Cover art for The Dirty Glass lyrics by Dropkick Murphys

I never saw this as a simple story about the guy (Murphy) falling for the barmaid (Darcy). The barmaid symbolizes alcohol. Murphy starts drinking at a young age and he develops a problem with it. Drinking gets the best of him for a long time but he finally gets a grip on it and gets his problem under control.
