Hello big boy
The dust in those works is a site to behold
They say those who work there they never get old
And my lungs are being poisoned, that I do know
As the white lead flies and drifts like the snow
I go home at two to look after my bairns
They have a poor life with the money that I earn
But one thing I make sure of, they always get fed
For them I?ll live and I?ll die breathing in lead
My husband?s a kind hearted gentle man
But he goes on the drink whenever he can
I know I should scold him. I know that I should
But I like drink mesel?. It mixes well with my blood
Last night in the mirror saw blue lines on my gums
I?ve been waiting for this. I knew it would come
The lead lies in my body. Its canker won?t stop
Till my fingers won?t move and my wrists they do drop
Now you may think this is a sad tale that I tell
But I tell you there?s more like me living this hell
One day I do hope they give guarantee
That no one should suffer the life given to me
