I was looking for country music songs about welding and I was surprised at how many recording artists had been welders or had welders for parents, from Hank Williams to Ricky Skaggs, and lots more. Any undiscovered stars out there who have a song about welding?

There is a new country song (been out for at least a year now) that has a line "a welders son and a bankers daughter", I always sing that part out loud, I have no clue who sings it though.

Crap, you're right.  Surprised I didn't remember that one.  It's called Only In America by Brooks and Dunn.

Hey Ross! Not to get off topic but, (Duhhh??? ;) ) was'nt Steve McQueen a roughneck and a welder before he was discovered as an actor?

Maybe there's a theme song from one of his movies that can relate to welding??? Just a thought. ;)

Respectfully,
Henry

"Get Your Biscuits In The Oven And Your Buns In The Bed", "Her Teeth Was Stained, But Her Heart Was Pure", "How Can I Miss You If You Won't Go Away"?, "I Got In At 2 With A 10 And Woke Up At 10 With A 2", "I'm Gonna Hire A Wino To Decorate Our Home", "I've Got Red Eyes From Your White Lies And I'm Blue All The Time", " I've Got Tears In My Ears From Lying On My Back In My Bed While I Cry Over You", "If I Can't Be Number One In Your Life, Then Number Two On You", "If I Had Shot You When I Wanted To, I'd Be Out By Now", "My John Deere Was Breaking Your Field, While Your Dear John Was Breaking My Heart", "You Done Tore Out My Heart And Stomped That Sucker Flat", "You're The Reason Our Kids Are So Ugly", "You're The Hangnail In My Life, And I Can't Bite You Off", "You Stuck My Heart In a Old Tin Can and Shot It Off a Log", "I'd Rather Pass a Kidney Stone Than Spend Another Night With You", "Take Me To The Corn Field Honey And I'll Kiss You Between The Ears", If I Had It To Do All Over Again, I'd Do It All Over You".

That's a great find. But since it offers only expectations of eternal damnation, it might not work for recruiting young people into welding.

Carrie Underwood is "welding" in one of her videos (a torch, but ok....), All American Girl, Here's a pic of it on this website. Thought you might get a kick out of it.
