The Crude Oil Blues - Jerry Reed[00:00:01]
Well now listen people let me tell you some news[00:00:06]
I'll sing a song called the crude oil blues[00:00:10]
We're low on heat n all[00:00:12]
We're low on gas[00:00:13]
And I'm so cold I'm about to freeze my self[00:00:15]
We got the crude oil blues[00:00:18]
'Cause the winter time sure gets cold to the bottom of my shoes[00:00:20]
Well my hands are shakin' and my knees are weak[00:00:26]
But it ain't because of love[00:00:29]
It's from lack of heat[00:00:30]
I'm gonna tell you a story anout this drunk I know[00:00:32]
He kept his basement full of homemade brew[00:00:39]
But the winter got so bad it screwed up the boy's thinkin'[00:00:42]
He got so cold he had to burn all his drinkin'[00:00:45]
He's got the crude oil blues[00:00:48]
He said the wintertime can sure get cold to the bottom of your shoes[00:00:50]
He said burnin' this booze just destroys my soul[00:00:56]
But there's one thing about it honey[00:00:58]
When you're cold you're cold[00:01:00]
I've got the crude oil blues[00:01:02]
Well when we made this record there was a little bit of doubt[00:01:24]
Whether or not the ting was ever gonna come out[00:01:28]
I said "hey chief you reckon this record will be released "[00:01:30]
He said "Son we ain't got enough oil to keep the pressed greased"[00:01:33]
We got the crude oil blues[00:01:36]
And son if we can't make records then we don't need you[00:01:39]
I said "what am I gonna do if I can't sing and pick "[00:01:44]
He said "well just keep yourself warm playin' all them hot licks[00:01:47]
We got the crude oil blues [00:01:51]
Oh mama don't forget to bring in the brass monkey[00:01:57]
And remember what Albert Weinstein said that coolin' is condusive to cuddlin [00:02:04]
Honey I love ya but pass the duck down hey I read a sign on the pump at my[00:02:13]
Favorite gas station the other day [00:02:23]
It said uh "he who expecteth nothin' ain't gonna be deceived[00:02:26]
