After years of hearing urban legends about a lawless old mining town with a sky-high murder rate, blues musician Big Mike Griffin decides to learn the truth about Iron City for himself. Unlike nearby McNairy County which was home to Sheriff Buford Pusser in "Walking Tall", Iron City has remained lawless and untamed. To Big Mike, it seemed like the perfect subject for a blues song.

Along with a former Marine as a guide, Big Mike rides through Tennessee's backwoods into the heart of Iron City. There, surrounded by buildings ravaged by fire and years of decay, he interviews a fascinating collection of locals who seem to actually enjoy living their lives on the edge of anarchy. The resulting song, a high-energy blues anthem infused with southern rock, is as much a celebration of Iron City as it is an ominous warning to outsiders. Welcome to Iron City. Watch your back.
