Black Gold Songtext

Black Gold Songtext
Oliver Asley Lane
He was a quarter the way insane
But he ain′t to blame
'Cause with a trust fund like that
I′d be the same
His father was the engine
And his mother was the light
She had a pension
And valued money over time
I used to see his sister
Her name was Jenny Gasoline
I used to see her picture
On the cover of a dirty magazine
But she looked best when she was mine
Sugar don't you worry
Don't you shed a tear
They′ve got enough black gold
For another year
We′ll just have to wait and see
If they've got enough
If they′ve got enough
For you and me
There's been an accident on
23rd and Preston
Someone got arrested
And all them brokers
They be broken in the park
And all them liquids that they′re choking on is dark
Darker than a Georgia night with a heavy heart
Sugar don't you worry
Don′t you shed a tear
They've got enough black gold
For another year
We'll just have to wait and see
If they′ve got enough
If they′ve got enough
For you and
Just bought some octane
It cut my dollar in half
You should try it out sometime
Oh, yeah
There's nothing like going way too fast
Way too fast
Sugar don′t you worry
Don't you shed a tear
They′ve got enough black gold
For another year
We'll just have to wait and see
If they′ve got enough
They've got enough
(One more time if they-)
They've got enough
For you and me
He was a quarter the way insane
But he ain′t to blame
'Cause with a trust fund like that
I′d be the same
His father was the engine
And his mother was the light
She had a pension
And valued money over time
I used to see his sister
Her name was Jenny Gasoline
I used to see her picture
On the cover of a dirty magazine
But she looked best when she was mine
Sugar don't you worry
Don't you shed a tear
They′ve got enough black gold
For another year
We′ll just have to wait and see
If they've got enough
If they′ve got enough
For you and me
There's been an accident on
23rd and Preston
Someone got arrested
And all them brokers
They be broken in the park
And all them liquids that they′re choking on is dark
Darker than a Georgia night with a heavy heart
Sugar don't you worry
Don′t you shed a tear
They've got enough black gold
For another year
We'll just have to wait and see
If they′ve got enough
If they′ve got enough
For you and
Just bought some octane
It cut my dollar in half
You should try it out sometime
Oh, yeah
There's nothing like going way too fast
Way too fast
Sugar don′t you worry
Don't you shed a tear
They′ve got enough black gold
For another year
We'll just have to wait and see
If they′ve got enough
They've got enough
(One more time if they-)
They've got enough
For you and me
