Текст песни Westgate - Mark Seymour

My name is Eddie, I'm a wanted man now
But I know where I was that day
Hiding from the foreman at the base of the tower
When I saw the mighty bridge give way
Bolts started snapping on the western span
They sounded like machine gun fire
You should've heard when she came down
The wind blew me over the wire
And the cold wind blows
Down by the river where nobody goes
Hell broke free when the bridge came down
When the bridge came down
We overheard the engineers
Talking about the master plan
Something about rust and a difference in camber
And buckles in the western span
We went back on the job that day
Well they swore blue murder she would never come down
I got away with six broken ribs
I'm the luckiest man around
And the cold wind blows
Down by the river where nobody goes
Hell broke free when the bridge came down
When the bridge came down
When you go to work each day
You think you're gonna come back alive
You kiss your wife and your kids goodbye
When you know you're gonna play to survive
Sometimes I lie awake at night
And think about the ones who died
The riggers and the chippies and the boilermakers
The boys who had nowhere to hide
I think about how proud we were
And how we got a bad job done
You gotta trust who you're working with
When the steel starts to buckle in the sun
And the cold wind blows
Down by the river where nobody goes
Hell broke free when the bridge came down
And the cold wind blows
Down by the river where nobody goes
Hell broke free when the bridge came down
When the bridge came down
