Lyrics
From the fields of Lithuania to the high Italian hills
We have sailed across the rolling sea to work these rolling mills
We have left our farms and villages, our cities and our towns
To roll the steel that makes the world go 'round
We hold a hundred histories, we speak a dozen tongues
In our hearts the friends we've left behind have stayed forever young
We are children, men, and women, we are black and white and brown
We roll the steel that makes the world go 'round
We have dreamed about the slavery ships that anchor by the shore
Come to steal our souls from Africa for the mills of Baltimore
Strangers in a distant field, our feet on foreign ground
We roll the steel that makes the world go 'round
From Fridays at O'Conner's bar to the fights at Finnish Hall
We have struggled for this union, all for one and one for all
Like a bridge that's made of steel, no storm should tear it down
We roll the steel that makes the world go 'round
We roll the steel that makes the world go 'round
