Gasoline

Sheryl Crow

Way back in the year of 2017
The sun was growing hotter
And oil 
Was way beyond it's peak
When crazy Hector Johnson 
Broke into a refinery
And the black gold 
Started flowing
Just like Boston tea

It was the summer 
Of the riots
And London sat 
In sweltering heat
And the gangs 
Of Mini Coopers
Took the battle 
To the streets
But when the creed 
Was handed down
For no more trucks 
And no more cars
They threw cans of petrol 
Through the windows 
At Scotland Yard

Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free

When the Mounties stormed 
The palace of the Saudi family
They held them up for ransom
Without disturbing 
Their high tea
But their getaway was shaky
They stalled 
In the Riyadh streets
Cause you 
Can't make it very far
When your tank is on empty

The final can of gasoline 
Was loaded on a truck
And driven through 
The streets of Agra 
To the palace aquaduct
You see 
All the majesty of worship 
That once adorned 
These fatal halls
Was just a target to the angry
As they blew up the Taj Mahal

Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
will be free, will be free

Gary ran a market 
Way down in Tennessee
Where all the farmers 
Got together 
And talked about 
This great country
But when the government 
Turned 
It's back on farming
Man, what I hear
They dragged the pumps 
Out of the ground
With a big vintage 
John Deere

I've got soldiers 
On my payroll
Standing guard 
On my front drive
Snipers on the roof 
Poised at those
Who don't want me alive
Cause they audited my taxes
My family under threat
Cause I've got a message 
And a megaphone
And I'll scream it 
To the death

Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free

You got the farms 
In Argentina
Making fuel 
From sugar cane
You got the bastards 
In Washington
Afraid of popping 
The greed vain
Cause the money's 
In the pipeline
And pipeline's 
Running dry
And we'll be 
The last to recognize
Where there's shit 
There's always flies
