Montreal Textile Worker Lyrics

[00:00.000]	作曲 : Hugh Shrapnel
[00:10.325]	I am an immigrant from India
[00:16.973]	I hail from the land of five rivers
[00:23.103]	I came to work in Montreal eleven years ago
[00:29.465]	In the now sagging sector of textiles
[00:43.783]	They told me nineteen hundred and sixty eight
[00:49.302]	That if I took this opportunity to better myself
[00:55.958]	I could afford the immigration authorities
[01:02.345]	And land myself in Montreal
[01:09.464]	So I came young, enthusiastic
[01:15.574]	Ready to work for anything
[01:21.710]	Yes to work for anything
[01:35.643]	Today with a wife and three children
[01:40.632]	They tell me that textiles have run away to South Korea
[01:46.771]	And I sit on Park Avenue
[01:53.418]	Looking at the giant cross on the hill
[01:59.797]	Symbol of Christian piety
[02:19.337]	Unemployed
[02:22.529]	Harassed by the goons of the government ministers
[02:32.128]	Cursed from all sides
[02:37.716]	My wife, my children and myself
[02:43.243]	We wonder when it will all end
[02:49.918]	We wonder when it will all end
