Dirty Old Town

Found my love by the gaswork croft

Dreamed a dream by the old canal

Kissed my girl by the factory wall

Dirty old town, dirty old townI heard a siren from the dock

Saw a train set the night on fire

Smelled the spring on the sulfured wind

Dirty old town, whoa oh, dirty old townWe're goin' to take a good sharp axe

Shining steel tempered in the fire

And we'll chop you down like an old dead tree

Dirty old town, dirty old town

Dirty old town, whoa oh, dirty old townAnd oh we'll chop you down

Oh, dirty, dirty, dirty old town

Dirty old town, dirty old town

And oh whoa oh dirty old town

Chop you down one of these days
