Dirty Old Town
"Dirty Old Town" is a British song written by Ewan MacColl in 1949 that was made popular by The Dubliners and has been recorded by many others since.
==History==
The song is written about Salford, Lancashire, England, the town where MacColl was born and brought up. It was originally composed for an interlude to cover an awkward scene change in his 1949 play ''Landscape with Chimneys'', set in a North of England industrial town,〔Ewan MacColl Songbook〕 but with the growing popularity of folk music the song became a standard.
The first verse refers to the Gasworks croft, which was a piece of open land adjacent to the Gasworks , and then speaks of the old canal, which was the Manchester Bolton & Bury Canal
The song has also more recently been sung by The Pogues with a few changes to the lyrics.
