"Tinker's Damn"

Refers to the lowly status held by tinkers. Tinkers in Europe were wanderers and gypsies with a reputation for little morality and poor language. If you ever saw the Irish movie, "The Field", you would see a good example of tinkers. The story line wasn't that great but Richard Harris was nominated for an Academy Award. Great piece of acting.
