The Pogues - Dirty Old Town (Live with Joe Strummer) Lyrics

Lyrics Dirty Old Town (Live with Joe Strummer) - The Pogues



I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
Kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
Clouds a drifting across the moon
Cats a prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl from the streets at night
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
I heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
I smelled the smell on the smoky wind
In a dirty old town
Dirty old town
I'm going to make me a good sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll chop you down like an dead old tree
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
Kissed my girl by the factory wall
My dirty old town
Dirty old town
My dirty old town
Dirty old town
