Song of the Roustabouts

[00:03.51] Hike! Ugh! Hike! Ugh! Hike! Ugh! Hike!
[00:36.45] We work all day, we work all night
[00:38.85] We never learned to read or write
[00:40.73] We're happy-hearted roustabouts
[00:43.78] Hike! Ugh! Hike! Ugh! Hike! Ugh! Hike!
[00:48.64] When other folks have gone to bed
[00:51.69] We slave until we're almost dead
[00:53.72] We're happy-hearted roustabouts
[00:56.84] Hike! Ugh! Hike! Ugh! Hike! Ugh! Hike!
[01:02.48] We don't know when we get our pay
[01:04.55] And when we do, we throw our pay away
[01:07.63] We get our pay when children say
[01:13.03] With happy hearts, "It's circus day today"
[01:16.68] Muscles achin'
[01:21.15] Back near breaking
[01:24.35] Eggs and bacon what we need (Yes, sir!)
[01:28.57] Boss man houndin'
[01:31.22] Keep on poundin'
[01:32.81] For your bed and feed
[01:36.91] There ain't no let up
[01:39.34] Must get set up
[01:41.46] Pull that canvas! Drive that stake!
[01:45.82] Want to doze off
[01:47.92] Get them clothes off
[01:50.13] But must keep awake
[01:54.41] Hep! Heave! Hep! Heave! Hep! Heave!
[01:57.77] Hep! Heave! Hep! Heave! Hep! Heave!
[02:00.92] Hep! Heave! Hep!
[02:03.13] Swing that sledge! Sing that song!
[02:05.33] Work and laugh the whole night long
[02:07.18] You happy-hearted roustabouts!
[02:10.96] Pullin', poundin', tryin', groundin'
[02:14.19] Big top roundin' into shape
[02:16.34] Keep on working!
[02:17.29] Stop that shirking!
[02:18.38] Grab that rope, you hairy ape!
[02:20.58] Poundin'! poundin'! poundin'! poundin'!
[02:24.78] Oh...
[02:25.10]
