Lyrics
Up before the sun Load the crates and run Apples, beans and bread Stalls are set ahead Carry the crates, carry the crates Market day won't wait Carry the crates, carry the crates Hurry to the gate Tomatoes shining red Honey in the shed Neighbours call my name Buying, selling, game Carry the crates, carry the crates Market day won't wait Carry the crates, carry the crates Hurry to the gate Fresh, fresh, fresh today Dance between the stalls Fresh, fresh, fresh today Horns for one and all Carry the crates, carry the crates Market day won't wait Carry the crates, carry the crates Hurry to the gate
