My name is Eddie, I am a worn man nownBut I know where I was that daynHiding from the foreman at the base of the towernWhen I saw the mighty bridge give waynnBolts started snapping on the western spannThey sounded like machine gun firenYou should have heard when she came downnThe wind blew me over the wirennAnd the cold wind blowsnDown by the river where nobody goesnHell broke free when the bridge came downnWhen the bridge came downnnWe overheard the engineersnTalk about the master plannSomething about rust and a difference in cambernAnd buckles in the western spannnWe went back on the job that daynWell they swore blue murder she would never come downnI got away with six broken ribsnI am the luckiest man aroundnnAnd the cold wind blowsnDown by the river where nobody goesnHell broke free when the bridge came downnWhen the bridge came downnnWhen you go to work each daynYou think you are going to come back alivenYou kiss your wife and your kids goodbyenWhen you know your going to play to survivennSometimes I lay awake at nightnAnd think about the ones who diednThe riggers and the chippies and the boilermakersnThe boys who had nowhere to hidennI think about how proud we werenAnd how we got a badge all donenYou've got to trust who you are working withnWhen the steel starts to buckle in the sunnnAnd the cold wind blowsnDown by the river where nobody goesnHell broke free when the bridge came downnnAnd the cold wind blowsnDown by the river where nobody goesnHell broke free when the bridge came downnWhen the bridge came down
