hereditary worker


I dressed, know, was born,
Live, work, learn
At the factory, oh, at the factory.

The rural school - reading, knowledge,
I am a worker by vocation,
By nature, oh, by the nature.

Had strength and agility,
I fall for disobedience
In trouble, eh, in trouble.

Ten times arrested
Fined fifty times
For a trifle, eh, for a trifle.

Five hundred times shortchanged,
More than once, and Bevan -
I swear, oh, swore.

Not once corrected,
The path-track sent -
Gozhusya not, uh, not gozhusya.
