Drill, Ye Tarriers, Drill

Album: Cisco Houston Sings American Folk Songs Durasi: 2:35
[00:06.14]Early in the morning at seven o'clock
[00:10.38]There are twenty tarriers drilling at the rock
[00:12.94]The boss comes around and he says, "Keep still,
[00:16.41]Come down heavy on your cast iron drill.
[00:19.77]And drill, ye tarriers, drill"
[00:26.22]Well you work all day for the sugar in your tay
[00:29.82]Down beyond the railway
[00:32.94]And drill, ye tarriers, drill
[00:35.97]And blast, and fire.
[00:42.27]Now our new foreman was Jim McCann
[00:45.19]By golly, he was a blinkin' man
[00:48.38]Last week a premature blast went off
[00:51.02]And a mile in the sky went big Jim Goff.
[00:54.12]And drill, ye tarriers, drill
[01:00.38]Well you work all day for the sugar in your tay
[01:03.48]Down beyond the railway
[01:06.30]And drill, ye tarriers, drill
[01:09.80]And blast, and fire.
[01:15.06]And when next payday came around
[01:17.33]Jim Goff a dollar short was found
[01:20.56]When asked the reason came this reply
[01:23.12]"You were docked for the time you were up in the sky."
[01:26.85]And drill, ye tarriers, drill
[01:32.65]Well you work all day for the sugar in your tay
[01:35.88]Down beyond the railway
[01:38.87]And drill, ye tarriers, drill
[01:41.56]And blast, and fire.
[01:47.57]Now the boss was a fine man down to the ground
[01:51.16]And he married a lady six feet 'round
[01:54.22]She baked good bread and she baked it well
[01:57.01]But she baked it as the holes in ...
[01:59.85]Well drill, ye tarriers, drill
[02:05.44]Well you work all day for the sugar in your tay
[02:08.68]Down beyond the railway
[02:11.55]And drill, ye tarriers, drill
[02:14.69]And blast, and fire.
[02:18.92]And drill, ye tarriers, drill
