In [G]1841, corduroy britches [D]I put on
Me cor[G]duroy britches I put on
To work upon the railway, the rail[D]way
I am [G]weary of [C]the railway[G]
Her paddy works [D]on the [G]railway
In 1842, a barkeep fool,
I moved to Crewe
Found myself a job to [D]do,
working on the [G]railway
[D]I w[G]as wearing corduroy britches,
digging ditches
Pulling switches, dodging hitches,
I [D]was working on the [G]rail[D]way
In [G]1843, [D]bro[G]ught me
shovel across me knee
Went to work for the company,
[D]the Leeds and Selby Railway

diggin' ditches
Pullin' switches, dodgin' niches,
I [D]was workin' on the [G]railway
In 1844, I landed on [D]the Liverpool shore
Me [G]belly was empty, me hands were sore
With [C]working [D]on the [G]railway, the [D]railway

Pullin' switches
Dodgin' hitches
