Dirty Water lyrics

spoken:)
I`m gonna tell you a story
I`m gonna tell you about my town
I`m gonna tell you a big bad story, baby
Aww, it`s all about my town

Yeah, down by the river
Down by the banks of the river Charles (aw, that`s what`s happenin` baby)
That`s where you`ll find me
Along with lovers, fuggers, and thieves (aw, but they`re cool people)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you`re my home (oh, you`re the Number One place)
Frustrated women (I mean they`re frustrated)
Have to be in by twelve o`clock (oh, that`s a shame)
But I`m wishin` and a-hopin, oh
That just once those doors weren`t locked (I like to save time for
my baby to walk around)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you`re my home (oh, yeah)

Because I love that dirty water
Oh, oh, Boston, you`re my home (oh, yeah)

Well, I love that dirty water (I love it, baby)
I love that dirty water (I love Baw-stun)
I love that dirty water (Have you heard about the Strangler?)
I love that dirty water (I`m the man, I`m the man)
I love that dirty water (Owww!)
I love that dirty water (Come on, come on) [fade
