      C
James and Danny Heaton
                                     Dm
Found the ore that was linin' yellow creek

They built a blast furnace Here along the shore
C
And they made the cannon balls
                              Dm
That helped the union win the war 
              C
Here in Youngstown
               Dm

My sweet Jenny, I'm sinkin' down
                      Dm
Here darlin' in Youngstown Well my daddy worked the furnaces

Kept 'em hotter then hell
       C
I come home from 'Nam worked my way to scarfer
                               Dm
A job that'd suit the devil as well

Yeah, taconite, coke and limestone

Fed my children and made my pay
          C
Then smokestacks reachin' like the arms of god
                         Dm
Into a beautiful sky of soot and clay
              C
Here in Youngstown
               Dm

Well my daddy come on the 0hio works

When he come home from world war two
                               C
Now the yards just scrap and rubble
                                          Dm
He said, "Them big boys did what Hitler couldn't do"
       F                    C
These mills they built the tanks and bombs
                           Dm
That won this countries wars
         C
We sent our sons to Korea and Vietnam
                                   Dm

                      Dm
Here darlin' in Youngstown From the Monongaleh valley

To the Mesabi iron range
       C
To the coal mines of Appalacchia
                        Dm
The story's always the same

Seven-hundred tons of metal a day

Now sir you tell me the world's changed
        C
Once I made you rich enough
                          Dm
Rich enough to forget my name

Here darlin' in Youngstown
           F                         C
When I die I don't want no part of heaven
                               Dm
I would not do heavens work well
            C
I pray the devil comes and takes me
                           Dm
To stand in the fiery furnaces of hell
