Woah!!!!
Like Woah your horse, get off and chew dirt, cos you're about to get a lesson on FOLK MUSIC.
Just joking... but, seriously, there's a track on recent Genesis album called "Driving in the last spike", which tells the tale of a number of irish navvies getting killed making the railway in uk.
There's a track on Phil Collins album, called "Don't let him steal your heart away".. both are great when sung accoustically; did them myself at folk clubs.
Ok done the decent thing and argued for the band of my childhood. See ya!
