What song contains the lyrics "love that dirty water"?
The Standells - Dirty Water





(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)

It hit #11 on the Top 40 in 1966. You're still likely to hear it at a Red Sox home game.

I'm wanna tell you a story
