the brothers four - the drillers' song lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
early one morning ’bout seven o’clock
there were sixteen terriers working on the rock
the boss came along, and he said, “keep still”
and bare down harder on the cast iron drill

[chorus]
and drill, ye terriers, drill
drill, ye terriers, drill
for it’s work all day for the sugar in your tea
down behind the railway
and drill, ye terriers, drill
and blast, and fire
[verse 2]
the new foreman was john mccann
by gosh, he was a mighty hard man
one day a premature blast went off
and a mile in the air shot big dan goff

[chorus]
now drill, ye terriеrs, drill
drill, ye terriers, drill
for it’s work all day for thе sugar in your tea
down behind the railway
and drill, ye terriers, drill
and blast, and fire

[verse 3]
when the next month’s payday came around
dan goff, a dollar short was found
he asked what for, came this reply
“you was stocked for the time you was up in the sky”

[chorus]
now drill, ye terriers, drill
drill, ye terriers, drill
for it’s work all day for the sugar in your tea
down behind the railway
and drill, ye terriers, drill
and blast, and fire
[chorus]
drill, ye terriers, drill
for it’s work all day for the sugar in your tea
down behind the railway
and drill, ye terriers, drill
and blast, and fire

[outro]
and blast
