lyrics

Where the oil runs free
(Commemorating the BP Oil Spill)

V1.
Sun’s hot but my heart is cold
Sun’s hot but my heart is cold
This weariness
Is getting old
 
V2.
Pack some onion and a bucket of beer
Pack some onion and a bucket of beer
Pump that gas
We’re getting’ out a’ here
 
REFRAIN:
Let’s motor down where the oil runs free
Motor down where the oil runs free
Strike a match
Get on TV
 
INSTR#1
V5.
Flick on your brights, blackout the moon
Flick on your brights, blackout the moon
You’ve turned my life
Into a Looney Tune
 
V7.
Dog barks and a rooster crows
Dog barks and a rooster crows
That’s just the way
These old songs go
 
INSTR#2:
 
CHANGE UP:
You can kiss your sister (kiss your sister)
Come Christmas time (Christmas time)
This song ain’t over (song ain’t over)
‘Til you’re out of rhyme (out of rhyme)
 
So, motor on down (motor on down)
Where the oil runs free (oil runs free)
Strike a match (strike a match)
Get on TV (get on TV)
