Black Gold

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

Darken 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

Cut my dollar in half

You should try it out sometime, okay

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

If they've got enough

They've got enough

For you and me

(Okay, yeah, we'll have to)

(It's close)
