[00:00:00] Written by：The Rumjacks

[00:00:07] As down the glen came Mcalpines men with their shovels slung behind them

[00:00:14] Twas in the pub that drank the sub

[00:00:18] And up on the spike you'll find them

[00:00:22] They sweated blood and they washed down mud with pints and quarts of beer

[00:00:29] And now we're on the road again with mcalpine's fusiliers

[00:00:36] I stripped to the skin with darkie Flynn way down upon the isle of grain

[00:00:44] With that horsed face o'toole sure we knew the rule

[00:00:47] No money if you stopped for rain

[00:00:51] Mcalpine's god was a well filled hod

[00:00:55] Your shoulders cut to bits and seared

[00:00:59] And woe to he who looked for tea with mcalpine's fusiliers

[00:01:36] I remember the day that bear o'shea fell into a concrete stairs

[00:01:44] What horse face said when he saw him dead

[00:01:47] It wasn't what the rich called prayers

[00:01:51] I'm a navvy short was the one retort that reached unto my ears

[00:01:59] When the going's rough sure you must be tough with mcalpine's fusiliers

[00:02:06] I've worked till the sweat nearly had me bet with Russian Czech and Pole

[00:02:14] On shuddering jams up the hydro dams or underneath the Thames in a hole

[00:02:21] I've grabbed it hard

[00:02:23] And I've got me cards and many a ganger's fist across me ears

[00:02:28] If you pride your life don't join by Christ with mcalpine's fusiliers

[00:02:36] If you pride your life don't join by Christ with mcalpine's fusiliers
