Verse 1
A
E
we're building a line
Through the ranges and gorges
A
E
to the Great Nickel Mine
The long days are dusty and
It's Thief Brothers Camp
A
E
on the banks of the Stier
We're men from all nations
We curse at the things
A
E
that go wrong through the day
We vow that we'll snatch it
E
B
E
from Free River's Hotel
There's Wesley the barman
A
E
and young Irish Joe
Serving the booze and
A
E
collecting the dough
What a stir they would cause
And on the night after payday
A
E
there's fun and romance
It's a time for the families
A
E
to sing and to dance
You can let down your hair
And if you listen to the bosses
A
E
when the night's getting late
The progress they're making
A
E
is the best in the state
They'd be finished this line
E
B
E
in Three Rivers Hotel
And if you think you can drink,
A
E
we've got money to back
On stayers like Cass and
A
E
old Grady Jack
And they tell me Doc Watson
When this job is finished,
A
E
still chasing big dough
But wherever I wander,
