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
