Original: The wellerman song Text: Tinah Ekwall Sång: Tinah Ekwall, Malte Brynedal, Rebecca Mörk och Elina Vikström.
Text: There once was a camp called thirty tree The name of the camp was Holtzdorf by A workers hell and talers land Oh chant, my worker kins, chant
Soon may the foremen come To bring us taler and scotch and rum One day, when the forests are gone We'll take our leave and go
In search for jobs we went on roam Stuck here now, long way from home Years from that we said and swore No more, my worker kins, more
Soon may the foremen come To bring us taler and scotch and rum One day, when the forests are gone We'll take our leave and go
Bound to pines and owned by logs The contracts sealed with all our blood Broken backs and fingers lost What cost, my worker kins, cost
Soon may the foremen come To bring us taler and scotch and rum One day, when the forests are gone We'll take our leave and go X2
