The Jigantics"A fabulous fusion of blues, rock, folk and Americana that blew the socks off our audience. Absolute class."Steve Sheldon www.folkicons.co.uk"Fantastic music... The Jigantics were a highlight act"The Daily Telegraph"What an amazing band! The Jigantics were fantastic. No wonder the place was packed out. What an absolutely brilliant masterclass in entertainment."Derry, Woodman Folk ClubThe Miner, Teacher and Ploughboy (single), released 10 March 2022Tommy was a miner He worked a Gale down in the DeanHewing coal for a coin or twoPickaxe to the seamThey sent him mining in Flanders Fields To tunnel way down to the core Now he’s just a name on a cross in the townWho never came back from the warChorusWe’re the lads in the glorious Glosters And by our deeds we will be known We’re the miner, the teacher and ploughboy And when this jobs done We’re coming back homeAnnie sits close to the lamplight To read a letter she’s read times beforeThere’s a photo there to remind her Of a husband who’s lost to the war They sent her his medals, which seemed poor return For a life that had barely begunShe keeps them next to the cradle So father can watch over sonYou can see us in the summer sunWe cast our shadows ‘cross the cornWe’re in the breath of new born lifeThe birdsong of the dawnWe’re the seeds that scatter on the breeze We’re every leaf and bud and spore So remember us those boys and men Who went to fight that bloody warMay 31st 1916 The stretchers come back from the line An MO says "count yourself lucky old sonYou might walk again given time" They gave Jack his ticket to Blighty And carried him down from the train Now he’s back on the farm in the county But he won’t go ploughing again
