Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[Am]The Iron road's a hard road and
the [Em]work is never end[Am]ing
Work[Asus2]ing night [Am]and day
on the iron way
[Em]We're [Am]the boys who keep
the en[Em]gines [Am]rolling
You sigh on at the loco shed,
they [Em]put you to the [Am]clean[Asus2] ing
In your dun[Am]garees,
cleaning super dees
You're a sweep[Asus2]er- upper,
brewer- upper, shovel slinger
Spanner bringer
[Am]Steam raiser, fire dropper,
general cook and bottle washer
Learning how to [Em]keep 'em
[Am]rolling
When you've done your time at the loco shed
And [Em]had your

[Verse 2]
share of [Am]trouble
On [Asus2]the old f[Em]ootplate[Am],
you're the driver's mate
[Em]And [Am]you're married to [Em]a lousy [Am]shovel
It's check the water,
check the tools and chuck
The [Em]blooming coal [Am]in
[Asus2]Give the gauge[Am] a wipe,
check injector pipe, [Em]now i[Am]t's
Swing [Asus2]your shovel at t[Am]he double,
give her rock
Watch the clock
Steam [Asus2]rising, s[Am]weat running,
back aching, bone shaking
Fireman, fireman,
[Em]keep her [Am]rolling
When you've shoveled a million tons of coal

[Verse 3]
Some
ten or twelve [Em]years [Am]later
And your only dream is of raising steam
[Em]Then [Am]they hand to you
[Em]your drivers [Am]papers
The iron road is a hard road and the work
is [Em]never end[Asus2]ing
Working [Am]night and day on the iron way,
we're the
Loco drivers, early riser,
[Asus2]lodging t[Am]urners, mile burners
Eleven quid a week earners
We're the boys that [Em]keep 'em [Am]rolling
