Cracking Song by a cracking singer......at the crack of dawn..... :) The Tunnel Tigers (Ewan MacColl) 1. Hares run free on the Wicklow mountains, Wild geese fly and the foxes play; Sporting Wicklow boys are working, Driving a tunnel through the London clay. Up with the shields and jack it! Ram it! Drive a tunnel through the London clay. 2. Lough Derg trout grow fat and lazy, Salmon sport in Cushla bay; And fishermen from Connemara Drive a tunnel through the London clay. 3. Below Armagh the wild ducks breeding, Wild fowl gather on Loch Rea, The sporting boys of Longford County Are digging a tunnel through the London clay. 4. The curragh rots on the Achill Island, Tourists walk on the Newport quay; The Mayo boys have all gone roving, Digging a tunnel through the London clay. 5. The Carlow girls are fine and handsome, All decked out so neat and gay; The Carlow boys dont come to court em Theyre driving a tunnel through the London clay. 6. Down in the dark are the tunnel tigers Far from the sun and the light of day; Down in the land that the sea once buried, Driving a tunnel through the London clay.
