our pride
 Sure we will fail
 Go, go, go beyond the pale
 And the day that I go there to meet the one I'm from
 And if He throws me in the lake, saying "son, you're doomed"
 He'll still be the one to feel the gloom
 On the day that I die, I'll have only one regret
 For there might be some things that I'll haven't tried yet
 But if regret is a tree, its leaves are burning red
 It won't last long 'til it's dried dead
 ref.
 On the day that I die, I will surely see you there
 All my friends and all my foes, they all will play the snare
 And whatever comes next, it might only be good
 As long as there's music and a little booze
 On this last day of mine, I don't want to see you cry
 I don't want to hear you mourn or despair or sigh
 For nothing bad can happen as long as I have faith
 As long as I don't give up my strength
 ref.
