Dirty Old Town

I met my love by the gas works wall Dreamed a dream by the old canal I kissed my girl by the factory wall Dirty old town, dirty old town I heard a siren from the docks Saw a train set the night on fire I smelled the breeze on the smoky wind Dirty old town, dirty old town Clouds are drifting across the streets Cats are prowling on their beat Spring's a girl on the streets at night Dirty old town, dirty old town I'm going to make me a big sharp axe - axe! Shining steel tempered in the fire I'll cut you down like an old dead tree Dirty old town, dirty old town I met my love by the gas works wall Dreamed a dream by the old canal I kissed my girl by the factory wall Dirty old town, dirty old town Dirty old town, dirty old town (16x)
