Dirty Old Town
	Ewan MacColl. Scheduled for an upcoming Darby CD.
		notes: There has been lots of debate regarding what this song is about, and which town. According to Ewan, it's Anytown. (Specifically: Dublin, Ireland. The "fine, sharp axe" were the bulldozers that tore down Monto Town to clear the area for renovation).
			Dirty Old Town Ewan MacColl                G I met my love by the factory wall                     C I dreamed a dream by the Old Canal                G I kissed a girl by the gasworks wall                D                        Em Dirty old town – dirty old town Clouds are drifting across the sky Cats are prowling along their beat There springs a girl in the street at night Dirty old town – dirty old town Heard a siren from the docks Saw a train set the night on fire Smelled the spring in the smokey wind Dirty old town – dirty old town I’m gonna take a fine, sharp axe Shinin’ steel, tempered in the fire And I’ll cut you down like an old, dead tree Dirty old town – dirty old town I met my love by the factory wall I dreamed a dream by the Old Canal I kissed a girl by the gasworks wall Dirty old town – dirty old town Dirty old town – dirty old town
