Gary Moore與Thin Lizzy

曾經參加過Skid Row 、Thin Lizzy合唱團的搖滾樂歌手、吉它手Gary Moore,2月6日在西班牙渡假時不幸去世(58歲),Thin Lizzy是一個來自愛爾蘭都伯林的搖滾樂團,1976年曾有一首得過12名的The Boys Are Back In Town,在滾石雜誌500大歌曲榜獲得499名,樂評家們投票給這首歌的原因在主唱Phil Lynott是巴西水手與他愛爾蘭母親所生,他以一個自稱壞小子的背景,唱出愛爾蘭人的心聲,但後來因吸毒去世(1986),他在愛爾蘭人的心目中留下了有如Bruce Springsteen般的地位。
The Boys Are Back In Town成功的另一個原因是Scott Gorham和Brian Robertson的雙吉它的給力,Gary Moore當時並不在團中。

THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN
Thin Lizzy

Guess who just got back today?
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think those cats are great

They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town

You know the chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean she was steaming

That night over at Johnny's place
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know, forget her

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
If the boys want to fight, you'd better let them

That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
It won't be long till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again

The boys are back in town
