Rain Street (with Joe Strummer) |
| 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 |
| Not much else for a kid to do |
| Down Rain Street |
| Father McGreer buys an ice cold beer |
| And a short for Father Loyola |
| Father Joe’s got the clap again |
| He’s drinking Coca-Cola |
| Down on Rain Street |
| Bless me Father I have sinned |
| I got pissed and I got pinned |
| And God can’t help the state I’m in |
| Down on Rain Street |
| There’s a Tesco on the sacred ground |
| Where I pulled her knickers down |
| While Judas took his measly price |
| And St Anthony gazed in awe at Christ |
| Down on Rain Street |
| I gave my love a goodnight kiss |
| I tried to take a late night piss |
| 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 fucking place to be |
| Down Rain Street |
| I took my Eileen by the hand |
| Walk with me was her command |
| I dreamt we were walking on the strand |
| Down Rain Street |
| That night Rain Street went on for miles |
| That night on Rain Street somebody smiled |
