Early one morning around 7 o'clock
there were 16 terriers working on the rock.
The boss came alone and he said keep still
and bare down harder on the cast and drill
and drill ye terriers, drill.
Drill ye terriers drill!
For his work all day for sugar in yer tea,
down behind the railway,
and drill ye terriers, drill,
and blast, and fire.
The new foreman was John McAnn
by gosh he was a mighty hard man
one day a premature blast went off
and a mile in the air shot big Dan Goff, now drill ye terriers drill,
Drill ye terriers drill!
For his work all day for sugar in your tea,
down behind the railway
and drill ye terriers, drill,
and blast, and fire.
The next months payday came around
Dan Goff a dollar short was found,
he asked what for came, this reply
you was stop for the time you was up in the sky.
Now drill ye terriers, drill.
Drill ye terriers drill!
For his work all day for sugar in yer tea,
down behind the railway,
and drill ye terriers, drill,
and blast, and fire. (Repeat x 2)
