Description:

This song about railway workers was sung by a Thomas Casey, according to sheet music published in 1888, though it probably goes back to earlier days of railroad construction. The word "tarriers" may mean "terriers" - people who dig in the earth. There is also a Newfoundland version called "Drill ye Heroes, Drill".

Best version so far on YouTube - BRAVO! They must have left out the last verse in the grade school version because of the word "hell". Thanks for bringing back some cool memories!
