lirik lagu the men of no property - the smuggling men
come all you young fellows
that’s bound to a trade
lay down your spanner
your pen and your spade
join in with me now ere
your bloom starts to fade
and i’ll show you a life that’s worth living
and law is against us and dangers we’ll find
over roads, lakes, and valleys
your engines will whine
so forsake your safe job
and throw care to the wind
run as free as the hare on the mountain
i’ll show you a life in the dead of the night
when the rain’s lashing down
and the wind’s like a knife
and many’s the dawn you will spend in full flight
as the mists curling over the mountain
the roads unapproved
and thе country looks dead
reliable sourcеs say the rats are in bed
stamp your foot on the brake
douse your lights, look ahead
their flashlamps are out to destroy you
you’ve all heard of traitors
and spies of ill~fame
informers who don’t know
the meaning of shame
to outwit these pimps in the smuggling game
you work in secret and quite single~handed
they’re sleekit, they’re greedy
it’s no respect for the law
for queen’s regulations they
don’t give a straw
but they’re snooping around for a
stray word to fall
for a few dirty shillings they’d sink you
the story is finished, the old days are done
for smuggling declines like the late~setting sun
the tariffs are threatened
free trades nearly won
and soon there won’t be any customs
i sigh for the times when my pulses ran high
lady luck by my side and customs close by
a tinker, a tailor, or a poor man i’ll die
for they’ve spiked our old roads o’er the border
