Seven Nations - Crooked Jack Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Come on Irishmen both young and old
  • With adventure in your soul
  • There are better ways to spend your days
  • Then by working down a hole
  • I was tall and true all of 6 foot 2
  • Til they broke me across my back
  • By a name I'm known that is not my own
  • For they call me crooked Jack
  • And I curse the day I went away
  • To work on those hydro dams
  • All our sweat and tears our hopes and fears
  • Bound up with shuttering jams
  • For I've seen men old before their time
  • Their faces worn and gray
  • But I never thought that I myself
  • Would soon be the self same way
  • And they say that honest toil is good
  • For the body and the soul
  • But I'll tell you boys it's for sweat and blood
  • That they want you down the hole
