Lyrics
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.
Clouds are drifting across the moon,
cats are prowling on their beat.
Spring's a girl from the streets at night.
Dirty old town,
dirty old town.
I Heard a siren from the docks,
saw a train set the night on fire.
I Smelled the spring on the smoky wind.
Dirty old town,
dirty old town.
I'm gonna make me 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.
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
