57 Ulstermen
No better than a slave
Cholera struck some dead
Dumped in a mass grave

The locals feared contagion
And murdered all the rest
A shallow cut beside the tracks
Is now where they all rest

Irish in America
From frying pan to fire
No Irish need apply
None but Duffy would hire

West from Philadelphia
Laying Duffy's track
Promised living wages
They never made it back

Together they all labored
Together they all died
Together forever in the dirt
No murderer was tried

Irish in America
From frying pan to fire
No Irish need apply
None but Duffy would hire

No women gave them comfort
Men alone in the wild
No prayer from a priest
Nor song from a child

Living in the wilderness
Laying down the rails
Driving in the spikes
Deadmen tell no tales

Irish in America
Kneeling at a cross
The death of an Irishman
Was less than a loss
