歌词
I met my love by the factory wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
And I kissed my girl by the gasworks wall
Oh, it's a dirty old town
It's a dirty old town
I heard a siren coming from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
And I smelled the spring on the smoky wind
Oh, it's a dirty old town
It's a dirty old town
Those clouds are drifting across the room
Cats are purring way on their beam
And there springs a girl from the streets at night
It's a dirty old town
It's a dirty old town
I'm going to make me a big sharp axe
With shining steel tempered in the fire
And I'll chop you down like an old oak tree
Oh, it's a dirty old town
It's a dirty old town
I met my love by the factory wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
And I kissed my girl by the gasworks wall
Oh, it's a dirty old town
It's a dirty old town
