Steve Forbert - The Oil Song слова песни




"Oh the engine`s gone dead," cried the men who work thereAnd she passed up the dock on the wide DelawareThen the ship ran aground and the oil got awayAnd they penned that report, "The Big Spill" on that dayIt was hundreds of thousands of gallons galoreStretching thirty-two miles down the Delaware shoreThere were geese in the marshes out looking for foodThey got stuck where they stood in the oncoming crudeAnd it`s oil, oilAh, drifting to the seaOil, oilDon`t buy it at the station, you can have it now for freeJust come on down to the shoreline where the water used to beIn the well-charted waters of the Nantucket shoalsThere`s a ship run aground full of oil, we were toldIn a week`s worth of rough winter weather and wavesThe boat started cracking and it could not be savedIt was seven-point-six million gallons this timeConsider the danger and think of the crimeAs it poured out a slick stretching into the tideOver hundred-miles and yes, it came deep, it came wideAnd it`s oil, oilOil pouring in the seaOil, oilOh, don`t buy it at the station, you can have it now for freeJust come on down to the shoreline where the water used to beThere`s talk of some writing found in the ship`s logSaying one of the helmsmen`s unfit for his jobAnd the ship`s gyro compass was six degrees shyTheir charts were outdated but they, they tried to get byAnd you know it`s oil, oilYeah, pouring in the seaOil, oilDon`t buy it at the station, you can have it now for freeJust come on down to the shoreline where the water used to beYeahhhNow both of these ships, like a great many moreGot registered in through Liberian doorsInspections are quick and regulations are fewJust sign on the line and go find you a crew, yesOne of these ships was the Olympic GamesThe Argo Merchant was the other one`s nameWell it`s sad, but it`s true, things got worse for the seas`Cause I ain`t even mentioned Amoco CadizAmoco Cadiz, between England and FranceThe big super tanker out there taking it`s chanceWith its one-hundred-thousand black tons of the slimeAmoco Cadiz spilled the most of all timeYes, ya` know it`s oil, oilMan, it`s creepin` in the seaOil, oilOh, don`t buy it at the station, you can have it now for freeJust come on down to the shoreline where the water used to beNow down in the Gulf east of Mexico WayThere`s something gone wrong, so the papers all sayA Mexican oil well is leaking it`s gooThey say it`s the worse that things have ever come toYes it`s gallons of sludge, sixty-million and moreIt`s cruising and oozing towards many a shoreYes, things have got bad but they will probably get worseIf you can`t drink the oil, oh, you might, you might die of thirstBecause it`s oil, it`s oilAnd it`s creeping in the seaOil, oilDon`t buy it at the station, you can have it now for freeJust come on down to the shoreline where the water used to be
