Steady on the Steel Lyrics


He's busting ass for a living

On the forty-fifth floor

The cold winds howling

Got one foot in the door

He only wants an honest day's pay

For a good day's work

This life is gonna kill him

Those around him, they fear the worst

He tries to be the man they want to see, but

Somehow he never gets it right

Don't want to see him fry,

Don't want to see him die

The feel of the cold steel

The hammers pound

Breaks out in a cold sweat

Three hundred feet off the ground

But at five o'clock they hit the bars

And have a drink or ten

And when he thinks it's over

Some fool tells him it never ends

But he's steady on the steel

The way he lives, it's the way he feels

He's steady on the steel

You're steady on the steel

The way you live, it's the way you're feeling

You're steady on the steel

His blood starts pumping

When he hears the roar

The hammers pounding

On his front door

But when he thinks it's finally over and

It's gonna end

Someone goes and pulls the plug and

He has to start all over again

But he's steady on the steel

The way he lives, it's the way he feels

He's steady on the steel

You're steady on the steel

The way you live, it's the way you're feeling

You're steady on the steel
