Les paroles de la chanson
« Compagny sin »
John Butler Trio

Ben got a job at the mine along the way.
He said everything was fine until that fatefulday.
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 world he had in store
Wanted to travel, needed some dough
Everybody worked the mine why should he say no.

Don’t ask him why
Now things for him have changed
It’s not his land, they’re not his song’s
He can’t work out why he don’t belong,

He part of Company
part of Company Sin.
Won’t someone please tell the lad,
when Humbug did begin.

Now legend has it or so they say,
The Bones of an Ancient People,
Yeah, that’s where they lay and,
Their Descendents, 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 every single night.
Hearing voices in a different tongue,
The screaming of the Old, the screaming of the Young

He part of Company
part of Company Sin.
Won’t someone please tell the lad,
when Humbug did begin.

Now Ben moved on, job left him a while back
Now his thanking God that his boss gave him the sack.
But in the mirror, yes he can face.
The day he stopped helping go blow up that Sacred Place
