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
The Popes sono un gruppo musicale irlandese formatosi attorno alla figura di Shane MacGowan, frontman storico dei The Pogues. La band fonde elementi di rock, folk tradizionale irlandese e punk, creando un sound unico e riconoscibile. MacGowan, noto per la sua voce potente e le sue testi poetiche spesso dark, ha portato avanti il suo percorso musicale con i The Popes dopo lo scioglimento dei Pogues nel 1996. Tra i brani più rappresentativi del gruppo si ricordano "The Ballad of Shane MacGowan", "I'm a Man You Don't Want to Meet" e "The Irish Rover". Sebbene non abbiano raggiunto la stessa fama dei Pogues, The Popes hanno mantenuto una fedele base di fan grazie alla loro musica autentica e al carisma di MacGowan.
