Dirty Old Town

Lyrics

I found my love where the gaslight falls
 Dreamed a dream by the old canal
 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 in the streets at night
 Dirty old town, dirty old town
 I heard her sigh from the decks
 Saw a train set the night on fire
 Smelled the spring on the smoky wind
 Dirty old town, dirty old town
 I'm going to take a good sharp ax
 Shining steel tempered in the fire
 We'll chop you down like an old dead tree
 Dirty old town, dirty old town
