Tami Neilson - Ten Tonne Truck lyrics

[Tami Neilson - Ten Tonne Truck lyrics]

Daddy born poor, Mama was too
Walkin' through the snow
Plastic bags on their shoes
Papa sellin' houses,  sleepin' in a car
Poor baby's in the
Backseat underneath the stars

Well, hey hey just work a little harder
Hey, hey punchin' that clock
With work and prayer and a little bit of luck
Make so much money, need a ten tonne truck
Ah, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha

Well, the bank took the house
When Daddy lost his job
Put a hitch on the back
Of Mama's little silver Dodge
Drove with nothin' but our clothes and guitar
Right down to Nashville, gonna be big stars

Hey, hey just work a little harder
Hey, hey punchin' that clock
With work and prayer and a little bit of luck
Make so much money, need a ten tonne truck
Ah, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha

Well, you scratch and you claw and
You try to make a livin' pay dues
Get moved right back to the beginning
When the pie gets bigger
Everybody wants a slice
What I've been cookin' since back in '89

Well, hey hey just work a little harder
Hey, hey punchin' that clock
With work and prayer and a little bit of luck
Make so much money, need a ten tonne truck
Well, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
