Oil Price Blues

Hear a demo version of the song:

This is a 12-bar blues in E.

Going to the gas station, well, it sure is neat
Gotta pay five dollars to drive fifteen feet
Well, it's bad, It's worse every day
But you know those high oil prices, they're sure going to make you pay

People worry 'bout paying gas bills every day
While those old oil men get a big rise in pay
Well, it's bad, It's worse every day
But you know those high oil prices, they're sure going to make you pay

Living in my apartment's got me on my knees
Seems like half my paycheck's going to those utilities
Well, it's bad, It's worse every day
But you know those high oil prices, they're sure going to make you pay

Gas prices so high, can't stand to drive on the street
Now I would stay home but I can't afford the heat
Well, it's bad, It's worse every day
But you know those high oil prices, they're sure going to make you pay

People got to get together, gotta help each other out
If we don't do something, everyone's gonna shout
That it's bad, It's worse every day
But you know those high oil prices, they're sure going to make you pay
