Found my love by the gaswork croft
Dreamed a dream by the old canalkissed my girl by the factory wall

Dirty old town, dirty old towni heard a siren from the dock

Saw a train set the night on firesmelled the spring on the sulfured wind

Dirty old town, whoa-oh, dirty old townwere goin to take a good sharp axe

Shining steel tempered in the fireand well chop you down like an old dead tree

Dirty old town, dirty old towndirty old town, whoa-oh, dirty old town

And oh well chop you downoh, dirty, dirty, dirty old town

Dirty old town, dirty old townand oh whoa-oh dirty old town

Chop you down one of these days
