Lyrics

[00:06.68] Oliver Isley Lane
[00:10.11] He's a quarter the way insane
[00:13.69] But he ain't to blame
[00:15.75] Cuz with a trust fund like that
[00:18.34] I'd be the same
[00:25.93] His father was the engine
[00:29.76] And his mother was the line
[00:33.06] She had a pension
[00:35.89] And valued money over time
[00:39.14] I used to see his sister
[00:42.60] Her name was Jenny Gasoline
[00:45.03] I used to see her picture
[00:48.84] On the cover of a dirty magazine
[00:55.57] But she looked best when she was mine
[01:02.11] Sugar, don't you worry
[01:05.51] Don't you shed a tear
[01:07.93] They've got enough black gold
[01:11.81] For another year
[01:17.45] We'll just have to wait and see
[01:23.71] If they've got enough
[01:26.95] If they've got enough
[01:28.76] For you and me
[01:34.58]
[01:36.87] There's been an accident
[01:39.17] On 23rd and preston
[01:43.40] Someone got arrested
[01:46.89] And all them broker
[01:48.38] They be brokin' in the park
[01:53.13] And all that liquid that they're
[01:55.48] Chokin' on it's dark
[01:58.95] Darker than a Georgia night
[02:00.24] With a heavy heart
[02:05.90] Sugar, don't you worry
[02:09.43] Don't you shed a tear
[02:11.89] They've got enough black gold
[02:15.69] For another year
[02:21.22] We'll just have to wait and see
[02:27.56] If they've got enough
[02:30.58] If they've got enough
[02:32.59] For you and
[02:34.37] Just bought some octane
[02:37.64] Cut my dollar in half
[02:40.37] You should try it out sometime, monkey
[02:43.86] Nothin' like going way to fast
[02:48.31] Way too fast
[02:53.36] Sugar, don't you worry
[02:56.38] Don't you shed a tear
[02:59.34] They've got enough black gold
[03:02.90] For another year
[03:08.36] We'll just have to wait and see
[03:14.40] If they've got enough
[03:17.36] If they've got enough
[03:20.30] If they've got enough
[03:22.53] For you and me
