STEELOS John Tams I 'ad no choice, and if I 'ad, I'd still 'av chosen steel. They can do their worst agenst us. They'll not change the way we feel. Me father's father did it and I know it's all but gone. There were a 100,000 of us along the Rother and the Don. CHORUS: Goin' down to Steelo's, get mesen a start. Dunna ler it cobble. It'll tear the place apart. Catch it as it's comin', throw the bugger back, Keep your tongs upon the metal and your eyes upon the track. I got a start at Steelo's. Me dad put in a word. His dad 'ad done the same for 'im. That's how the work got shared. The mill roared like a dragon's den. The Tongmen prove their power Catchin' white-hot metal comin' 40 mile an hour. CHORUS: Goin' down to Steelo's, get mesen a start. Dunna ler it cobble. It'll tear the place apart. Catch it as it's comin', throw the bugger back, Keep your tongs upon the metal and your eyes upon the track.
