Early in the morning

Going to meet a man
                 Csus2
Wants a truck unloading
     Csus4   C
For cash-in-hand

You don?t ask questions

When there?s nothing in the bank 
                 Csus2
Got to feed the kids
             Csus4         C
And put the diesel in the tank


Bacon, egg and sausage

Double chips and beans 
                   G
Tea and bread and butter
       F             C
And a day on the machines

Christmas is coming

With the final demand
              G
What you got going
     F       C
For cash in hand

Early in the morning

Where the trucks all stand
                           G
I?ve got a pocket full of folding
       F             C
And a pair of jerry cans

I?ve got to keep it going

They?re laying off at Ford
                    G
I?m only one step ahead
       F      C
Of my room and board
