I met my love by the gas works craft
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my boy 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 boy from the streets at night
It's a dirty old town, dirty old town
I heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
And I smelled the spring on the smoky wind
Dirty old town, dirty old town
I'm gonna make me 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
