I'm old weak and grey and i'm running out of time

Yeah but you should have seen me brother

Back in gary indiana in 1959

I was a steel working man with 2 kids and loving wife

And the union was strong smokestacks burning day and night
工会力量强大 烟囱日夜喷吐着浓烟

But then the accountants and lawyers and bosses at u s steel
直到会计 律师和钢铁公司的高管们
Sent down the word we had to take their rotten deal
上头传话要我们接受这屈辱条件
But from birmingham to pueblo oakland to allentown

The workers got together and we shut the big boys down

The president and supreme court tried to force us off the line

五十九载光阴转瞬即逝
And i feel like a stranger in world that isn't mine

My dear wife died my kids all moved away

Cause there's nothing round here to make them want to stay

Cause the factories are in ruins decent jobs are hard to find

And you can't get ahead no matter how hard you try
无论如何努力都难以出人头地
Cause the big boys make the rules tough luck for everyone else
权贵们制定规则 普通人只能认命
And out on the streets brother it's every man for himself
街头巷尾 人人自危各自为营
I still remember when we marched side by side

Don't bury my body brother when it's my time to die
