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 |
