Текст песни Steel Men (Jimmy Dean) с переводом

Steel men, hey

Working on a bridge of steel

Working on a bridge of steel

Out on the rocky western coast

Of Vancouver by the sea

At a place that’s

Known as Second Narrows

They were building a bridge of steel

Well, they hammered

And they cut and they riveted

And the welding torches were bright

Making a strap on a river’s back

When upon one fatal night

Steel men, hey

Working on a bridge

To cross that water

Steel men, ho

Working on a bridge of steel

Well, it happened on

The eighteenth day of June

Back in nineteen fifty plus eight

People were fishing from the shore

The day was getting late

Now the wind was

Tugging at the maple trees

But a steel man knows no fear

If somebody wanted

To bridge the Pacific

Well, a steel man would be there

Well, all of a sudden

Now, the wind picked up

And it blew as hard as it could

And that steel bridge swayed

Like a leaf in the breeze

And it snapped like a stick of wood

Now the girders buckled

And the rivets broke

And the water heard the cry

And that steel bridge

Shook off the working men

Like a hounddog shakes off flies

Eighteen men just as hard as nails

And as eager as a brand new bride

And as the clock on the

Tower said quarter of four

All eighteen had died

Steel men, ain’t going back

To a wife and daughter

Steel men, living and dying by steel

Living and dying by steel

Living and dying by steel

Living and dying by steel
