Eight-Hour Day

We're brave and gallant miner boys, who work in underground
我们是勤劳勇敢的矿工，地下的工作者
For courage and good nature, no finer can be found
没有什么人像我们这样善良和勇敢
We work both late and early, and get but little pay
我们起早贪黑的工作，得到很少的薪水
To support our wives and children, in free Americay
以养活家人，在自由的美利坚
If Satan took the blacklegs, I'm sure t'would bid no sin
如果工贼（出卖工人利益的人）被魔鬼抓走，魔鬼不会判他有罪
What peace and happiness t'would be, for us poor workin' men
但像我们这种可怜的劳工，又能奢望什么快乐和安宁
Eight hours we'd have for workin', eight hours we'd have for play
不过是8小时工作，8小时放松
Eight hours we'd have for sleeping, in free Americay
8小时睡觉，在自由的美利坚
