(Ewan McColl)
|
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
|
