Ode To A Pittsburgh

Pennsylvania's western daughter

With your tubes of liberty

Princess of big iron slaughter

With your boyfriend Carnegie

Oh you were stained glass, you were smoke stacked

You were laid in cobblestone

You were trolley cart tracked

And for you the red sky shown

And while thieves and black sleeved buccaneers

Pitched and kicked their orbs

It was for you that I cheered my wild cheers

In the field of Mr. Forbes

I sent cinnamints from shady side

I paid homage from the hill

Oh no it cannot be denied

Oh cola coke can't kill

Let the trees & shrubs grow strong

May the bagpipes never burst

Let the alleycade roll right along

May I thirst the Dukay thirst

May your steel mills last forever

and your learning towers too

May Mellon remain clever

Good luck and god bless you
