Dirty Old Town
I found my love by the gasworks door
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
Kissed my boy by the factory wall
Dirty old town, dirty old town
Clouds are drifting across the moon
Cats are prowling on the beat
Springs a girl in the streets at night
Dirty old town, dirty old town
Hear the sirens from the dock
A train sets the night on fire
Smell the spring in the smoky wind
Dirty old town, dirty old town
I'm going to take me a good sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
Cut you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old town, dirty old town
Dirty old town, dirty old town
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
Kissed my boy by the factory wall
Dirty old town, dirty old town
Clouds are drifting across the moon
Cats are prowling on the beat
Springs a girl in the streets at night
Dirty old town, dirty old town
Hear the sirens from the dock
A train sets the night on fire
Smell the spring in the smoky wind
Dirty old town, dirty old town
I'm going to take me a good sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
Cut you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old town, dirty old town
Dirty old town, dirty old town
