lyrics

Woke up in the morning
cripple to the well
take a shot of poison
blow it all to hell
check oil on the donkey
points on the mule
Don't care how I get it
gonna get me some
drink it from a bucket
or the barrel of a gun

gasoline gasoline gasoline
keep my motor running
keep my motor clean

Going to the city
shifty like a bum
alligator pretty
see the savior come
the crowd it begged for mercy
it's such a crying shame
He came down for the chili
but if he gets his way
he's going back to heaven
in a sky blue chevrolet

Nitro-tated water
venezuela crude
cheap alaska wine
whatcha gonna do?
motor lubrication
keep it in a can
mixing down with diesel
caught the fever german flu
went and told my mama but
she didn't know what to do
