Written by Gregory Porter
Sitting on the top of the roof, the bridge is all mine Steam engines roll by, the bridges fall down and so do my dreams
Boy, you hear me calling your name The bridge is your time Your engine rolls hot If the bridges fall down, don't lose your head of steam
Young man, I'm counting on you And whoa, young man, I'm counting on you
Boy, I didn't make it too far, but baby you are The family star I'll tighten your seams Don't lose your head of dreams Boy, you hear me calling your name The bridge is your time Your engine rolls hot If the bridges fall down, don't lose your head of steam
Young man, I'm counting on you And whoa, young man, I'm counting on you To get me to the other side Hey, hey hey hey, hey
This foot-pound pressure is new Whatever you do is up to you But do me this do: don't lose your head of dreams
Young man, I'm counting on you And whoa, young man, I'm counting on you
Young man, I'm counting on you And whoa, young man, I'm counting on you And whoa, young man You are now the man
Whoa, whoa, young man I'm-a counting on you, hey hey hey You are now the man Can you get me to the other side? Can you get me to the other side? Hey, hey hey hey, huh huh Hey hey, huh huh, hey hey hey Don't lose your head of steam Don't lose your head of steam
