The Church of the Holy Spook Lyrics


My daddy was a sinner, but my
Mother was a saintly person
But I ruined my life by drinking, bad
Wives, taking pills and cursing
Rock and roll you crucified me
Left me all alone
I never should have turned my back on
The old folks back home
Give me that Church of the Holy Spook
Church of the Holy Spook
Church of the Holy Spook
It's good enough for me
It was good for me dear old daddy
And my dear old mammy too
Give me that Church of the Holy Spook
I don't need nothin' new
I believe in the Church of the Holy Spook
I believe that he's in me

The Tao is like a river
So float along with me
When the sacred blood of the Holy Ghost
Is boiling in my veins
I think of Jesus on the cross
And I scream out for his pain
Give me that Church of the Holy Spook
Church of the Holy Spook
Church of the Holy Spook
It's good enough for me
It was good for me dear old Daddy
And my dear old Mammy too
Give me that Church of the Holy Spook
I don't need nothin' new

Shane MacGowan (born December 25, 1957) is best known as the original singer and songwriter with The Pogues, and is considered one of the most important and poetic Irish songwriters of the last thirty years. MacGowan drew on his Irish heritage to create The Pogues, a band that he founded, but from which he was away during a long hiatus in the 1990s. Many of his songs are influenced by Irish nationalism, Irish history, the experiences of the Irish in London and in London life in general.
