Lyrics
Hog Butcher for the World
Tool Maker, Stacker of Wheat
Player with Railroads and the Nation's Freight Handler
Stormy, husky, brawling
City of the Big Shoulders
They tell me you are wicked and I believe them, for I have seen your painted women under the gas lamps luring the farm boys
And they tell me you are crooked and I answer: Yes, it is true I have seen the gunman kill and go free to kill again
And they tell me you are brutal and my reply is: On the faces of women and children I have seen the marks of wanton hunger
And having answered so I turn once more to those who sneer at this my city, and I give them back the sneer and say to them
