The railroad worker ... and his descendants

The railroad worker may be great
Yet think his hammer is dumb
  And the rails will wait
  As he rales at fate
When the hammer struck his thumb!

He may be Christian and devout
And kiss the Holy Rood
  Yet the rails will wait
  As he rales at fate
If the cook has burnt the food.

He may be a dancer, gallantly
Turn ladies, kiss them soon
  Yet the rails will wait
  As he rales at fate
If the fiddler is out of tune.

His descendants may be bloggers bold,
Love all things internet
  Yet the mails will wait
  As they rale at fate
If connexion is upset!
