[Intro]
[Verse]
[Harmonica wails]
Midnight train,
Boots stomp hard on the rusted plain.
Got a torch in hand and a mind like steel,
Melt the metal down, make the thunder feel.
[Verse]
South in my veins, rap speed in my tongue,
Bass shakes the ground where the shipyards hum.
Wanted by the ladies, feared by the men,
Best damn welder, I’m back at it again.
[Chorus]
Steel & Swagger, that’s my name,
Gulf Coast blood, Seattle flame.
Sparks fly high when I walk in,
King of the dock where the wild begins.
[Verse]
[Saxophone moans]
lonesome tide,
Blue flames dance where the hulls divide.
Buddies all ’round when the whiskey pours,
But cross me once, you’ll be out them doors.
[Pre-Chorus]
Slow it down when the south wind blows,
Harmonica hums what the deep bass knows.
Ain’t no man can weld like me,
I’m the ghost in the smoke, the devil’s decree.
[Saxophone solo]
[Chorus]
Steel & Swagger, that’s my name,
Gulf Coast blood, Seattle flame.
Sparks fly high when I walk in,
King of the dock where the wild begins.
[Outro][ Harmonica solo]
