|
I met a girl by the factory wall |
|
I dreamed a dream by the old canal |
|
And I kissed my girl by the factory wall |
|
Dirty old town |
|
Dirty old town |
|
Clouds adrift across the moon |
|
Cats are prowling on their beat |
|
Springs a girl from the street at night |
|
Dirty old town |
|
Another dirty old town |
|
(Hey!) |
|
I heard a siren on the dock |
|
I saw a train light the night on fire |
|
I smelled a spring on the smoky wind |
|
That dirty old town |
|
Dirty old town |
|
I'm going to build a good sharp axe |
|
Shining steel tempered in the fire |
|
And I'll cut you down like an old dead tree |
|
In that dirty old town |
|
Dirty old town |
|
In that dirty old town |
|
Dirty old town |
