About a quarter to eight
Can't even be a minute late
About a quarter to eight
Can't even be a minute late
About a quarter to eight
Why don't you swing down sweet garbage truck?
Gotta get up in the morning
About a quarter to eight
Why don't you wake me, shake me?
My boss is a big, fat slob
Why don't you wake me, shake me?
Gotta get up in the morning
Don't let me sleep too late
Why don't you wake me, shake me?
What did I see
Why don't you wake me, shake me?
Gotta get up in the morning time
My boss is a big, fat slob
Or the boss will blow his gate
(Don't you know I'm bound)
Gotta get up in the morning time
(Don't you know I'm bound)
I said, "Two big garbage trucks"
Or the boss will blow his gate
Can't even be a minute late
Gotta get up in the morning time
Picking up cans, I said, "Side by side
I had a dream, I had a dream
Gotta get up in the morning
I said, "I looked over yonder"
About a quarter to eight
(My boss)
Got a lot of cans to pick up
About a quarter to eight
I said, "Are coming after me"
I'm bound to my job
Don't let me sleep too late
Or the boss will blow his gate
I'm bound to my job
(My boss)
And let your buddy ride"
I'm bound to my garbage truck
Why don't you wake me, shake me?
(Don't you know I'm bound)
(I got a lot)
