《Mcalpine’s Fusiliers》歌词

[00:00:00] Mcalpine's Fusiliers - Donal Lunny

[00:00:00] As down the glen came McAlpine's men

[00:00:05] With their shovels slung behind them

[00:00:09] That was in the pub they drank the sub

[00:00:15] And up in the spike you'll find them

[00:00:19] They sweated blood and they washed down mud

[00:00:24] With pints and quarts of beer

[00:00:29] And now we're on the road again

[00:00:34] With McAlpine's Fusiliers

[00:00:40] I stripped to the skin with the Darky Finn

[00:00:45] Way down upon the Isle of Grain

[00:00:50] With the Horseface Toole and I knew the rule

[00:00:55] No money if you stop for rain

[00:01:00] McAlpine's god was a well filled hod

[00:01:05] Your shoulders cut to bits and seared

[00:01:10] And woe to he who looks for tea

[00:01:15] With McAlpine's Fusiliers

[00:01:21] I remember the day that the Bear O'Shea

[00:01:26] Fell into a concrete stairs

[00:01:31] What the Horseface said when he saw him dead

[00:01:36] Well it wasn't what the rich call prayers

[00:01:41] I'm a navvy short was the one retort

[00:01:46] That reached unto my ears

[00:01:51] When the going is rough well you must be tough

[00:01:56] With McAlpine's Fusiliers

[00:02:02] I've worked till the sweat has had me bet

[00:02:07] With Russian Czech and Pole

[00:02:12] On shuddering jams up in the hydro dams

[00:02:17] Or underneath the Thames in a hole

[00:02:22] I grafted hard and I've got me cards

[00:02:27] And many a gangers fist across me ears

[00:02:32] If you pride your life don't join by Christ

[00:02:37] With McAlpine's Fusiliers
