Company Sin Lyrics by John Butler Trio, The

Company Sin Lyrics

    Ben got a job at the mine along the way.
    He said everything was fine until that fateful day
    That's when his life started to change the day
    He went to help and go blow up that Mountain Range
    Ben moved to town a year ago or maybe more
    Straight out of High School, the whole he had in store
    Wanted to travel, needed some dough
    Everybody worked the mine why should he say no.
    Don't ask him why, he can't explain
    Why now things for him have changed
    It's not his land, they're not his songs
    He can't work out why he don't belong
    He part the Company Sin.
    Won't someone please tell the lad
    Where Hambug did begin.
    Now legend has it or so they say
    The Bones of Ancient People, yeh that's where they lay
    And their decendents hold close to heart.
    Oh that mountain range Ben was helping blow apart
    And as I said for Ben things weren't quite right
    Now he's waking up screaming of the Young
    Don't ask him why, he can't explain
    Why now things for him have changed
    It's not his land, they're not his songs
    He can't work out why he don't belong
    He part the Company Sin.
    Won't someone please tell the lad
    Where Hambug did begin.
    Now Ben moved on job left him a while back
    Now he's thanking god that his boss gave him the sack
    But in the mirror yes he conforce the day
    He stopped helping go blow up that Sacred Place
