Orac	Help: Dirty Old Town? Meaning??? (MacColl) (406* d)	RE: Help: Dirty Old Town? Meaning???	26 Jun 02
I've nerver heard anyone sing anything but "I met my love by the Gasworks Croft" for the first line ... anything else is just plain wrong. ... paints a pretty good picture of what used to be a pretty awful place to try to court a girl. James Miller, who wrote it, obviously was ashamed of his childhood in Salford as he adopted the name Ewan MacColl and pretended to have a Scottish accent.
