Lyrics Bottle of Smoke (Live At the Brixton Academy 2001) - The Pogues
Thanks
and
praises,
thanks
to
Jesus
I
bet
on
the
bottle
of
smoke
I
went
to
hell
and
to
the
races
To
bet
on
the
bottle
of
smoke
The
day
being
clear,
the
sky
being
bright
He
came
up
on
the
left
like
a
streak
of
light
Like
a
drunken
fuck
on
a
Saturday
night
Up
came
the
bottle
of
smoke
Twenty
fucking
five
to
one
Me
gambling
days
are
done
I
bet
on
a
horse
called
the
′Bottle
Of
Smoke'
And
my
horse
won
Stewards
inquiries,
swift
and
fiery
I
had
the
bottle
of
smoke
Inquisitions
and
suppositions
I
had
the
bottle
of
smoke
Fuck
the
stewards
a
trip
to
Lourdes
Might
give
the
old
fuckers
the
power
of
sight
Screaming
springers
and
stoppers
and
call
out
coppers
But
the
money
still
gleams
in
my
hand
like
a
light
Twenty
fucking
five
to
one
Me
gambling
days
are
done
I
bet
on
a
horse
called
the
′Bottle
Of
Smoke'
And
my
horse
won
Bookies
cursing,
cars
reversing
I
had
the
bottle
of
smoke
Glasses
steaming,
vessels
bursting
I
had
the
bottle
of
smoke
Slip
a
fifty
to
the
wife
And
for
each
brat
a
crisp
new
five
To
give
me
a
break
on
a
Saturday
night
When
I
had
the
bottle
of
smoke
Twenty
fucking
five
to
one
Me
gambling
days
are
done
I
bet
on
a
horse
called
the
'Bottle
Of
Smoke′
And
my
horse
won
Priests
and
maidens
drunk
as
pagans
They
had
the
bottle
of
smoke
Sins
forgiven
and
celebrations
They
had
the
bottle
of
smoke
Fuck
the
yanks
and
drink
their
wives
The
moon
is
clear,
the
sky
is
bright
I′m
happy
as
the
horse's
site
Up
came
the
bottle
of
smoke
Twenty
fucking
five
to
one
Me
gambling
days
are
done
I
bet
on
a
horse
called
the
′Bottle
Of
Smoke'
And
my
horse
won
Come
on
you
bastards
Thanks
and
praises,
thanks
to
Jesus
I
bet
on
the
bottle
of
smoke
I
went
to
hell
and
to
the

To
bet
on
the
bottle
of

The
