The Pogues Rain Street [Live][*] Lyrics

The church bell rings
An old drunk sings
A young girl hocks her wedding ring
Down on rain street

Down the alley the icewagon flew
Picked up a stiff that was turning blue
The local kids were sniffin glue
f___ all else for a kid to do
Down rain street

Father mcgreer buys an ice cold beer
And a short for father loyola
Father joes got the clap again
Hes drinking coca-cola
Down on rain street

Bless me father I have sinned
I got p___ed and I got pinned
And God cant help the shape Im in
Down on rain street

Theres a tesco on the sacred ground
Where I pulled her knickers down
While st anthony gazed in awe at christ
judas took his measly price
Down on rain street

I gave my love a goodnight kiss
I tried to take a late night fix
But the toiled moved so again I missed
Down rain street

I sat on the floor and watched tv
Thanking christ for the bbc
A stupid f___ing place to be
Down rain street

My eileen took me by the hand
Walk with me was her command
I dreamt we were walking on the strand
in rain street

That night rain street went on for miles
That night on rain street somebody smiled
