John Butler Trio - Company Sin

Ben got a job at the Mine along the way
He said everything was fine until that fateful day
That's when his luck 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 Highschool, the whole he had in store
Wanted to travel, needed some dough
Everybody worked the Mines
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

{Chorus}

He part of Company, part of Company, part of Company Sin
Won't someone please tell the lad when Humbug did begin?
Part of Company, part of Company, part of Company Sin
Won't someone please tell the lad when Humbug did begin?
