Hugh Joseph Feely - Worker's Song

A song about the working class and how they are oppressed by society and Government. Despite their considerable contributions they often work in poor conditions for low pay, and are the first ones sent to war.

A song about injustice and hierarchy, a theme I don't ever think will ever be phased out, despite it's corruption.
Written by Ed Pickford and recorded by Dick Gaughan in 1981. A timeless song with strong passionate lyrics which I couldn't help but been moved by.

A message that has been engrained in us from our forefathers growing up in the west of Ireland. To hell or to Connacht!
"We've been yoked to the plough since our time first began, we're always expected to carry the can."
