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 shape 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
