I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
Kissed a girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
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
Heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
Smelled the spring on the smokey wind
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
I'm going to make 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
(Ewan McColl)
SONG: Jesse James
Jesse James we understand
Has killed many a man
He robbed the Union trains
He stole from the rich and gave to the poor
He'd a hand and a heart and a brain
Well it was on a Saturday night
The stars were shining bright
They robbed the Glendale train
And the people they did say for many miles away
It was those outlaws Frank and Jesse James
Now Jesse had a wife
Lived a lady all her life
Her children they were brave
But history does record
That Bob and Charlie Ford
Have laid poor Jesse in his grave
Well it was Bob and Charlie Ford
Those dirty little cowards
I wonder how they feel
For they ate of Jesse's bread and they slept in Jesse's bed
And they laid poor Jesse in his grave
Now Jesse had a wife
Lived a lady all her life
Her children they were brave
But history does record
That Bob and Charlie Ford
Have laid poor Jesse in his grave
Well the people held their breath
When they heard of Jesse's death
They wondered how he came to fall
Well it was Robert Ford in fact who shot him in the back
While he hung a picture on the wall
Now Jesse had a wife
Lived a lady all her life
Her children they were brave
But history does record
That Bob and Charlie Ford
Have laid poor Jesse in his grave
(Trad. Arr. The Pogues)
Der musikalische text DIRTY OLD TOWN von POGUES ist auch in dem Album vorhanden Rum, sodomy & the lash (1985)
The Pogues sono una band folk punk anglo-irlandese attiva tra gli anni '80 e '90. Fondati a Londra nel 1982 da Shane MacGowan (cantante) e Jem Finer (chitarra), il gruppo ha saputo mescolare influenze tradizionali irlandesi con un sound rock energico, creando un genere unico che li ha resi iconici. Il loro stile, definito da MacGowan stesso come «musica irlandese per un giovane pubblico rock», è caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi spesso malinconici e profondi, e una forte componente di protesta sociale. Tra i brani più famosi dei Pogues ci sono "Fairytale of New York", una collaborazione con Kirsty MacColl che è diventata un classico natalizio, "A Rainy Night in Soho" e "Streams of Whiskey". L'album "Rum Sodomy and the Lash" (1985) è considerato uno dei loro lavori più importanti. Nonostante le difficoltà interne e la dipendenza di MacGowan, i Pogues hanno lasciato un segno indelebile nella musica folk punk, influenzando generazioni di artisti.
