I'm a steel worker from Pittsburgh   my daddy was one too   I hear the president is coming our way   to drink some iron city brew   he's raising money for his campaign   getting it while he can   'cause when he lifts that tariff   our steel will turn to sand   our steel will turn to sand      Never been more than 50 miles   from my own front door   and now my son is hunkered down   fighting the president's war   I wonder if he'll speak with me   or maybe answer a question or two   I sure hope I can catch his eye   probably not an easy thing to do   probably not an easy thing to do      He's kinda quiet when steel comes up   and the reason we all agree   there are only a few money boys here   the rest are folks like me   they had us decking out the hall downtown   in red white and blue   I'm washing the grime from my hands   and the bullshit from my shoes   and the bullshit from my shoes      You come down here looking for dollar bills   well what are my kids to do   right now I can provide for them well enough   but not the both of you   come sit at my table   we'll break bread and have a beer   and leave your circus clowns on the porch   they're not welcome here      I'm a steel worker from Pittsburgh   my daddy was one too   I hear the president is coming our way   to drink some iron city brew
