Dirty Old Town

I Met my love, by the gas yard 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 dock saw a train cut the night on fire smelled the breeze on the smokey wind dirty old town, dirty old town I'm going to make a big sharp axe shining steel tempered in the fire I'll chop you down like an old dead tree dirty old town, dirty old town Clouds are drifting on the street Cats are prowling on their beat Springs a girl on the streets at night dirty old town, dirty old town I Met my love, by the gas yard wall Dreamed a dream, by the old canal I Kissed my girl, by the factory wall Dirty old town, dirty old town
