DIRTY OLD TOWN (EN)

I found my love by the gasworks croft
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
Kissed my girl by the factory wall

REFRAIN

Dirty old town, 

dirty old town

 

I heard a siren from the docks

Saw a train set the night on fire

Smelled the spring on the smoky wind

 

REFRAIN

Dirty old town, 

Dirty old town

 
Clouds are floating across the moon
Cats are prowling upon their beat
Spring's a girl in the streets at night

REFRAIN
Dirty old town, 

Dirty old town

I'm going to make a good sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
We'll chop you down like an old dead tree

REFRAIN
Dirty old town, 

Dirty old town
