Verse
D#m F# C#
Come Irish men both young and old
D#m C#
with adventure in your soul
D#m F# C#
There are better ways to spend your days
D#m C# D#m
than toilin' down a hole
[Chorus]
F# C#
I was tall and true, all of six foot two
D#m C#
till they broke me across the back
D#m F# C#
By a name I'm known, it's not my own
D#m C# D#m
They call me Crooked Jack
[Verse 2]
D#m F# C#
The blue eyed gangers pet was I
D#m C#
Big Jack could do no wrong
D#m F# C#
The reason simply was because
D#m C# D#m
I could work hard hours and long
(Chorus)
[Verse 3]
I've seen men old before their time,
their faces dark and gray
I never thought that I myself
would soon be the self same way
(Chorus)
[Verse 4]
I cursed the day I went away
to work on those Hydro dams
For sweat and tears or hope and fear
bound up a shuddering jams
(Chorus)
[Final Verse]
They say that honest toil is good
for the body and the soul
but I tell you boys it's blood and sweat
that they want you down a hole
