Railroad Worksong Lyrics - Mark Knopfler

Working on a railroad for a dollar a day 

Working on a railroad for a dollar a day 

Working on a railroad good buddy for a dollar a day 

Got to get my money gotta get my pay 

Take this hammer take it to the captain 

Take this hammer take it to the captain 

Take this hammer good buddy take it to the captain 

Tell him I'm gone tell him I'm gone 

If he asks you was I running 

If he asks you was I running 

If he asks you good buddy was I running 

Tell him I was flying tell him I was flying

This old hammer rings like silver 

This old hammer good buddy rings like silver 

Shine like gold buddy and it shine like gold
