  • bunch of retards, the lot of yez

    

  • about a bricklayer getting fired in Ireland and emigrating to Oz to work

  • @solomonoftm It's about navvies going to work in Australia. Where they were employed by the British Empire. They were not forced. It's fashionable for you American's who have drunk a pint of porter to once to enjoy the cache of the the Irish victim, but if you used your ears and the brain in that thick skull you have you may hear the truth. But I guess that just would not fit in with your world view would it.

  • @solomonoftm Actually, this one's about voluntarily emigration. The song is from the perspective of a navvy going to Australia.

  • @solomonoftm learn your history before you start throwing comments about you thick fuckin cunt

  • @solomonoftm so why does it say "ill go and look for gold, theres plenty there for diggin " tool ;)

  • @bobsta33 umm...its about Irish PRISONERS going to Australia. Australia was a prison colony.

  • @bobsta33 you sound like a real Einstein
