[00:00.00] 作词 : Rr.[00:01.00] 作曲 : Rr.[00:21.26]We're all the way from Lanarkshire, we’re thirty hardy men[00:25.14]And we've crossed the bold Atlantic to the shores of Cape Breton[00:28.76]They told us there'd be honest work, there's scarce of that at home[00:32.70]But today we lay our tools down as if that coal was stone[00:36.76]As if that coal was stone[00:41.26]For Lingan we were headed, boys, and thought we had it made[00:45.33]A rich seam lay in waiting for our skilled and eager trade[00:49.34]But just before we landed, well the story it came 'round[00:52.28]That a hundred solid local men would not go underground[00:56.97]Would not go underground[01:00.30]And here we are but poor men, three thousand miles we've gone[01:03.61]But we can see, as clear as day, the right man from the wrong[01:07.61]The right man from the wrong[01:12.62]The tale was too familiar-we'd been through the same at home[01:16.37]Where a man could labour years and still be cast out on his own[01:20.31]If ever he should fall sick or be injured in the mine[01:24.00]It's as if he'd never given of his breath or of his time[01:27.88]His breath or of his time[01:30.33][01:31.08]And here we are but poor men, three thousand miles we've gone[01:34.64]But we can see, as clear as day, the right man from the wrong[01:38.59]The right man from the wrong[01:47.09][02:01.86]We'd rather make it empty-handed back across the sea[02:05.50]Than rob our Gaelic brothers in their fight for dignity[02:09.50]They say a hungry belly can cloud a man's resolve[02:13.26]But sharp as tacks, we saw our brothers' backs against the wall[02:17.21]Their backs against the wall[02:20.34]And here we are but poor men, three thousand miles we've gone[02:24.03]But we can see, as clear as day, the right man from the wrong[02:27.97]The right man from the wrong[02:30.91]Yes, here we are but poor men, three thousand miles and oh[02:34.54]We can see, as clear as day, how close we are to home[02:38.48]How close we are to home
