JIM O’BRIEN
Jim O’Brien! Working Man What does he do for us? He does the very best he can And never makes a fuss; I knew him thirty years ago, When I was carting coal, And how he helped us, you all know, When we were on the dole.
Jim O’Brien! Still the same, And we still call him Jim, That “Honourable” to his name Will never alter him. Our problems all he understands, He knows a Worker’s Life, And toiled himself with his own hands When Poverty was rife.
Jim O’Brien! One of the boys, He likes good honest fun, A happy song, a bit of noise When working hours are done. To Parliament he’ll lead the rest, He’s honest, and he’s fair, For us, “Old Jim” will give his best, Make sure we get him there. “The Thin Man.” —The Southern Cross.
