The Pogues

The Pogues are a Celtic punk band from London, formed in 1982 and fronted by Shane MacGowan. The band reached international prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. MacGowan left the band in 1991 due to drinking problems but the band continued first with Joe Strummer and then with Spider Stacy on vocals before breaking up in 1996. The band reformed in 2001, and has been playing regularly ever since, most notably on the US East Coast around St Patrick's Day and across the UK and Ireland every December. The group has yet to record any new music and, according to Spider Stacy on Pogues.com, has no inclination to do so. more »

Give me some Afro-Cuban be-bop some snazzy clothes
I have a man to remember not to take no overdose
Life's finest things oh New York and fancy drinks

Give me some Afro-Cuban be-bop the house just wants to rock
Looking for a partner around the world and 'round the block
Love written on the handle and all the tires look good
She's made of Detroit metal and you know you should

Afro-Cuban be-bop some snazzy clothes
I have a man to remember not to take no overdose
Life's finest thing oh New York and fancy drinks

Oh Afro-Cuban be-bop the house just wants to rock
Looking for a partner around the world and 'round the block
Love's written on the handle and all the tires look good
She's made of Detroit metal and you know you should

Afro-Cuban be-bop the house just wants to rock
Looking for that partner around the world and 'round the block

Afro-Cuban be-bop some snazzy clothes
I have a man to remember not to take no overdose
Life's finest things oh New York and fancy drinks

Oh some Afro-Cuban be-bop the house just wants to rock
Looking for that partner around the world and 'round the block
Love written on the handle and all the tires look good
She's made of Detroit metal and you know you should

Afro-Cuban be-bop around the world and 'round the block
Afro cuban be-bop around the world and 'round the block
Oh love written on the handle and all the tires look good
She's made of Detroit metal and you know you should

Afro-Cuban be-bop around the world and 'round the block
Afro-Cuban be-bop the house just wants to rock
