TIG WIRED
There’s A Wild One Going On
Gas testers have cleared the space
Time to crawl into that place
The welder makes another pass
He’s gonna cover everybody’s ass
But out there in the dust and smoke
He’s really dealin’ with a heart that’s broke
His woman wants the rigger man
Likes the boys with the calloused hands
And as he stares into the flames slowly drivin’ him insane
Oh, life is a living hell
He knows the shutdown show too well
I’ll tap my tune on those tubes
Play percussion on the pipes
They crews good to go lined up for the shutdown show
DILLIGAF, FI or FO
That’s the lyrics we all know
Chippin’ hammers sing their songs
There’s a wild one going on
(yah)
There’s a wild one going on
The Iron workers fear no heights
The pipe fitters, who work the nights
The brickies, the scaffold gods, mill wrights.
And the boiler hogs, Tim bashers, Inspectors too
They’re all part of the shutdown zoo
But his woman wants a rigger man
She likes the boys with the calloused hands
And as he stares into the flame
Slowly driving him insane
Life is a livin’ hell
He knows the shutdown show too well.
Ill tap my tune on those tubes
Play percussion on the pipes.
They crews good to go lined up for the shutdown show
DILLIGAF, FI or FO
That’s the lyrics we all know
Chippin’ hammers sing their songs
There’s a wild one going on
(yah)
There’s a wild one going on
Now the boss and the scheduler man
They think that they gotta plan
on how the show is going down
while the boys party up in town
yah the work is hard, the pay is good
pray to god this ain’t your neighborhood
and his woman wants a rigger man
She likes the boys with the calloused hands
And as he stares into the flame
It’s driving him insane
Life is a livin hell
He knows the shutdown show too well.
Ill tap my tune on those tubes
Play percussion on the pipes.
They crews good to go lined up for the shutdown show
DILLIGAF, FI or FO
That’s lyrics we all know
Chippin’ hammers sing their songs
There’s a wild one going on
There’s a wild one going on.
