Oil Well Blues


There ain't nothing mama : no use
There's a long distance well : and it's blowing oil that's all

Ain't nothing to hurt you : it ain't nothing that's bad
It's the first oil well : that *your* ??? ever had

I'm a long distance driller : and I work every country through
Going to stop working : if I bring in this well for you

I'm a mean old well driller : and I been a driller since I been a man
Ain't going to stop drilling : till I strikes that *Woodburn sand*

I got a [mean] reputation : and they call me Drilling Sam
When I starts to drilling : you hear women hollering too black bad
