Dirty old town
The Pogues
I met my lGove, by the gas works wall
Dreamed a Cdream, by the old cGanal
I kissed my girl, by the factory wall
Dirty old tDown, dirty old tEmown
Clouds are driGfting across the moon
Cats are prCowling on their beGats
Springs a girl from the streets at night
Dirty old tDown, dirty old tEmown
F F F F A# A# F F F F F F C C Dm
I heard a Gsiren from the dock
Saw a trCain set the night on fGire
I smelled the spring on the smokey wind
Dirty old tDown, dirty old Emtown
I'm going to Gmake me a big sharp axe
Shining sCteel tempered in the fGire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old tDown, dirty old tEmown
I met my lGove, by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dCream, by the old cGanal
I kissed my girl, by the factory wall
Dirty old Dtown, dirty old tEmown
Dirty old tDown, dirty old Emtown
