I met my love by the gas works wall, Dreamed a dream by the old canal

G
Clouds are drifting across the moon
C
Cats are prowling on their beats
Springs a girl on the streets at night
D Em
dirty old town, dirty old town
G
Heard a siren from the dock
C
saw a train cut the night on fire
smelled the breeze on the smokey wind
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
G
I'm going to make me a big sharp axe
C
shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll cut you down like an old dead tree
D Em
dirty old town, dirty old town
G
Met my love, by the gas yard wall
C
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal
Kissed my girl, by the factory wall
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
that's all!
