| [00:21.26] | We're all the way from Lanarkshire, we’re thirty hardy men |
| [00:25.14] | And we've crossed the bold Atlantic to the shores of Cape Breton |
| [00:28.76] | They told us there'd be honest work, there's scarce of that at home |
| [00:32.70] | But today we lay our tools down as if that coal was stone |
| [00:36.76] | As if that coal was stone |
| [00:41.26] | For Lingan we were headed, boys, and thought we had it made |
| [00:45.33] | A rich seam lay in waiting for our skilled and eager trade |
| [00:49.34] | But just before we landed, well the story it came 'round |
| [00:52.28] | That a hundred solid local men would not go underground |
| [00:56.97] | Would not go underground |
| [01:00.30] | And here we are but poor men, three thousand miles we've gone |
| [01:03.61] | But we can see, as clear as day, the right man from the wrong |
| [01:07.61] | The right man from the wrong |
| [01:12.62] | The tale was too familiar-we'd been through the same at home |
| [01:16.37] | Where a man could labour years and still be cast out on his own |
| [01:20.31] | If ever he should fall sick or be injured in the mine |
| [01:24.00] | It's as if he'd never given of his breath or of his time |
| [01:27.88] | His breath or of his time |
| [01:30.33] | |
| [01:31.08] | And here we are but poor men, three thousand miles we've gone |
| [01:34.64] | But we can see, as clear as day, the right man from the wrong |
| [01:38.59] | The right man from the wrong |
| [01:47.09] | |
| [02:01.86] | We'd rather make it empty-handed back across the sea |
| [02:05.50] | Than rob our Gaelic brothers in their fight for dignity |
| [02:09.50] | They say a hungry belly can cloud a man's resolve |
| [02:13.26] | But sharp as tacks, we saw our brothers' backs against the wall |
| [02:17.21] | Their backs against the wall |
| [02:20.34] | And here we are but poor men, three thousand miles we've gone |
| [02:24.03] | But we can see, as clear as day, the right man from the wrong |
| [02:27.97] | The right man from the wrong |
| [02:30.91] | Yes, here we are but poor men, three thousand miles and oh |
| [02:34.54] | We can see, as clear as day, how close we are to home |
| [02:38.48] | How close we are to home |
