Working eighteen hour days for the B.A.C, the B.A.C
Opportunity denied them in a doomed and starving land
Sailed these huddled human ballasts on their stinking coffin ships
From the prison of their lonely hearts they labored long and hard
From the prison of their lonely hearts they labored long and hard
With an independent spirit, so full of hopes and dreams
From the prison of their lonely hearts they labored long and hard
Came these ever proud, world renowned, rowdy, roving men
Came these openhearted kindly spirits of truly threatened man
With a firmness and a purpose that so many did dismiss
Of all needy, down trodden, [incomprehensible]
With a firmness and a purpose that so many did dismiss
Intelligent, respectable, but made of modest means
Of all needy, down trodden, [incomprehensible]
Sailed these huddled human ballasts on their stinking coffin ships
Searching for the best break the black forties could afford them
Of all needy, down trodden, [incomprehensible]
