The Molly Mcguires Lyrics - Town Pants

Though they drain their bodies underground 

Who'd dare to push them around? 

Make way for the Molly McGuires 

They're drinkers they're liars but they're men 

Make way for the Molly McGuires 

You'll never see the likes of them again 

Down the mines no sunlight shines 

Those pits they're black as hell 

In mud and slime they do their time 

Its paddy's prison cell 

And they curse the day they travelled far 

And drown their tears in a jar 

Backs will break and muscles ache 

Down there there's no time to dream 

Of fields and farms a woman's arms 

Just dig that bloody seam 

Though they drain their bodies underground 

Who'd dare to push them around
