[00:00.000]McAlpine's Fusiliers - The High Kings
[00:04.586]As down the glen came mcalpine's men
[00:08.535]With their shovels slung behind them
[00:12.824]That was in the pub they drank the sub
[00:16.764]And up in the spike you'll find them
[00:20.724]They sweated blood and they washed down mud
[00:24.703]With pints and quarts of beer
[00:28.693]And now we're on the road again
[00:32.472]With mcalpine's fusiliers
[00:36.692]I stripped to the skin with the darky finn
[00:40.792]Way down upon the isle of grain
[00:44.740]With the horseface toole and i knew the rule
[00:48.759]No money if you stop for rain
[00:52.759]Mcalpine's god was a well filled hod
[00:56.697]Your shoulders cut to bits and seared
[01:00.456]And woe to he who looks for tea
[01:04.475]With mcalpine's fusiliers
[01:16.473]I remember the day that the bear o'shea
[01:20.743]Fell into a concrete stairs
[01:24.433]What the horseface said when he saw him dead
[01:28.423]Well it wasn't what the rich call prayers
[01:32.742]I'm a navvy short was the one retort
[01:36.620]That reached unto my ears
[01:40.230]When the going is rough well you must be tough
[01:44.460]With mcalpine's fusiliers
[02:20.682]I've worked till the sweat has had me bet
[02:24.681]With russian czech and pole
[02:28.661]On shuddering jams up in the hydro dams
[02:32.639]Or underneath the thames in a hole
[02:36.579]I grafted hard and i've got me cards
[02:40.758]And many a gangers fist across me ears
[02:44.167]If you pride your life don't join by christ
[02:48.436]With mcalpine's fusiliers
[02:52.246]If you pride your life don't join by christ
[02:56.465]With mcalpine's fusiliers
