Oretown - The Pogues[00:00:00]
Stank night of diesel[00:00:18]
Stranger came to town[00:00:20]
A cold wind blowing[00:00:22]
And the rain pouring down[00:00:23]
Street lights flicker[00:00:25]
And the power lines moan[00:00:27]
The moon beat down[00:00:29]
On a river of bone[00:00:31]
Someone put the lights out[00:00:33]
No one make a sound[00:00:35]
You won't find a thing[00:00:36]
Down in oretown[00:00:38]
Foundry spits fire and smoke[00:00:40]
Air's foul and choking[00:00:42]
Sky full of sulphur[00:00:44]
Mountains flat and broken[00:00:46]
Black fogs and whirlwinds[00:00:48]
Thunder and rain[00:00:50]
Open drink madness[00:00:51]
And purple mad pain[00:00:53]
The circus is over[00:00:55]
Exit the clowns[00:00:57]
Nobody's laughing[00:00:59]
Down in oretown[00:01:01]
The ship's in the harbour[00:01:02]
Cargo's been pawned[00:01:04]
Barrooms spilling sailors[00:01:06]
All shipwrecked at dawn[00:01:08]
Smelling of salt and rust[00:01:10]
Uniforms torn[00:01:12]
Came looking for flowers[00:01:13]
Only found thorns[00:01:15]
Dreaming of mermaids[00:01:17]
In pearly white gowns[00:01:19]
Tain is sleeping[00:01:21]
Down in oretown[00:01:23]
There's a madman down on mainstreet[00:01:25]
Eyes all aflame[00:01:27]
Laughing in the thunder[00:01:28]
Of the number 9 train[00:01:30]
Selling old postcards in rusty frames[00:01:32]
A thousand views of oretown[00:01:36]
And they all look the same[00:01:37]
Dressed up in sandals[00:01:39]
And a barbed wire crown[00:01:41]
A lot of people loose their minds[00:01:43]
Down in oretown[00:01:45]
Lock up the lawman[00:01:47]
Let go the thief[00:01:49]
Rounding up the grey men[00:01:50]
Nail them to a tree[00:01:52]
This town was a palace[00:01:54]
This town was aglow[00:01:56]
Then the sky burned orange[00:01:58]
And the iron river flowed[00:02:00]
The night stank of diesel[00:02:01]
A stranger came to town[00:02:03]
The night folded over[00:02:05]
Down in oretown[00:02:07]
