Steel River (live)

I was born and raised on steel river

I see it all like it was yesterday

The ships and bridges they were all delivered

From Sydney harbour to the Cisco bayAnd I met my love down on steel river

We served our dreams and spent our childhood days

In rainy streets we'd kiss away the shivers

And hide from fear inside the latest crazeDancing to Motown

Making love with Carole King record playing

And oh how I loved you

Say goodbye steel riverTen thousand bombers hit the steel river

And many died to keep her running free

And she survived but now she's gone forever

Her burning heart is just a memoryAnd I ran away from life on steel river

Luck or not I gladly took the break

The odds were low the chances nearly zero

A chance it was I had to take

Say goodbye steel riverThey say that salmon swim in steel river

They say it's good to see them back again

I know it hurts to see what really happened

I know one salmon ain't no good to themThey were born and raised to serve their steel mother

It was they taught and all they ever knew

And they believed that she would keep their children

Even though not a single word was true

Say goodbye steel river
