Working on the railway
I was wearing corduroy britches
Digging ditches, pulling switches
Dodging hitches
I was working on the railway
In 1843 I broke me shovel across me knee
And I went to work for a company
On the Leeds and Selby Railway
I was wearing corner -eyed breeches
Digging ditches, pulling switches,
dodging hitches
