Corned Beef City |
| Early in the morning |
| going to meet a man |
| Who wants a truck un-loading |
| for cash in hand |
| He don’t ask questions |
| when there’s nothing in the bank |
| Got to feed the kids |
| and put the diesel in the tank |
| Bacon, egg & Sausage |
| double chips & beans |
| tea & bread & butter |
| And a day on their machine |
| Christmas coming |
| with the final demand |
| So what you got going? |
| for cash in hand |
| Oh! |
| It ain’t too pretty |
| Corned beef city |
| It ain’t too pretty |
| Corned beef city |
| Early in the morning |
| where the trucks all stand |
| Got a pocket full of folding |
| and a pair of Jerry cans |
| Got to keep it going |
| they’re laying off at four |
| I’m only one step ahead |
| of my room & board |
| Oh! |
| It ain’t too pretty |
| Corned beef city |
| It ain’t too pretty |
| Corned beef city |
| Early in the morning |
| Cause, I’m going to meet a man |
| Who wants a truck un-loading |
| for cash in hand |
| who don’t ask questions |
| and there’s nothing in the bank |
| Got to feed the kids |
| and put the diesel in the tank |
| Cause it ain’t too pretty |
| Corned beef city |
| It ain’t too pretty |
| Corned beef city |
