    Rainy night down in the engine house,
       G                                    D
    sleepin' just as still as a mouse.
       G                                    D

    Stormy days we passed the time away,

    sleepin' in some good warm place.

    Man come along an' we give him a little race.

    And he said, 'Unite all you working men.'

    why does a vigilante man
      G                                D
