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
Hes drinking Coca-Cola
Down on Rain street

Bless me father I have sinned
I got p___ed 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 p___
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

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
