| [00:12.92] |
I'm heading for a life in the land of the free |
| [00:14.92] |
|
| [00:15.61] |
Sending every penny home to the family |
| [00:16.79] |
|
| [00:18.42] |
Off to find fortunes that can't be bought |
| [00:20.23] |
|
| [00:21.24] |
Now Paddy's struck down from a single shot |
| [00:23.05] |
|
| [00:24.55] |
Paddy's struck down from a single shot! |
| [00:26.48] |
|
| [00:27.54] |
They lured the men away they promised wealth and riches |
| [00:30.17] |
|
| [00:40.01] |
A thousand miles from home lying steel and digging ditches |
| [00:40.82] |
The work would be a challenge nary a soul could stand the trial |
| [00:43.94] |
|
| [00:45.13] |
These wayfaring boys built the railways toughest mile |
| [00:45.88] |
Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile! |
| [00:47.32] |
|
| [00:48.07] |
Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile |
| [00:49.07] |
|
| [00:51.44] |
Murdered for their troubles, left to die |
| [00:53.19] |
|
| [00:54.26] |
Immigrant sons from Donegal, Tyrone & Derry |
| [00:56.38] |
|
| [00:57.44] |
Their numbers were few but they did the job of many |
| [00:59.26] |
|
| [01:00.62] |
Eight weeks went by and the path was clear |
| [01:02.25] |
|
| [01:16.13] |
Fifty-seven men had all disappeared |
| [01:17.25] |
|
| [01:19.13] |
Not a mention of their name no stone was ever turned |
| [01:21.38] |
It would be so many years before the truth was ever learned |
| [01:24.32] |
Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile |
| [01:26.07] |
|
| [01:30.57] |
Murdered for their troubles, left to die |
| [01:32.51] |
|
| [01:33.69] |
Immigrant sons from Donegal, Tyrone & Derry |
| [01:35.57] |
|
| [01:36.44] |
Their numbers were few but they did the job of many |
| [01:38.81] |
|
| [01:39.56] |
Now ghosts dance a jig on an unmarked grave |
| [01:42.13] |
|
| [02:29.74] |
A slug full of lead was the price they were paid |
| [02:32.99] |
|
| [02:34.86] |
Vigilante justice, prejudice and pride |
| [02:36.05] |
|
| [02:37.55] |
No one in this valley will be seen again alive |
| [02:38.36] |
Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile |
| [02:38.55] |
Murdered for their troubles, left to die |
| [02:38.80] |
Immigrant sons from Donegal, Tyrone & Derry |
| [02:39.61] |
Their numbers were few but they did the job of many |
| [02:40.49] |
Fifty-seven men on the hardest mile |
| [02:40.67] |
Murdered for their troubles, left to die |
| [02:40.93] |
Immigrant sons from Donegal, Tyrone & Derry |
| [02:41.17] |
Their numbers were few but they did the job of many |
