Corned Beef City Songtext / Lyric

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
