Van Dyke Parks - Black Gold Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I had seen the Captain drinking
  • When he took that stinking cargo out:
  • Without a doubt he went too far
  • I don't Know what he was thinking
  • But He will take us out to Sea
  • Eighty thousand metric tons of Crude
  • A crew of twenty-one
  • Just ajar Her Screws in Motion
  • War pounding through the ocean
  • All the Stars rotating in their canopy
  • Black Gold
  • Rolling in The Hold
  • Black Gold
  • Time Would Now Unfold
  • To This Black Gold
  • Back and Forth
  • In Time For Every Swell
  • The Heavens Fixed
  • Upon Our Last Farewell
  • Then She hit the water with a shudder
  • It had got her
  • As She went down
  • "What's Up?" Sez
  • Heard to utter was the Captain In his cups
  • "In My Gut I Know We All are Doomed!"
  • She broke up
  • A hemmorage of Oil gushed
  • A Rage abroil from the soiled foil of her Hull
  • And She was pulled beneath
  • the Waves into her grave down in the gloom
  • Black Gold
  • My Heart is Still in Pain
  • Black Gold
  • Bounding On the Main
  • All This Black Gold
  • My Mandolin Will Tell Her How I Feel
  • An Agony of Ebony and Steel
  • What great balls of fire felt for miles around
  • A river spelt an Ess of oil slitherin
  • To Leave Your Blackened
  • It Is not Romantic in the morning
  • And never mind Come Hitherin
  • Slick Stick On the Shore
  • Seaside panic scores of frantic Birds
  • Yet antic as they slog through all
  • It augurs as an Ecologic Nightmare to be sure
  • Black Gold Hades'
  • High Command
  • Black Gold Nature's
  • Upper Hand
  • All This Black Gold
  • With Ladies in Mercedes on the Strand
  • The Tar Upon her Car and in the Sand
  • I'm The Way The Ressurection:
  • I'd say on Him reflecting
  • With what we're doing Here
  • For sure He'd want to
  • Down the deepest trenches
  • As their cadavers hold palaver
  • And the gravity of their endeavors
  • Christ
  • I'm not sure He'd feel secure
  • Lead us clear out of this Dark
  • Man Is stewing in his stench
  • Cleverly Converts them Into Shark
  • Black Gold
  • My Heart is Still in Pain
  • Black Gold
  • Bounding On the Main
  • All This Black Gold
  • My Mandolin Will Tell Her How I Feel
  • An Agony of Ebony and Steel
