"Sunny Side of the Street" is a track by The Pogues, from their fifth album Hell's Ditch in 1990. The song, composed by Shane MacGowan and Jem Finer, is an up-tempo celebration of an unrepentant libertine - a common theme for frontman and lyricist Macgowan. As of March 2007, the track was being used in a television commercial for Cadillac.
