lyrics

Wake up and put your uniform on
Hardshelled hat and heavy duty gloves
And please be careful out there, darlin’
Building bridges is a brave man’s work

You know one day you’ll be in history
People will walk upon the steel you mold
Things like these they just don’t fall apart
No matter how fragile and how old

And our children will carry on
What you started here today
And I know everyone involved
Will have nothing but good things to say
About the monument
We built for them

Don’t worry there, it’s an easy job
And I’ll be home before you know
All I need is my kerosene torch
With your love I can’t go wrong

Where I stand I see the sun come up
Across the water it fills my soul
I tell you, dear, the bridge is strong
And someday you’ll see what I saw

And our children will carry on
What you started here today
And I know everyone involved
Will have nothing but good things to say
About the monument
We built for them
About
The monument
We built for them
