I met my Glove, by the gas works wall
Dreamed a Cdream, by the old Gcanal
I kissed my girl, by the factory wall
Dirty old Dtown, dirty old Emtown
Clouds are Gdrifting across the moon
Cats are Cprowling on their Gbeats
Springs a girl on the streets at night
Ddirty old town, Emdirty old town
Bridge:
CFCGAm
Verse:
Heard a Gsiren from the dock
saw a Ctrain cut the night on Gfire
smelled the breeze on the smokey wind
dirty old Dtown, dirty old Emtown
I'm going to Gmake me a big sharp ax
Shining Csteel tempered in the Gfire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
dirty old Dtown, dirty old Emtown
Refrain:
I met my Glove, by the gas works wall
Dreamed a Cdream, by the old Gcanal
I kissed my girl, by the factory wall
Dirty old Dtown, dirty old Emtown
Dirty old Dtown, dirty old Emtown
