The Molly Maguires

Make way for the Molly Maguires
 They're drinkers, they're liars, but they're men
 Make way for the Molly Maguires
 You'll never see the likes of them again
 Down the mines no sunlight shines
 Those pits they're black as hell
 In modest style they do their time
 It's Paddy's prison cell
 And they curse the day they traveled far
 And drown their tears with a jar
 Make way for the Molly Maguires
 They're drinkers, they're liars, but they're men
 Make way for the Molly Maguires
 You'll never see the likes of them again
 Back will break and muscles ache
 Down there there's no time to dream
 Of fields and farms, a woman's arms
 Just dig that bloody seam
 Though they drain their bodies underground
 Who'll dare to push them around
 Make way for the Molly Maguires
 They're drinkers, they're liars, but they're men
 Make way for the Molly Maguires
 You'll never see the likes of them again
 So, Make way for the Molly Maguires
 They're drinkers, they're liars, but they're men
 Make way for the Molly Maguires
 You'll never see the likes of them again
