1
My name is Eddie, I am a worn man now
2
But I know where I was that day
3
Hiding from the foreman at the base of the tower
4
When I saw the mighty bridge give way
5
Bolts started snapping on the western span
6
They sounded like machine gun fire
7
You should have heard when she came down
8
The wind blew me over the wire
9
And the cold wind blows
10
Down by the river where nobody goes
11
Hell broke free when the bridge came down
12
When the bridge came down
13
We overheard the engineers
14
Talk about the master plan
15
Something about rust and a difference in camber
16
And buckles in the western span
17
We went back on the job that day
18
Well they swore blue murder she would never come down
19
I got away with six broken ribs
20
I am the luckiest man around
21
And the cold wind blows
22
Down by the river where nobody goes
23
Hell broke free when the bridge came down
24
When the bridge came down
25
When you go to work each day
26
You think you are going to come back alive
27
You kiss your wife and your kids goodbye
28
When you know your going to play to survive
29
Sometimes I lay awake at night
30
And think about the ones who died
31
The riggers and the chippies and the boilermakers
32
The boys who had nowhere to hide
33
I think about how proud we were
34
And how we got a badge all done
35
You've got to trust who you are working with
36
When the steel starts to buckle in the sun
37
And the cold wind blows
38
Down by the river where nobody goes
39
Hell broke free when the bridge came down
40
And the cold wind blows
41
Down by the river where nobody goes
42
Hell broke free when the bridge came down
43
When the bridge came down
