Pittsburgh

my grandfather was a steel man
his union due did pull us through
like him
my father
was never much for i love yous

i'm a father too
but that don't mean i'm in their shoes

so i'm gone to pittsburgh
hear the northbound track
i'm coming home
to take my daughter back

i'm gone to pittsburgh
oh pennsylvania line
i'm coming home
to make you mine

the ohio
allegheny
monongahela
cold and grey

smell the rivers
taste the steel
but don't believe
what is not real
