lirik lagu ian campbell folk group - the fireman's song
[verse 1]
whenever you see a train go by
or hear an engine’s whistle cry
think of the man on the old footplate
shoveling coal, the drivers mate
[chorus]
a loco fireman is me grade
boiling water is me trade
the driver thinks he runs the show
but if i’m not there the train won’t go
[verse 2]
heaving coal for a hungry fire
sweating cobs to get steam higher
of the colliers harvest that i burn
with toil and sweat, me wages earn
[chorus]
a loco fireman is me gradе
boiling water is me trade
thе driver thinks he runs the show
but if i’m not there the train won’t go
[verse 3]
the driver sits there like a god
a decent mate but an idle clod
though i’ll be shoveling on me knees
still he’ll sit there at his ease
[chorus]
a loco fireman is me grade
boiling water is me trade
the driver thinks he runs the show
but if i’m not there the train won’t go
[verse 4]
the pick and shovel are tools of me trade
and two strong arms to swing the blade
hands with palms as hard as leather
and nimble feet as light as a feather
[chorus]
a loco fireman is me grade
boiling water is me trade
the driver thinks he runs the show
but if i’m not there the train won’t go
[verse 5]
one day a driver i will be
of the pick and shovel i’ll be free
until that day i’ll shift the coal
raising stream so the train can roll
[chorus]
a loco fireman is me grade
boiling water is me trade
the driver thinks he runs the show
but if i’m not there the train won’t go
