G I met my love, by the gas works wall C G Dreamed a dream, by the old canal I kissed my girl, by the factory wall D Em Dirty old town, dirty old town Clouds are drifting across the moon Cats are 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 spring on the smoky wind Dirty old town, dirty old town I'm gonna make me a big sharp axe Shining steel tempered in the fire I'll chop you down like an old dead tree Dirty old town, dirty old town I met my love by the gas works wall Dreamed a dream by the old canal I kissed my girl by the factory wall Dirty old town, dirty old town D Em Dirty old town, dirty old town
