Drille terriers, drille

For it's work all day

For the sugar in your tea

Down behind the railway

And drille terriers, drille

Drille terriers, drille

For it's work all day

Drille terriers, drille

For it's work all day

For the sugar in your tea

Down behind the railway

And drille terriers, drille

Drille terriers, drille

For it's work all day

For the sugar in your tea

Down behind the railway

And drille terriers, drille

And blast

And fire
