Dirty Old Town Lyrics

Thanateros Dirty Old Town

I...
Met...
My...
Love...

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

Now clouds a drifting across the moon
Cats a prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl in the street 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 going to make me a good sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
Will chop you down like an old dead tree

Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Dirty old town
Dirty old town
