Lyrics Bethlehem Steel - Delta Rae

A child was born in Bethlehem
The son of a steel worker union man
He grew up tall and he grew up strong
And when he came of age, all the steel was gone
Gone to China, to Vietnam
There's no more steel left in Bethlehem

He wants gold, there's no more steel left in Bethlehem

A reckless kid wants to use his hands
He's got a real quick trigger and some new demands
He grows up fast, and he grows up free
And when he comes around, he finds there's no more steel

So shaken, to his knees
He's got the same old rocket and a new disease
And he won't take it, on his neck
He's got the red hot whiskey, he's got no respect

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Outta put your faith in the government
But there's no more steel left in Bethlehem
Try to get them back, say a quick amen
But there's no more steel left in Bethlehem

He wants gold
