Now is time for a revolution It is time for our retribution This is the beginning of eternity The riot and the rage wake up and turn the page It's a play of no remorse and of violence of course Had no choice we hade to fight for the pride and Irish might We were not afraid we'd break them alright Gangs of New York Now the cold wind is blowing in your face Dead rabbits fight 'gainst the Bowery boys now Out in the street there's a bare knuckle fighting feast A war in the heart of New York Blood all around on the square of the battle ground Raging with knives bats and guns So come on We are the boys from Five Points United we are too strong Had no choice this is our place bring us to the amazing grace No one will back down this is our town Cradle of dust in this chaos all insects must be crushed Out in the street there's a bare knuckle fighting feast A war in the heart of New York Blood all around on the square of the battle ground Raging with knives bats and guns Out in the street there's a bare knuckle fighting feast A war in the heart of New York Blood all around on the square of the battle ground Fighting with knives bats and guns Gangs of New York Now the cold wind is blowing in your face Dead rabbits fight 'gainst the Bowery boys now Out in the street there's a bare knuckle fighting feast A war in the heart of New York Blood all around on the square of the battle ground We are forever Out in the street there's a bare knuckle fighting feast A war in the heart of New York Blood all around on the square of the battle ground Raging with knives bats and guns Oh no Gangs of New now the mob rules are written Gangs of New York
