|
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 town |
|
I 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 town |
|
We'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 town |
|
And 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 |
