A great song from the late Pogues (without Shane).

In my opinion, The Pogues were better when MacGowan was in the band, but still a great song.

Enjoy !

How come when I got the ace of hearts
Ya always draw the ace of spades
How's it when your best friend
Brings you lillies on your birthday

Hey how come, hey how come
Well I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see
How come, how come
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me

How come when your local clergy calls
He tells me that you shouldn't wear black
What kind of bread are you gonna' bake
With that hemlock in your spice rack

Hey how come, hey how come
Well I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see
How come, how come
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me

The spider's run, the cobwebs gone
Did you eat it when the moon was new
I drowned your cat, what do you say about that
I've even broken up your broom

How come, how come
Well I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see
How come, how come
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
Well how come, how come
Well I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see
How come, how come
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me

  • @Kevinos86 yeh ! me too ...it was a wee ripper !

  • I disagree with your opinion of The Pogues being better after Shane left, but thanks for posting the song.

  • i thought my phone was ringing when u turned on this song

  • this is shit with a capital shit,check out ronnie lane. nuffin against the pogues i seen em 20 odd times, my eldest was conceived the penultimate time i seen them but i reiterate this is shite,oh yeah and i first see them in hammersmith palais as was before the irish rover and all that other dirge

  • this is shit with a capital shit,check out ronnie lane. nuffin against the pogues i seen em 20 odd times, my eldest was conceived the penultimate time i seen them but i reiterate this is shite

  • @antlerblasea the original is written by ronnie lane while he was playing with slim chance in the 70s

  • the original clip is so very good ...one of the best . Where is it ?

  • who done the origanal of this?

  • @expressionsflorist On " How come " ? Eh, I don't think so!! It's Spider, on all of the tracks, with the lovely Debsy on some of them. The late great Joe only played live with them and produced " Hell's ditch ", he never sang for them on record.

  • @OztarAntoine I too would love to see the video again as I know it does exsist somewhere
