There is nothing ironic about it, since the song is actually about a Chinese guy building the railroad in the USA. He needs the money, but longs for his home and love in Hong Kong. He even has a picture of his girl with him, which he shows to his co-workers.

I really love these "little story" songs of the Zutons :)
