Wake Me, Shake Me

Why don't you, wake me, shake me

Don't let me sleep too late

Gotta get up in the morn time

About a quarter to eight

I'm bound to my job

My boss is a big fat slob

Can't even be a minute late

Or the boss'll blow his gate


Why don't you, wake me, shake me

Don't let me sleep too late

Gotta get up in the morn time

About a quarter to eight

I'm bound to my garbage truck

Gotta lotta cans to pick up

Can't even be a minute late

Or the boss'll blow his gate


Had a dream, had a dream
I said look over yonder
What did I see
I said two big garbage trucks
Comin' after me.
A pickin' up cans, I said side by side
Why don't you swing down sweet garbage truck and let your buddy ride.

(repeat first verse)
