In eighteen hundred and forty-one
The corduroy breeches I put on
Me corduroy breeches I put on
To work upon the railway, the railway
I'm weary of the railway
Poor Paddy works on the railway
In eighteen hundred and forty-two
From Hartlepool I moved to Crewe
Found myself a job to do
A working on the railway
I was wearing corduroy breeches
Digging ditches, pulling switches
Dodging pitches, as I was
Working on the Railway
In eighteen hundred and forty-three
I broke the shovel across me knee
I went to work for the company
On the Leeds to Selby railway
I was wearing corduroy breeches
Digging ditches, pulling switches
Dodging pitches, as I was
Working on the Railway
In eighteen hundred and forty-four
I landed on the Liverpool shore
My belly was empty me hands were raw
With working on the railway, the railway
I'm sick to my guts of the railway
Poor Paddy works on the railway
In eighteen hundred and forty-five
When Daniel O'Connell he was alive
When Daniel O'Connell he was alive
And working on the railway
I was wearing corduroy breeches
Digging ditches, pulling switches
Dodging pitches, as I was
Working on the Railway
In eighteen hundred and forty-six
I changed my trade to carrying bricks
I changed my trade to carrying bricks
To work upon the railway
I was wearing corduroy breeches
Digging ditches, pulling switches
Dodging pitches, as I was
Working on the Railway
In eighteen hundred and forty-seven
Poor Paddy was thinking of going to Heaven
The old bugger was thinking of going to Heaven
To work upon the railway, the railway
I'm sick to my death of the railway
Poor Paddy works on the railway
I was wearing corduroy breeches
Digging ditches, pulling switches
Dodging pitches, as I was
Working on the Railway

El texto musical POOR PADDY de POGUES también está presente en el álbum Red roses for me (1984)
The Pogues sono una band folk punk anglo-irlandese attiva tra gli anni '80 e '90. Fondati a Londra nel 1982 da Shane MacGowan (cantante) e Jem Finer (chitarra), il gruppo ha saputo mescolare influenze tradizionali irlandesi con un sound rock energico, creando un genere unico che li ha resi iconici. Il loro stile, definito da MacGowan stesso come «musica irlandese per un giovane pubblico rock», è caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi spesso malinconici e profondi, e una forte componente di protesta sociale. Tra i brani più famosi dei Pogues ci sono "Fairytale of New York", una collaborazione con Kirsty MacColl che è diventata un classico natalizio, "A Rainy Night in Soho" e "Streams of Whiskey". L'album "Rum Sodomy and the Lash" (1985) è considerato uno dei loro lavori più importanti. Nonostante le difficoltà interne e la dipendenza di MacGowan, i Pogues hanno lasciato un segno indelebile nella musica folk punk, influenzando generazioni di artisti.
