Chad Cooke Band - Oil Man lyrics

Oil Man – Chad Cooke Band There ain't a darker night than the ones I've seen When you're too damn tired to even dream But you come alive when the doghouse screams Oh the oil field's dark as money is green There ain't a headache like the ones that come Between a two week hitch and a seven day run Blood, sweat, spit and a filthy tongue Oh the oil field hurts like a snake bite stung (Chorus) So I'll send a card for Christmas and birthdays missed And I’ll sign the papers for the woman that I couldn’t kiss And I'll take the blame if I don't make the good Lord's list But when I die I hope they know it was all for them Cause I'd do it all over again There ain’t nothing in the world like earning these stripes Then getting put out of work when the price ain’t right Yeah I left my soul, my pain, and my strife Oh the oil field holes are filled with my life (Repeat Chorus) Well this hard hat and steel toes on my feet Built the roughneck man that I’ll always be Yeah and I did it all for my family Oh rig up, rig down, this patch just might bury me
