Corned Beef City Lyrics - Privateering - Mark Knopfler

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
