jason greene - a thousand to one lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the life of a man has no meaning when one thousand join in a cause
he wasn’t one of their own, and his wages were counted as loss
by those who rode the express from burke to the sullivan mill
to blow up the ore concentrator and find their place on “the hill”

[verse 2]
those who knew him so well must share in a part of the blame
for letting him slip past the union and work without riding the train
well he worked and he earned all their wagеs, so maybe this death he dеserved
or maybe for feeding his family, a privilege for members reserved

[verse 3]
could you hear the common folk shouting their approval for what had been done
the odds against any compassion for him would be worse than a thousand to one
