I found my love 'neath the gasworks croft falls 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 Springs a girl from the streets at night Dirty old town, dirty old town I heard a siren from the dock Saw a train set the night on fire I smelled the spring on the smoky wind Dirty old town, dirty old town I'm going to take a good sharp axe Shining steel tempered in the fire I'll chop you down like an old dead tree Dirty old town, dirty old town |
