Well I'm making big money a workin' at Bethlehem Steel
And I drive a big car and I look like a pretty big wheel
But I'd rather be home now a plowin' a Tennessee field
Instead of making big money a workin' at Bethlehem Steel 

(Chorus):
Guess I better get goin' now, I better get on home now
Goodbye honey, goodbye money, goodbye automobile
Goodbye honey, goodbye money, goodbye Bethlehem Steel 

Well I spend all the money I'm making at Bethlehem Steel
Just to satisfy a woman who don't understand how I feel
How I'd love to sit down to a home-cooked Tennessee meal
Instead of making big money a workin' at Bethlehem Steel
(Repeat chorus) 

I guess I better get goin' now I better get on home now
I guess I better get goin' now I better get on home now
(Repeat and fade)
