As down that glen came a [D] coal-coins man with a [A] shovel [E] slung [A] behind.
Was in the pub that [D] they drank their sob and up in the spike he'll find them.
[A] They sweated blood [D] and they washed down mud with pints and quarts of beer.
And now we're on the road again with [A]
[E] McAlpine's [A] fuse.
I've stripped it at skin [D] with darkie blitz [A] way down upon [E] the hill [A] of grave.
With horse-face tools [D] then I knew the rule no money if you stop for rain.
[A] McAlpine's good was [D] a well-built hood your shoulders put a fit and steered.
[A] And old Jaffee [D] went to his
[A] [E] McAlpine's fuse [A] and eared.
I remember the day [D] that the bear of day [A] fell into [E] a [A] concrete stair.
What horse-face said [D] when he saw him dead well it wasn't what the rich called rare.
[A] They could not be sure [D] was the watery part that reached onto my ears.
[A] When the fog is rough well you piss [F#m] me off with McAlpine's [B] [A] fuse.
I've worked till I sweat [D] and had a wee bet [A] with Russians.
[E] [A]
And shouldering jams up in [D] the high drawdowns or underneath the Thames in a hall.
[A] I've grafted hard [D] and I've gotten me card and many a dagger's pissed across me ear.
If [A] you're playing here like a down-jay [D] you ain't got what
[E] McAlpine's give [A] or gave.
