Lyrics:

[chorus:]
So, here2s to the people, a long way they come
The emigrant races from merciless places are run
So, here2s to the people, a long way they come
The emigrant races from merciless places are run

They don2t believe what the government said
They don2t like to wait until they2re dead
For thousands of reasons many have fled
From animosity and bloodshed

[chorus]

Fathers and mothers, young and old
Children and grannies along they strolled
You don2t know the stories they were told
Of the land they will behold

[chorus]
