Bethlehem Steel Lyrics - Pete Frega

I once fell in love with a stranger I met. 

We talked life and meaning in coffee shop dawns. 

Those days weren't easy, I was broke I was lazy, 

and there was a war on. 

But I knew every rock star and I drove a sports car, 

and she was a blonde. 

My father worked dayshift at Bethlehem Steel, 

and I ran with a dancer who drank rose wine. 

And the nights were terrific on the wild pacific - 

I had more than my share of times. 

She was a stone fox and richer than Fort Knox, 

and the summer, sublime.

Time, where did you go... 

black lights and dreams ... Bridget Bardot? 

Memories blurred like the spokes in a wheel, 

gone like the smoke from the cauldrons of Bethlehem Steel. 

I stuck out my thumb, met a girl by the bay. 

Ah, she smoked Gauloises in a jet-black beret. 

She wore paisley and cheap fur, 

although I never loved her, 

so I headed back to L.A. 

And I made a new start with my coffeeshop sweetheart, 

and she's with me today.
