Gravel Pit Song

Every day in the morning when the sun comes up
I climb aboard my big dump truck
The man on the radio said it reall well
«Today's gonna be hotter than hell»
With a big cloud of dust following behind
Grinding the gears out on the mainline
Another load of gravel and another day
And I don’t give a damn about what you say
One of these days I swear I’m gonna quit
Workin' at the gravel pit
Dust in the sun and mud in the rain
All of this dirt drives a man insane
Dust and dirt, gravel and sand
When I leave this place I’ll be a broken man
Grit in my hair and grit in my teeth
I taste it in my mouth, in the air that I breathe
Another load of gravel and another day
And I don’t give a damn about what you say
One of these days I swear I’m gonna quit
Workin' at the gravel pit
Some day I’ll have a job in the city so fair
With a suit and a tie and some artificial hair
I’ll have a gravel path up to my front door
While I’m counting my money on the Ninteenth floor
As soon as a better job rolls around
I’m gonna quit this pit and blow this town
Another load of gravel and another day
And I don’t give a damn about what you say
One of these days I swear I’m gonna quit
Workin' at the gravel pit
Every day that I come here I say it’s my last
Gravel in my dreams and gravel in my past
Workin' like a dog and swaetin' through my shirt
Bulldozers, excavators, and dirt
When I was a boy I played in the sand
I didn’t think I’d do it as a grown up man
Another load of gravel and another day
And I don’t give a damn about what you say
One of these days I swear I’m gonna quit
Workin' at the gravel pit
