Lyrics

[00:23.59] Here in north east Ohio
[00:27.69] Back in 1803
[00:30.62] James and Danny
[00:33.76] Found the ore that was linin’ yellow creek
[00:37.42] They built a blast furnace
[00:40.60] Here along the shore
[00:44.07] And they made the cannon balls
[00:47.44] That helped the union win the war
[00:51.80] Here in Youngstown
[00:54.92] Here in Youngstown
[00:58.36] My sweet Jenny, I’m sinkin’ down
[01:02.77] Here darlin’ in Youngstown
[01:06.60]
[01:11.58] Well my daddy worked the furnaces
[01:14.95] Kept ’em hotter than hell
[01:18.02] I came home from Nam worked my way to scarfer
[01:20.56] A job that’d suit the devil as well
[01:24.55] Taconite, coke and limestone
[01:28.09] Fed my children and made my pay
[01:31.53] Then smokestacks reachin’ like the arms of god
[01:35.18] Into a beautiful sky of soot and clay
[01:40.18] Here in Youngstown
[01:43.78] Here in Youngstown
[01:47.06] My sweet Jenny, I’m sinkin’ down
[01:51.94] Here darlin’ in Youngstown
[01:56.94] Well my daddy come on the 0hio works
[02:02.63] When he come home from world war two
[02:05.92] Now the yards just scrap and rubble
[02:08.75] He said, "Them big boys did what Hitler couldn’t do"
[02:12.91] These mills they built the tanks and bombs
[02:15.80] That won this country’s wars
[02:19.69] We sent our sons to Korea and Vietnam
[02:22.83] Now we’re wondering what they were dyin’ for
[02:28.37] Here in Youngstown
[02:31.72] Here in Youngstown
[02:34.99] My sweet Jenny, I’m sinkin’ down
[02:39.21] Here darlin’ in Youngstown
[02:49.80]
[03:19.98] From the Monongahela valley
[03:22.53] To the Mesabi iron range
[03:25.99] To the coal mines of Appalacchia
[03:29.15] The story’s always the same
[03:33.92] Seven-hundred tons of metal a day
[03:36.61] Now sir you tell me the world's changed
[03:39.65] Once I made you rich enough
[03:42.60] Rich enough to forget my name
[03:46.02] Here in Youngstown
[03:49.51] Here in Youngstown
[03:53.92] My sweet Jenny, I’m sinkin’ down
[03:57.44] Here darlin’ in Youngstown
[04:02.50] When I die I don’t want no part of heaven
[04:06.61] I would not do heavens work well
[04:09.31] I pray the devil will come and take me
[04:13.98] To stand in the fiery furnaces of hell
[04:18.03] In Youngstown
[04:21.56] Here in Youngstown
[04:25.26] My sweet Jenny, I’m sinkin’ down
[04:28.65] Here darlin’ in Youngstown
[04:34.02] My sweet Jenny, I’m sinkin’ down
[04:38.31] Here darlin’ in Youngstown
[04:41.24]
