Early in the morning

Going to meet a man

Wants a truck unloading

For cash-in-hand

You 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 and sausage

Double chips and beans

Tea and bread and butter

And a day on the machines

Christmas is coming

With the final demand

What you got going

For cash in hand

So it ain’t too pretty

Corned Beef City

It ain’t too pretty

Early in the morning

Where the trucks all stand

I’ve got a pocket full of folding

And a pair of jerry cans

I’ve got to keep it going

They’re laying off at Ford

I’m only one step ahead

Of my room and board

So it ain’t too pretty

Corned Beef City

It ain’t too pretty
