Coasters - Wake Me, Shake Me Lyrics

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.
