Pogues - Dirty Old Town lyrics

I met my love by the gas works wall<br>Dreamed a dream by the old canal<br>Kissed a girl by the factory wall<br>Dirty old town<br>Dirty old town<br>Clouds a drifting across the moon<br>Cats a prowling on their beat<br>Spring's a girl in the street at night<br>Dirty old town<br>Dirty old town<br>Heard a siren from the docks<br>Saw a train set the night on fire<br>Smelled the spring on the smoky wind<br>Dirty old town<br>Dirty old town<br>I'm going to make me a good sharp axe<br>Shining steel tempered in the fire<br>Will chop you down like an old dead tree<br>Dirty old town<br>Dirty old town
