Old Main Drag (Live At The Brixton Academy 2001) - The Pogues[00:00:00]
When I first came to London I was only sixteen[00:00:35]
With a fiver in my pocket and my ol' dancin' bag[00:00:41]
I went down to the dilly to check out the scene[00:00:47]
But I soon ended upon the old main drag[00:00:54]
There the he-males and the she-males paraded in style[00:01:00]
And the old man with the money would flash you a smile[00:01:06]
In the dark of an alley you'd work for a five[00:01:12]
For a swift one off the wrist down on the old main drag[00:01:18]
In the cold winter nights the old town it was chill[00:01:25]
But there were boys in the cafes who'd give you cheap pills[00:01:31]
If you didn't have the money you'd cajole or you'd beg[00:01:37]
There was always lots of tuinol on the old main drag[00:01:43]
One evening as I was lyin' down in Leicester Square[00:02:02]
I was picked up by the coppers and kicked in the balls[00:02:08]
Between the metal doors at Vine Street I was beaten and mauled[00:02:14]
And they ruined my good looks for the old main drag[00:02:20]
In the tube station the old ones who were on the way out[00:02:26]
Would dribble and vomit and grovel and shout[00:02:32]
And the coppers would come along and push them about[00:02:38]
And I wished I could escape from the old main drag[00:02:44]
And now I'm lyin' here I've had too much booze[00:02:51]
I've been spat on and shat on and raped and abused[00:02:57]
I know that I am dyin' and I wish I could beg[00:03:03]
For some money to take me from the old main drag[00:03:08]
