Driving Home to Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh is my kind of city, multicultural and diverse, regenerating through art, culture and the creative industries, a city with a great tradition sitting in a fantastic location. Each year the Economist magazine announces the city which it thinks has the best quality of life in the USA. Pittsburgh often tops this poll or finishes second. No doubt this is one of the reasons why new industries in biomed and IT are clustering here. (Min you this is the home of Heinz so maybe that is it). DADGAD CAPO 2 Driving Down To Pittsburg I’m cruising down this Highway I’ve been driving all day long Singing to the radio To those good old Nashville songs I’ve still a hundred miles to go But I’ve smiling all the way I’m driving down to Pittsburgh to watch the Pirates play When the morning rolls around You’ll find me heading out downtown Taking in the city The streets, the sights and sounds And I’ll take my lunch on East Street At the Restuarant Six Penn Hell it’s good to be in Pittsburgh Hell its good to be home again. Well, some say we’ve had it tough Some say we’re had it hard But together in this city we’ve worked long and we’ve worked smart We are the best kept secret here in the USA Building this town together Here in Pittsburgh PA Well its true what they say This ‘aint no Paris France But we’ve got music, weve got opera We’ve got Theatre and We’ve got dance We’ve the stealers and the pirates And Andy Warhol too You’ve got everything in Pittsburgh Much anything you’d want to do Walking along the river I see every shade of skin From all corners of the world Of every faith and creed We are a city of the world We ‘aint no Northern dump Were shouting out for Pittsburgh Can you here us Mr Trump Well, some say we’ve had it tough Some say we’re had it hard But together in this city we’ve worked long and we’ve worked smart We are the best kept secret here in the USA Building this town together Here in Pittsburgh PA Read more: http://acousticsoundboard.co.uk/thre...#ixzz4n1z79uOu

Love it! Old Forbes Field, The Gunner, them Stillers, Mario and Syd, Myron (may he rest in peace), WTAE and Paul Shannon's Adventure Hour, Mr. Rogers, the rivers, the parks, the nicest people in the world. Sure, I'm biased but thanks for that heartfelt shoutout to a special town.

Steeler, Pirate AND Penguin fan here....
I would definitely reference City of Champions. Maybe Stargell, Clemente, Mean Joe Greene is a symbol of the ultimate blue collar worker so maybe use that as a line? Maybe a line how the black and gold is as resilient as the miners of old? Just thinkin out loud here

Don't even get me started on the Penguins. I have yet to come off that Stanley Cup Championship high!
