"DRILL BABY DRILL"...

"Drill Here Drill Now" Lyrics

Hello...is anybody out there listenin' in Washington D.C.
This is the suffering voice of America crying out for relief
Now I don't know what a gallon of gas cost up on Capital Hill
But we sure know what it costs down here in "Realityville"
And the damage already done has been a mighty heavy toll
And if we're gonna fix it we gotta start right here at home

CHORUS

Drill here, drill now
How 'bout some oil from our own soil that belongs to us anyhow
No more debatin' we're tired of waitin' everybody shout out loud
Drill here, drill now
Every time a foreign tanker pulls up to our shore
They got us over a barrel while they blood us a little more
And think how much it costs just to bring it all that way
And how many American jobs that'd make if we were drillin' in the USA
Oh and God forbid if our oily friends should decide to cut us off
We'd be standin' around with our britches down now listen to me ya'll

Repeat Chorus

Well the winds of change are blowin'
Yes and we recognize that need
But tractors, trucks, cars and planes can't run on tomorrow's dreams
So while we're workin' on the future we can't ignore today
Cuz who knows how much time the alternative might take
Somethin's gotta be done right now cuz friends it won't be long
Before this great big country comes grinding to a halt.

Repeat Chorus

As gas prices continue to increase, Congress continues to blame others while ignoring practical steps to stop the pain Americans are feeling at the pump. To lower gasoline prices and reduce our dependence on foreign oil, we need real solutions to our energy challenges.

As big country fans, we have a feeling this song is destined to become a huge hit. It's masterfully captures the sentiment of Americans who are tired of paying too much for gas while Congress does nothing about it.
