Crooked Jack - Súnas[00:00:00]
Written by:Sunas/Dominic Behan[00:00:01]
Come on Irish men both young and stern[00:00:23]
With adventure in your soul[00:00:27]
There are better ways to spend your days[00:00:30]
Than in working down a hole[00:00:34]
I was tall and true all of six foot two[00:00:38]
But they broke me across the back[00:00:42]
By a name I'm known and it's not my own[00:00:46]
For they call me crooked Jack[00:00:50]
The ganger's blue eyed boy was I[00:00:54]
Being Jack could do no wrong[00:00:58]
And the reason simply was because[00:01:02]
I could work hard hours and long[00:01:06]
I curse the day and I went away[00:01:10]
To work on hydro dams[00:01:13]
All our sweat and tears[00:01:17]
Our hopes and fears bound up with shuttering jams[00:01:19]
I was tall and true all of six foot two[00:01:25]
But they broke me across the back[00:01:29]
By a name I'm known and it's not my own[00:01:33]
For they call me crooked Jack[00:01:37]
I've seen men old before their time[00:02:12]
Their faces drawn and gray[00:02:16]
But I never thought so soon be mine[00:02:20]
Be lined the self same way[00:02:24]
Well they say that honest toil is good[00:02:27]
For the spirit and the soul[00:02:31]
But the leave me boys[00:02:35]
It's for sweat and blood[00:02:37]
That they want you down the hole[00:02:39]
I was tall and true all of six foot two[00:02:43]
But they broke me across the back[00:02:47]
By a name I'm known and it's not my own[00:02:51]
For they call me crooked Jack[00:02:55]
